From Conservapedia

Selective outrage is when the media or a group of people becomes completely hysterical over what one person or group of people says or does (usually Conservatives), but ignores and/or censors when others (Non-Conservatives) say or do similar or worse things.

Examples

Liberals scream bloody murder over the deaths of Cecil the Lion or Harambe the Gorilla, but applaud Planned Parenthood brutally murdering unborn babies and selling their organs.

Bernie Sanders supporters are always complaining about how evil Capitalism is and how fair and equal Socialism is, but are blind to see how Socialism is a "too good to be true" system that has drawbacks way worse that its potential benefits, and has failed miserably every time it has been attempted in history, most notably in Venezuela today.

European Union

Despite the European Union taking a tough stance against countries such as Poland and Hungary for refusing to accept Muslim refugees, and against the United Kingdom for voting to leave the organization, Germany was found in 2018 to have broken the most EU rules.[1]

Violence against Trump protesters is considered one of the worst things in the world, but when protesters commit acts of violence against Trump supporters, they either blame Donald Trump himself, say that they (his supporters) "deserve it", or deny that such violence is happening altogether.

Although the Left has been colluding with Russia since at least the 1930s (including during the Trump Administration), they go hysterical over unfounded claims that conservative Donald Trump somehow colluded with Russia.[2]

Freedom of speech and religion

Liberals harshly criticized Poland, a conservative-leaning country, for passing a law restricting free speech that accuses Poland of being complicit in the Holocaust,[3] yet they had no problem with the many existing laws stringently restricting free speech in Western Europe,[4] as well as restrictions and even outright bans on homeschooling in many Western European countries.[5]

Freedom of the press

Liberals, particularly the media, obsessed about President Trump's perceived attacks on press freedoms (though they were only verbal attacks). However, they ignored actual abuses of press freedom committed by the Obama Administration.[6]
