A supposed controversy that does not exist or is of little importance.
Examples
“It is a terrible shame that the media only helps to covers this up "as a national security measure⟳," while they serve⟳ us a diet of needless sporting events and contrived international political situations, >nontroversies< designed to distract even the most brilliant humans into complete⟳ and total docility.”
“You gotta be fuckin' kidding me. I never had a doubt⟳ in my mind⟳ that the audience was applauding for the song and not the political statement (it _was_ at the _end⟳_ of the song, recall⟳). Seems like⟳ a complete⟳ nontroversy to me. Furthermore, the remark⟳ is decidedly _not_ anti-abortion!”
“This will, I hope⟳, be my last⟳ post⟳ about astrology for a while. Until and unless, at least, some other nontroversy pops up.”
