A famous catchphrase of the renowned psychologist and phylosophical thinker, professor Jordan B. Peterson, referring to the fact that instead of starting to complain about our national or global problems, we should rather focus on what we can do to improve ourselves, our family, our local community, the spaces we are personally responsible for (like our rooms).
"This capitalist system really sucks, I'm going to do everything to overthrow it!"
"I'm not sure you are qualified to do that safely in any way. Instead, you could set an example and improve things in your immediate sphere of competence! Clean up your room, for starters!"

A 7-Up TV advertisement from 1999-2005, which featured comedian Orlando Jones wearing a green t-shirt that said "MAKE 7" on the front of it, and "UP YOURS!" on the back of it. Jones would then walk around and tell people to "Make 7-Up Yours!", where he would get responses like an angry insulted guy yelling "Same to you!"
This advertisement actually became so popular that shirts similar to the one Jones wore became available for sale through many gag-gift catalogues, record/CD stores, and Media Play entertainment centers.

ORLANDO JONES: I'm the guy who makes 7-Up, and I also write the advertising. I just came up with a great new slogan - "Make 7-Up Yours!" *points at front of shirt* "Make 7", *points at back of shirt* "Up Yours!"...

PLAYBOY: You once stuck a Barbie up your ass during a show in London, claiming it was a protest against consumerism. Is it possible there's a less personally invasive and painful way to protest consumerism?
BRAND: If there is, I haven't found it.

Pull up your diaper! Whining and cowering and generally behaving like a baby will not solve the problem. You need to do something about it.
