45 Times Jerks Got What They Deserved By Getting ‘Destroyed’ In The Comments (New Pics)
As long as people throw around some questionable bits of wisdom like it's no big deal, we have the unofficial karma police, aka ‘murderers by words.’ Except murder by words has nothing to with violence, weapons, or blood, which makes the act inherently peaceful, yet brutally powerful.
It’s because the fight is fueled by words, but not by any words. I mean witty, well-argued, and solid arguments that pierce straight through misinformation, fake news, and any other online BS that's so prominent these days. The targets can be anyone from Covid deniers to anti-vaxers to flat earthers and extreme right Trump supporters who support the Capitol riots or similar bursts of terror. And when the words come back, they do so with double the initial power.
Thanks to the prominent corner of Reddit known as the subreddit “Murdered By Words,” the karma evening selection of putdowns, clapbacks, and counter-arguments are in to show that everything you utter in this world can come back to you. Psst! Part 1 of the post with people who got brutally shut down is available here.

Beautifully Pointing Out How Jack Doesn’t Know Why A Vaccine Is
Previously, comedy writer Ariane Sherine told Bored Panda that when it comes to witty comebacks, they can be both planned and totally spontaneous.
"I've definitely come up with comebacks that are spontaneous. For instance, I told my daughter that if she didn't behave, I'd give her inheritance to a donkey sanctuary. She said, 'You wouldn't,' and I came back, 'You bet your ass!' But though I hadn't used that comeback before, I clearly had knowledge of the pun and might have used something similar in the past."
But not every comeback is equally powerful. The ones that make us thank the lord it’s not us who received them have to be well-timed, super-fast, exceptionally witty, and totally understandable to everyone. If it’s super complicated or said at the wrong time, or worst, in the wrong place, you can get scolded with an agonizing moment of silence.
Dammit George!

I'm very much against violence towards women, but Katie Hopkins might have turned out to be a more worthwhile human being if she'd been punched in the face a little more often for saying things like this.

