📚damned if you do and damned if you don't

✍🏾Meaning

If you say "damned if you do and damned if you don't" you're saying that no matter what someone does, they'll be criticised for it.

❕For example

🔺The school is in one of those "damned if you do and damned if you don't" positions. If they ban junk food in the canteen, the kids will say their rights are being infringed upon, and if they don't ban it, others will say they're damaging the kids' health.

🔺If I keep playing music in the same style, some people say I'm repeating myself, but if I change to a new style, other people say I'm just following fashion. I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't!
