Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A pejorative term used in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and New Zealand to describe a leveling social attitude seen as jealous and spiteful towards people of real accomplishments. Someone is said to be suffering from tall poppy syndrome when his or her academic, artistic, economic, scientific, social, or political prominence attracts resentment by those who lack such prominence, being perceived as presumptuous, attention seeking, or without merit. Alternately, it is seen as a societal trait in which people of genuine merit are criticized or resented because the attention given them elevates them above their peers. Tall poppies could once expect to be cut down. |
