Being online comes with the ever present risk of being exposed to some of the hottest, dumbest and most brain-melting takes of all time. But every now and then, a hero arrives and hits them with the most savage roasts out there.
The “Conservatives Getting Owned” X page is dedicated to screenshots of bigots, conspiracy theorists and fringe economists being publicly humiliated. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments sections below. Remember, be nice!

Billie Piper must be so embarrassed she married this man. He is an awful human being. Good of her to divorce this pillock.
Give money to à poor person, and it goes right back into the local economy. Give it to à rich person and it will end up on a numbered account somewhere in Switzerland or the Bahamas.
The “Conservatives Getting Owned” X page has been around for a while now (since that auspicious year of 2020), and has accumulated an impressive 356 thousand followers. In this day and age, most of us know not to pick fights online. After all, there is no “winning” , just a battle to logging off in the mud.
This is perhaps why this page succeeds, as it does a vital job of showcasing the times where folks with questionable ideas had those same ideas obliterated by words. The idea of a person deciding to “report a crime” online no doubt came from pages like this. If that’s not enough, remember, there are all sorts of cases of people owning themselves.

Yes, let's elect people to give us gun rights over those that give us health care rights. Then when there is no health care we will have enough guns to hijack planes to places with health care.
Funny thing is trucks have any number of practical purposes and uses other than causing death. How many uses does a gun have?
to my lovely LGBTQ+ pandas, we support and love you!
Racists really are hard of thinking. Just like the homophobes, the sexists and the transphobes.
I mean saying “we wouldn’t be here today if people didn’t do what they did yesterday” makes sense in literally any scenario. Insinuating that these current circumstances are the best things could ever possibly be and past human cruelties were inevitable is kind of weird and very unfair to those who suffered.
It IS true however that communism the idea is fair and good. But as soon as humans are introduced into the mix, thing turn to s**t pretty quickly.
India is constitutionally socialist. The reason so many people are still poor is because of the capitalist business men
And the old caste structure. Like the ridiculous class system some still believe in UK.
Load More Replies...The OP is inadvertently pointing out that the common thread is the Authoritarian, not the Socialism.
Capitalism's major flaw, is that it operates on whoever has the most control of money. If you do not think money has made puppets out of our government, then maybe those requests to donate to political parties are being sent to your spam folder. 'Corporations are people too', should have caused panic...
I appreciate some may think I was knocking capitalism. Acknowledging a thing has flaws, is more genuinely an appeal to seek ways to fix them. The greatest flaw many point out in our process, is rather the human element corrupting it. We need informed democracy, not pay-to-play government.
Load More Replies...I get the clever comeback, but I also think that some people in the US have a limited understanding on the very various meanings of 'socialism', 'EU style'. Just because the 'Socialist party' won the elections does not mean that the economical model is not capitalism, nor that they wish to implement that model according to Marx, for whom it should be the first step towards Communism. It's not a binary thing lol. Where I live people complain more about 'Ultra liberalism' (US model) and globalisation, not so much 'capitalism'.
Compare that with Japan where corporate executives make ten times the average worker's wage, not a thousand. And they have the same size office. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjeTTQKRfWU
That's exactly how I imagine an extremist capitalist country to end up.
Socialism is NOT Communism. Why do they get so often mixed up, especially in the USA? Is this connected with only two parties to choose from? In very short: Socialism is the working class directly electing the government from a wide choice of programs/parties (by this controlling the government), payment is according to work delivered, wealth is distributed to create equality (the European health system works like that, everybody pays a monthly contribution, so it is free in case of need), private property exists, social classes exist. Communism is the government owns and distributes everything, no private property and social classes exist.
I fully get your point, but Socialism was technically intended to be the first step towards Communism. As you know, 'Socialism' in Europe is about having the State intervene more in either the economy or public policies, or both (Health is a good example). What you described 'Socialism is the working class directly electing the government from a wide choice of programs/parties (by this controlling the government),' is just basic democracy. Socialism as we experience it in Europe, is just about more state intervention.

Why does every person who hates socialism also not understand what socialism is? Oh, wait, I answered my own question.
Finland, apparently, does many things differently, among them how speeding tickets work. The speeding driver has to pay an amount of money that’s proportional to their income, so for corporate leaders and other rich people who drive way over the speed limit, the cost can be in the thousands of dollars.. 🙃
Seeing black and white rich and poor, is part of the problem. Integrate both systems and more
Both missed the point. No matter what, the picture is the same. Maybe the type of government is not the variable you're looking for. Maybe, just maybe, it's class.
Capitalism you have the opportunity to go from bottom to the top as difficult as it may be. Socialism, there is no opportunity.
Socialism isn't binary. It's not all or nothing. The USA for example may be one of the least soclaist western countries, but they still have the US mail, police, fire fighters, publicly paid-for infrastructure etc.

BP, the oil company not this site, supposedly was behind the idea of the carbon footprint, to shift attention away from them and to shift the guilt of environmental damage into us all as individuals.
You get a big fat zero. Which, coincidentally, is the amount of brain cells that Angela has.

Look up Ben Shapiro buying wood in support of home depot.
They will probably pull "a politician" and drown out anything he says with incomprehensible noise
Those microchips are magnetic. When I was vaccinated I ended up stuck to the refrigerator for three days.

$30 million could have bought homes and provided support networks for the homeless.

Thanks! Check out the results:
It’s interesting how human rights like LGBTQ+ rights, trans rights, women’s rights, POC rights etc have become something that only one side supports - and the other side is the one complaining about “divisiveness” when they’re called out for their unfair uneducated views. Actions have consequences 🤷♀️
It's become increasingly worse. We're getting to the point where having manners is "woke" because why be nice to people when you can be as rude as possible in the name of, I'm not sure what, patriotism or something? If some right wing podcaster decides it's a left wing thing to wear shoes, right wingers will stop wearing shoes. And then they'll look around and see that right wingers aren't wearing shoes while left wingers are, and that will cement wearing shoes as a left wing political statement.

i consider conservatives to be traitors to humanity. theres nothing good about any position they support. at all.
Take the 30 million and redesign an old school or hotel into housing units. People need a place to live NOT a study on their circumstances.
These kind of posts are so annoying. It seems like all that's on here now is negative reddit posts (cheating, bad bosses, etc), upsetting political c**p, and bashing of other people. I want more of the good stuff. The cute animal posts, interesting science facts, funny memes. There used to be more positive stuff on here
I don’t understand. Why politicize a post and cause divisiveness? Couldn’t it just have been snappy comebacks or epic burns like in the past on BP?
You have an unusual concept of the word "wait".
