Morphology
fuck + it
The phrase's meaning ('resignation/indifference') is related to the force of the expletive 'fuck' combined with the pronoun 'it', so a learner who knows both words might infer a sense of strong dismissal. However, the pragmatic and idiomatic use, register (vulgarity), and scope of meanings (resignation, defiance, or deciding not to care) are not fully predictable from the parts alone, making comprehension uncertain for a B1 learner without prior exposure.
Etymology
Fuck it is a short, rude phrase people use when they decide to stop worrying or give up. One simple image is someone saying fuck and pushing it away like a problem they do not want, so the phrase means 'to stop caring' or 'to give up'.
