“Beating a dead horse” is an old saying/idiom in the US meaning “that a particular effort is futile, being a waste of time without a positive outcome,” such as flogging/beating a dead horse, which will not compel it to do useful work. Maybe it didn’t land as well
I thought it would.
That was actually sad to read, even being a hypothetical situation.
Because they don’t have to beat it afterwards? 🤷🏾
What the fuck is wrong with you?

For reals. Those human empathy/nurturing emotions are strong.
