basic bottom line

expression

Meaning:
The simplest, most important truth in any situation — what it all really comes down to before anything else. It’s the raw core, the emotional or logical essence that stands before the usual bottom line, often hidden beneath layers of explanation, justification, or complexity.

Extra:
The basic bottom line comes before the bottom line — it's what everything else is built on.

Origin:
Popularized by Catalin Andrei Rajka, a Romanian creative and thinker known for concise expressions of complex thoughts.
"The basic bottom line? I started this because I needed to feel something again — all the rest came later."

"Before anything got complicated, the basic bottom line was just this: I missed her."

"Forget the strategy, the basic bottom line is — he couldn’t let go."

You're not better than me. You mind doesn't work better than mine does. I'm not changing my mind. I'm not working until I'm old like the rest of you pieces of shit.

Wow, that couple is so fucking cool. That guy with the backwards hat with that cool kinda attitude is so fucking snappy with it and that girl is kind of a fast acting chick too with a quick sense of humor as well. Damn, they must be a bottom duo.
