Jumping croc🐊 experience guide in NT: “I am all for protecting crocodiles, and I would love to get people to stop buying crocodile handbags, gloves, and even eat their meat etc. But I know I am a hypocrite😅 because I do the same with livestock. Therefore I know it is an emotionally charged opinion, and it is not a hill I will die on.”

Or it means that someone is approaching a situation with unbeatable odds or something extremely unlikely to be successful🫣.
