              The most favorite term of busybody psychos to hide behind with their thought stomping and overbearing behaviour.
              A Term used by emotional abusers and other mouthbreathers to justify their indifference to the harm they are doing by being deliberately blind to the obvious consequences of their own personal actions.
              Originally set to promote proud empowered behaviour that does not harm others ([not a single fuck was given] that day, as long as I did not do immediate harm to others). However, as with any other postivie and upbringing things it got hijacked and perverted by [power tripping] authoritarians to promote downbringing, dream killing and ignorance towards free will and [self determination].
