Short for "status quo antebellum" meaning "the state before the war." Used to reinstate property boundaries, ownership, etc after a nation is defeated. Kinda opposite its contemporary meaning, "the way things are now."
See the status quo warrior in his natural state, unconcerned with or in favor of homophobia, transphobia, institutional and/or overt racism, etc. while he reclines in his easy chair, mocking social justice warriors online.

Status Quo Joe
A person who follows the herd, he does what everyone else does, nothing more or less. Someone who has no ambition for anything, no passion or drive to accomplish something special. The female version is an ordinary mary or plain jane.
I thought about asking Ted to start a business, but I knew he would say no to anything unique. He's a status quo joe. passionless, ordinary, ambitionless, no ambition, boring, average, nothing special, basic bitch
