Definder - what does the word mean?

What is doom and gloom?

The first fan to enthusiastically proclaim the Mets to be the best team in the league when they're on a hot streak then denounce them entirely when they hit a rough patch

Bob: "The Mets lost 6 in a row! They suck! They all suck! Even deGrom!"
Tom: "Weren't you just saying that deGoat and the Polar Bear were going to bring the Mets to a World Series championship like last week? You doom and gloom Mets fan."

Doom and gloom - what is it?

The hypothesis that a large proportion of the people in the developed world would lack the critical thinking and quantitative skills required of a 21st-century citizen, because the politics of nativism, populism, and racism plaguing their societies have directly or indirectly brainwashed or radicalized them.

Thanks to Trumpism or right-wing politics, clothed under white supremacism or white Christian nationalism, millions of adults and children have fallen victims to the gospel of doom-and-gloom math, who blame millions of immigrants and refugees for stealing their blue-and white-collar jobs and for invading the promised land of their forefathers (who did the same thing to Native Americans).

What does "doom and gloom" mean?

Rhyming slang for Zoom. Especially when describing the joyless form of communication with other people via video call rather than in person.

Person A: Shucks, I cannot wait until we can actually meet again in person.
Person B: I know, it sucks, I guess we'll have to arrange a call on the old Doom and Gloom?
Person A: Doom and Gloom?
Person B: Yep, Doom and Gloom - Zoom.
