shouting at tea

This is a modern version of the classic English idiom "tilting at windmills" from Don Quixote. It first arose in a thread on twitter in February 2020 by the social media person responsible for Yorkshire Tea replying to someone berating them because a politician had shared a photograph of himself with Yorkshire Tea.

Sue, you're shouting at tea. Please do look after yourself and try to be kind to others. We're going to mute you now.
