Hold back the tide

verb phrase: Trying to stop something that is clearly inevitable or already unstoppable. Putting effort into controlling a situation that has moved beyond anyone’s ability to stop it—often while pretending things are still under control. Like standing on the shore believing you can keep the ocean from coming back in: you might delay it for a moment, but the tide always returns.
“Once the news hit social media, trying to keep it quiet was like trying to hold back the tide.”
