the tragedy

Meaning 9/11, it was created by jschlatt often to refer to 9/11 without directly mentioning it - either to make it funny or to avoid demonetization.

Schlatt: Stop submitting the tragedy!

Grief tragedy sympathy hope

Hopefully instead of cops everywhere reacting with rage over the news about deaths of young fellow officers, they treat their lives as people treated the life of George Floyd, even if these guys didn't look like you, they were just people that wanted to improve the lives of the people around them and they were happy to be alive trying to do that when they were alive. The grief tragedy sympathy hope industry tries to make horror or shock stories to headline the news, and really that does more harm than anything else to what these folks were really about, to focus on things like death all the time.
People that look like anybody can end up like these New York City cops, but how often do you hear much about their lives besides a few seconds on the news, then there is another story. The grief tragedy sympathy hope industry might want you to feel a certain way (sad, angry) about something, but they don't tell you that you don't have to if you don't want to.

Politicizing The Tragedy

a Republican LieSpeak term: "The Tragedy" is of course some entirely avoidable horror, generally a large loss of life, and generally this occurred due to some policy that Republicans fully support. "Politicizing" is being used here as a synonym for "Doing something about it (to prevent it)"

Thus "Politicizing The Tragedy" is a form of LieSpeak that enables sociopathic people to actually flip the script and call people out for wanting to do something to stop the horror.
-After each deadly house fire without a fire department, the small town tried to set up a fire department paid for with town taxes, but the anti-tax crowd always screams that setting up a fire department and raising local taxes to pay for it is Politicizing The Tragedy.

-The Nazi screamed at me: "What do you mean that we must do something to stop the needless killing? You want to stop the killings? No, the killings must go on, and you are the monster for trying to stop them because you are Politicizing The Tragedy!"

Grief tragedy sympathy industry

Of the things the grief tragedy sympathy industry shows you on primetime TV, the coronavirus statistics seem dull this time of year because they are all year, but it takes something like extreme weather to wake people up.
The extreme weather is a refreshing thing to see after watching the same dull coronavirus numbers and statistics bullshit that is aired by the grief tragedy sympathy industry all year since 2020.
