Keep you safe 

"Keep you safe" or "stay safe" is an ambiguous and vaguely menacing phrase to keep people in line, a bit like when a gangster offers a business protection in return for a small fee. In order to stay safe, one must avoid things such as scientific fact, critical thinking, divergent opinions and basic civil rights. Instead, follow the soyence, and get all your misinformation fact checked. This phrase used to be known as "for your safety" or "for security purposes".
"We are installing cameras in all restrooms to keep our customers safe."

"In order to keep you safe, you must follow our guidelines and abandon independent thought."

"We want all our stakeholders to stay safe. That is why they will have to have microchip implants to access basic amenities. To keep you safe.'

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
