when they go low, we go submarine

A riff on when they go low, we go high. Meant to indicate an intent to respond to incivility or violence with GREATER incivility or violence. Gained popularity during the 2023 Titan submersible disaster.

Michelle Obama said, “When they go low, we go high” but I think that's bullshit. I think that when they go low, we go submarine

when they go low, we go high

Used to indicate an unwillingness to stoop to an adversary's incivility or violence

No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high. With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us

-Michelle Obama
