Tone-deaf
If you say someone is tone-deaf, you mean they are insensitive to the situation, mood, or emotions of others.
They fail to read the room — and their words or actions feel awkward, inappropriate, or even offensive.
Examples:
1- After hundreds of job cuts, the company sent out “We’re Growing!” emails — and it felt completely tone-deaf.
2- At her friend’s breakup dinner, she brought her fiancé and talked about wedding plans. No one said anything, but it was so tone-deaf.
