The act of pushing aside normal emotions and facts that are sad, unhappy or bad.
Showing positive emotions or positivity has become a new form of moral correctness.
Natural emotions and opinions about something that are not positive are now seen as bad.
Ever noticed on FB how many are doing the "10 Days Gratitude" Challenge? And other challenges that pushes themselves to become a better self? I get that and it's great.
See how many likes a post on facebook gets when it is a picture of someone on a holiday, birthday, a pretty cake, etc. That's all great too.
Now, when someone even whispers something that is unpleasant to know, even if it is the truth, most people start running off in different directions, as if someone just threw a grenade on the floor.
Modern norms have indoctrinated us to identify, categorize and label speaking the truth about bad things as negative behaviour. And they have learnt to avoid "negative people". Heard of the term "Don't shoot the messenger?"
Embracing good things while avoidance of the bad is plain denial. A false positive behaviour.

As it is taboo to be negative about something even though it is a pragmstic view, one is pressured to fake being positive about it.
The project framwork done by the leader is weak and his subordinates are being false positive about it.

The house was in a mess, things were everywhere, I had a mess-rage.
People who reshare your facebook post but did not acknowledge it by liking it
I have a friend, he is a poser poster. He keeps resharing my posts on Facebook because they are good but has never "Liked" it out of decent courtesy.
