Yeah no fuck off, I can think of contexts where someone can be mean or cringe or both and yet be faultless.

If your somewhere where being "cringe" or "mean" is socially-acceptable, then I guess sure you've managed to find the loophole. Congratulations.

If you do something in a social situation that can be considered cringe, rude, mean, or offputting, then contextually speaking the action would be considered inappropriate to the social situation as a whole, or in today's Layman's Terms you'd be "awkward af", and people would likely not want to "chill" with you. Depending on where this social situation is occuring they may ask you to leave, or force you to leave.

But I don't really want to debate social ethics and moral philosophy with you as it's tedious and frankly annoying, especially in regards to something so minor. Sooooo yeah no fuck off.
