downpression

Rastafarian for "oppression" because oppression holds you down, it does not lift you up ("opp").

"Jah come to break downpression,
Rule equality,
Wipe away transgression,
Set the captives free."
- Exodus, Bob Marley

downpressor man

Peter Tosh, of Bob Marley & the Wailers, wrote a song called Downpressor Man. It's about the fact that the elites who have oppressed and exploited people and nature throughout history will have to suffer the consequences of their actions. In the end we reap what we sow and there is no where to run to...

To call someone a downpressor man is to remind them that they are connected to the rest of the world and will suffer with it.

Don't be a downpressor man. Money is just paper. It's just money. Don't sell your soul.

docupression

Clinical depression onset by excessive consumption of documentary films.

Dave just sits at home all day, watching Netflix documentaries and ranting about 9/11 conspiracies, privacy, and corruption. I think he has a severe case of docupression.

He needs a stiff dose of "How to train your dragon"
