    "If 'outrage' meant a lynching or rape a mere 150 years ago, how did it come to express something as trivial as one starlet’s retort to another?"https://nyti.ms/2ILUWyC

        I think there's some irony to the NYT posting about the expanded definition of"outrage".

        They weren't outraged to lynch people back then, they posed for pictures with the hanging bodies. Maybe you guys should focus on real news. Or just retire. Either one.

        If ‘trivia’ used to mean ‘place where three roads meet’, how did it come to express the NYT’s disdain for modern word usage? Words change meaning over time, would be the answer.

        Trump says that it is outrageous that the EPA protects the environment there is some of the old scale. Thought is chaos, Ideas are ugly, words are lies.

        Well, ultimately "outrage" derives from the Latin "ultra," meaning "beyond." As in an act that passes beyond the bounds of acceptable behavior. It came to mean not rape but violent excess in general probably because that's what we associate with "rage" in English.

        Do articles regarding Islamic fundamentalists ever use the word 'outrage' or is it just reserved for banal political upset and and the so-called 'entitled' millennials rejecting to 'triggering' content?

        I will give you outrage. Trump makes a rule to separate children from their parents...loses those children ...then Trump blames Democrats. That is Outrage. @realDonaldTrump
