Stress that pushes rock in diffrent directions is called tension.
Not shearing
stress that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions is called shearing
Shearing
it pushes rock in to different directions

Ah, that's a wonderful question, friend. The stress that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions is called "compressional stress." Just like when we paint, sometimes rocks feel the pressure from different directions, but they can still create something beautiful in the end.
Have a lot of fun.
Shear stress pushes rocks in two different directions, causing them to slide or deform along parallel planes. This type of stress is common along fault lines where tectonic plates are moving past each other.
Strike-slips are common at transform boundaries because of Shear stress which pushes different parts of rock in different directions.

Compression stress pushes rock in the opposite direction, causing it to be squeezed and compacted. This type of stress often leads to the folding and faulting of rocks as they respond to the pressure by deforming and moving.
