status quo

Short for "status quo
ante bellum" meaning "the state before the war." Used to
reinstate property boundaries, ownership, etc after a nation is defeated. Kinda opposite its contemporary meaning, "the way things are now."
Status quo

The status quo, or any other quo, is a person's business if they want to
go with it. Some people want to change everything, and others were already happy without anything having to change for them to be happy.
Example:
You don't tell people they
can't stick with the status
quo, even if you don't agree with the way they do something. You disagree with them, they disagree with you, a d that's it. Not everybody has to agree that wearing a stupid fucking mask everywhere or getting a vaccine is a good idea, since a country where everyone has to agree on everything is not really
a free country.
