Every time I hear someone say ‘eh’ in a questioning tone or to mean ‘um actually’ I lose my shit. Or even just to play something down.
Like I literally come to hate the person instantly. Its a very strong feeling on a very small sound.
Instant downvotes if I see it on Lemmy too. HATE IT.
How about all y’all?
“It is what it is”. This cliche is symptomatic of learned helplessness and only serves to protect the status quo against any sort critical analysis and reform.
It’s sad you feel that way. We can’t magically change the weather today, it is what it is. But if we keep pressuring businesses and politicians, we may be able to mitigate it for future generations.
pressuring businesses and politicians doesn’t matter much if the people themselves are living their lives in a hypocritical way.
