Congratulations to the winner(s) and commiserations to the loser(s). I hope that is non-political enough to pass muster.

Oh My ! Don't say things like that around here. Some of us are old and frail.
As a patron of the former soapbox, or to be fair and balanced, a former patron of the soapbox, I can only say "good riddance".
If ever there was a place for time spent farting into the wind, it was there.

Not sure how Allen[^] would have felt about that, but at least it's better than UD's definition.

The democratic process in the republic dictates that anarchy and tyranny remain low so that the community can participate in a federal election rather than be totally controlled by the oligarchy so as to elect a new monarch for the next 4 years, or so we all hope and pray for.

In the same vein as "false-economy", but in regards to progress -- "false-progress".
Such as, "We haven't written the code, but we created a branch for it!"
My boss is just so intent on "showing progress" even when none exists.
He: We need to develop a faster-than-light ship by the end of the year.
Me: That's impossible.
He: We just have to show progress.

If there isn't, might I suggest "faux-gress"?

That isn't quite this, but I hadn't heard it.
I'm also trying to avoid things which inhibit actual progress, such as "My pants are still in the dryer, but I put my shoes on!"

We don't know what it is, but we know a lot of things that it isn't.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

False economy means cutting costs now but causing it to eventually cost more.
