Abstract: In this article I look at indignation narratives from a sociological perspective. Indignation can be a legitimate response to injustice and a force for social change. But what happens when it becomes selective? Which injustices become visible, which identities are emphasised, and which voices are heard or excluded? I also look at polarisation, media narratives, the public “front stage” and the less visible “backstage” of society — and ask a simple question: What evidence would make us reconsider our own position?
