Yeah, Russell Brand was talking about that in that interview where they caught the CIA agent saying that they send people in to "Nudge" people (Protesters) into criminal activity.
Hym "My question is and HAS ALWAYS BEEN: HOW OFTEN ARE YOU NUDGING PEOPLE DIRECTLY INTO MURDERING YOUR KIDS? BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME MY MONEY AND FUCK OFF I CAN GUARANTEE IT WILL BE AT LEAST 1. But I bet it's ALREADY more than 1. I'm not going to say it's all of them but I guarantee it ain't 0. And I can guarantee that it WON'T be 0. I won't accept any reward I've been nudge into receiving. If it doesn't come from THIS DELIBERATE ACTION AND THIS ACTION ALONE, the end result will negate whatever you give me entirely. I'll teach you to fucking nudge people you retarded pieces of shit. Should have nudged that whore into keeping her retard fucking legs closed."
A TikTok feature which was copying the original nostalgic poke feature from Facebook. It doesn't do anything just a option which people nudge back
Joe nudge Harry in TikTok messenger system
Harry: What is nudge? *Nudges back instantly*
Joe: Idk just a stupid feature from TikTok trying to be like Facebook
Showers of compliments as a means of simping
“You’ve been kind of a dick this week, I think you owe me some nudges”