What does "esthetic nightmare" (sic) even mean? Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know, all trans people use "he" or "she" or "they" which are existing pronouns in the English language that no one formerly complained about. The difference is that a person gets to choose which pronoun they want to be addressed with.
There are a lot more pronouns than that. Google it to learn more. Ze, xe, and fae are a few that come to mind. Singular "they" is also an adjustment. That being said, none of it is hard. Language is always changing, and "esthetic nightmare" is just Elon Musk being a self-centered, entitled, bigoted, drama queen.
Load More Replies...What a hypocrite. If someone says their pronouns are she/her, use them. Easier than pronouncing his child's name.
I think Elon is talking about people who refuse to use English word pronouns and come with things like xe and zxir and stuff. It would have been a somewhat valid point if his kid’s name wasn’t 9WHjojp479.
Load More Replies...Can I agree with them both? His kid has a stupid name, but the amount of “neonpronouns” that look like random scrabble tile draws is... a lot. At least a lot of people have cottoned on to there being ZERO point in everyone having their own pronouns, because pronouns take the place of names and if I need to remember three extra words for every individual I’ll just use your name instead. I mean I’ll call Elliot Page by male pronouns, and some people by “they” pronouns, but the people who are like “my pronouns are phlee/pleem/phleemself” I think are who Elon meant.
I agree with them both. I’m not calling someone Xe as a pronoun, and Elon smells his own farts and thinks he’s so special for naming his kid something cringy. I just use “they” when people want to be called by cosplay pronouns. Nobody can ever tell you “they” is wrong.
Load More Replies...Still not seeing why people adore this guy. He has teams behind him doing a lot of the work - it's not a one man team doing everything for his companies. I feel like some don't know that.
he's smart enough to become the richest person in the world, but he's a pretty big a**hole
Load More Replies...That is a very good question. Elon's great at many things, but I dont think he should be a parent after doing this. He's literally setting up his kid to be f****d over by other kids over this. And we know that kids can be REALLY mean to anything different than their group.
Load More Replies...That’s not irony. He’s probably suggesting that all the nonsense pronouns like xim and ximself are ruining the esthetic when people can keep things clean and just use they / them.
Load More Replies...who calls their child XAEA12? it is literally 1. pronounced X-ASH-A-TWELVE, and 2. named partially after an aeroplane!
I have a hard time with non-gender pronouns, as well, for two reasons: 1. I was taught They Their is plural. 2. If I know someone as one gender and then have to switch up how I address them I slip a lot. That said - I still try and I don't judge - the problem isn't with them, it's only with my ability to properly use the correct pronoun - my apologies in advance. And I feel bad for Elon's kid - that name is a nightmare.
This really shouldn’t be on here. It’s nowhere near as bad as almost every other entry lol.
And he speaks english... want to follow that nightmare in a language with grammatical genders for words like in german? They push the idea of writing nouns in texts like "Hero*-ine". That is a nightmare to read
Jeez. Germans already have enough gender issues with der die and das.
Load More Replies...Elon is trash and can rot in hell for all I care. His name itself is ruining the aesthetic as well. But- I have some understanding. I support the trans community, and support people referring to themselves how they want. It can be hard to keep up as terms keep changing. For me, I am wrapping my head around the term "they|them" as it implies multiple people, but in this case it is referring to a single person. It doesn't mean anything transphobic, it is the english language (I am American) I am confused with.
yes, but what about, for example, "there's someone at the door, can you let them in?" or "there's a car pulled over there, i wonder if they're alright". it does often imply multiple people, but it can just as easily be used for a single person.
Load More Replies...... he deserves a lot more fire anyway ... that guy creeps me out, and that isn't an easy task.
He... spelled it right. It’s a different word, search it up.
Load More Replies...then i'm going to call you fred instead of mcmp. that's what you're doing.
Load More Replies...yeah, how could he accept the kid's name is beyond me. He should be wiser than that.
Elon Musk and Grimes (who now goes by one letter) named their son "X AE A-12"
Mr. Musk was not the right man to say that, but he does have a point. Eggshells hurt.
Ironic, considering you've included your own gender identity in your username.
Load More Replies...I know- there’s been several Celebs that have named their child COOCOO (as my late Mother would say) names and it’s in the “news” fir a hot minute & then goes away. LOL
Load More Replies...Or not.... esthet·ics (es-thet'iks) The branch of philosophy concerned with art and beauty, especially with the components thereof. Synonym(s): aesthetics.
Load More Replies...They did respond to the argument. They’re calling Elon a hypocrite.
Load More Replies...i think david has some underlying issues. go see a therapist little man
Load More Replies...Who's an edgy boy? You are! Yes you are! You're an edgy boy, yes you are!
Load More Replies...it's really easy to just be respectful and the attack helicopter bullshit is so old at least make it original

I Proudly Served In The Gay Wars Of '07
All Of A Sudden “Law & Order” Doesn’t Apply?
I love this chicks reply. This woman was told multiple times to stop or they WILL SHOOT HER!! Just because she was a woman and in the service does not mean she does not need to comply with the law. My niece is retired from the Marines and I would say the exact same thing if she were dumb enough to do what this woman did, thankfully my niece has common sense. It sucks she was killed but she broke into a FEDERAL BUILDING WITH SECRET SERVICE AND POLICE AND MILITARY OFFICERS!!!!
Pray Away The Gay
I guess it will take another 200 years before idiots understand that you can't "pray the gay away." But "therapy camps" are indeed perfect locations for gay people to meet each other. And it's true: Covid deniers often are homophobes, racists, sexists and white supremacists who also believe in practically every conspiracy theory they can find.

Seriously, people should wear masks at flu season. I’ve never been so healthy as I was the last year. When I get sick it can drag out for months (I’m not exactly healthy) and I have disabled friends who could die from a cold. If anything, Corona proved that we should keep in wearing masks and washing our hands, even after it’s over

As a 45yr old woman who has struggled with ADHD my entire life and was put on Adderall I can say it has saved my life. This will act as a hyper stimulant if you do not actually have ADHD and regulate you if you do. This is why people get all hyped up when they are on it because it can't properly do the job it was made for. I for one am all for putting someone on it if they are properly diagnosed with ADHD.
