The definition of moral panic is when "a condition, episode, person or group of persons emerges to become defined as a threat to societal values".
An example of moral panic would be the KlooKlucksKlan as they feared that black people were a threat to their society. Another example is the English Defense League which feared the widespread of Islam would disrupt the society that's been pre-established. A most modern example is Donald Trump being president and the end of the world as we know it as well as world war three.
