TikTok users have encountered a puzzling term – 'acoustic.' But what does «being acoustic» actually mean in the TikTok universe? The definition of this term might not be immediately clear, as it has taken on a rather ambiguous usage.

However, the usage of 'acoustic' on TikTok has stirred controversy, not because of any connection to unplugged music or sound dynamics, but due to its troubling connotations. Upon hearing the term 'acoustic,' you might naturally think of music. Most individuals with even a basic understanding of music would recognize an acoustic guitar and comprehend how the acoustics of a room can influence the way music sounds.

In certain videos and comments, you may encounter phrases like, «Why did [x] do that? Are they acoustic?» According to the Urban Dictionary, 'acoustic' is an intentional mispronunciation of 'autistic,' and it is frequently used in response to actions deemed «ridiculously stupid or ignorant» by the commenter.

With the UN climate meeting, COP28, just a few weeks away, we must spell out the role of the two main policy levers — fiscal and monetary — and the part that wielders of these two levers — governments and central banks — can play in the battle against climate change. To borrow, incompletely, from Karl Marx's posthumously published Critique of the Gotha Programme, 1875, the respective role of governments and central banks must be guided by the Marxian principle, 'from each according to its ability' — that is, it must be based on what each is best placed to deliver, without compromising their basic roles: governance, and monetary and financial stability. Unfortunately, this often entails a trade-off.
