less-lethal weapons

Rubber bullets, beanbag rounds, stun grenades and other projectiles fired by police at unarmed and non-violent American citizens. Such weapons can produce serious injury, permanent disability and death.
An 18-year-old man, struck in the head by one of the less-lethal weapons, suffered massive injuries. 'You could look down into the wound and see fractured skull fragments', said the EMT. Rubber bullets, fired by police from military grenade launchers, can cause internal bleeding, nerve damage and permanent injury to vital organs.

Weaponizing

I mean you're actively weaponizing the performative withholding of actionable of information in the form of imposed schizophrenia.
Guy "Right but we're weaponizing it so that you have to work as hard as I feel that people (generally) should have to work to do the things you're trying to or want to or need do."

Hym "And at the same time you're scheduling women to come fuck this retard... So that he doesn't need to actually go through the dating process that you're trying to force me to engage in... And you're acting keeping away women who express any interest... with literal schedule changes.... Because you don't like that Satan stuff... Ok... You seem like rational people who can actually be spoken to and trusted to arbitrate my fate... So... Arbitrate my fate... Is it death by brain infection? It's looking like death by brain infection... Actually a woman came up to me the other day (Because everyone know who I am) and said 'She had a tooth infection' with a dead-eyed grin and she didn't say it because it was an actual thing she was going through; she said it because she knew that I was going through it and that there is nothing I can do about it. I'm being performatively disempowered in a situation where my problems could be fixed immediately... As a matter of deliberate effort... Because I did a thing you don't actually have the balls to threaten or kill me over... Yeah..."

weaponized incompetence

A term used by bad managers and by friends, family members, and romantic partners alike in circumstances where they want somebody else to do things their way but they do not want to properly communicate what their way is (or where they are happy to wax on about frivolous details but never justify why said details would actually matter to anyone else).

They will describe whoever is doing a sufficiently poor job reading their minds as incompetent, and if they suspect you are doing a poor job specifically so that they'll have to meet their own ineffable requirements (if you want something done "right", do it yourself) then they will call it "weaponized" incompetence.

In their minds the term means "feigning not being good at a task to get out of doing it" but in practice such a campaign could only ever work when there's only one person who has skin in the game for the task to be done in a certain way to begin with.
"Don't you even know how to make me a sandwich? The pickles have to go on top of the provolone, and the mustard and mayonaise should never touch. You didn't even cut off the crust, and who slices a sandwich lengthwise? It *must* be diagonal! Fine, I'll make my own damned sandwich, but I swear you do this on purpose just to avoid doing it the right way. It's weaponized incompetence! *huff*"
