The term coined is 'sadopopulism'. Another person put it:
'50% of the American people are happy to live under a bridge in a box cooking a rat on a stick, so long as their neighbors don't have a box, a rat or a stick.'

One time when Lucy was around two, she pooped her pants in the car
I said “Lucy, did you poop your pants!”
“No Daddy,” said Lucy, “Rockso did it”
“Rockso pooped your pants?”
“Yes Rockso pooped my pants”
Rockso is a dog and was not even in the car
