rot economy 

Share definition Flag
Coined by Ed Zitron:

The rot economy is a growth-at-all-costs economy. The only thing that matters is growth of revenue, which comes from showing a never ending vomit stream of ads, rewarding managerial malpractice, and pleasing shareholders. Also see: enshittification
Ever wonder why Google results are getting worse, or why you aren't seeing your friends on Instagram? It's all because of the growth-at-all-costs economy that's swallowed the tech industry, where the user experience takes a back seat to monetizing every interaction with the platforms you used to love. - episode synopsis for “The Rot Economy,” from the Better Offline podcast

The Rule of Goats 

Share definition Flag
The Rule of Goats says that self-awareness or irony doesn't change public perception. If you fuck a goat, even if you say it's for the lulz or to prove a larger point, you're still a goat-fucker.

The saying was coined by criminal defense attorney Ken White of the Popehat Report. It's loosely connected to an Irish Pub joke about an old man who has multiple accomplishments but also once fucked a goat. In the end, nobody recognizes him for his achievements and instead only knows him as the goat-fucker.
Defendant: "I was only trolling when I said all those awful things."
Ken White: "The Rule of Goats applies."
