The Shame Machine
Book • 2022
In 'The Shame Machine', Cathy O'Neil explores the concept of shame as a tool that has evolved from promoting community values to becoming a destructive industry.
She argues that shame is exploited in areas like weight loss, drugs, poverty, and beauty, often leading to harmful outcomes.
O'Neil advocates for reclaiming shame as a means to bring about societal change by targeting those in power rather than the vulnerable.
