MODERATORS
I don't think that's quite right, although I know it's a common interpretation. For contrast, Boots is sincere but not cringe (at least, he wasn't in his prime some of his new stuff is kind of cringe).
Nah it's right. Boots kicks ass and I like him even more than I like Immortal Technique, but his sincerity would be what gets called cringe by someone who didn't like him
I've got plenty to criticize about Immortal Technique, most frequently using SV as a figure of speech or using slurs, but those are specific criticisms instead of naming a reaction. Cringe is a good word for joking around or manipulating cringers with the shame they're susceptible to, but it doesn't describe anything about a piece of media
