The internet is forever. Once you put something out into the cyberspace ether, you lose control over it. No amount of effort to delete or pretend it never happened will rival the online sleuths who will find a way to get hold of receipts and throw them back at you when needed.
This is especially true for those with a penchant for posting contradictory hot takes. Some of them are infamous names in their respective industries, all of whom are getting harshly roasted using two simple words: “This you?”
We’ve collected some of those satisfying burns and compiled them into this list. Enjoy scrolling through and be sure to upvote your favorites.

Don't You Remember 2023?
Hypocrisy - one of the defining characteristics of the modern self-identified 'conservative'. Once upon a time, they were better... Whatever criticisms might be directed at Ronald Reagan, he was at least courteous. 🤷♂️
Who Cheers Hoping American Companies Fail?
These posts are from the This You Comebacks subreddit, an online community dedicated to calling out the hypocrisy of public figures like celebrities and politicians.
But what exactly about hypocrites draws a person’s ire? According to psychological scientist and Harvard University professor Jillian Jordan, it’s seeing the misrepresentation of the individual’s moral character.

The Time I Reminded A Racist That Their Tweets Are Public
If you’re waving a confederate flag, guess what? You’re most definitely a racist.
“People dislike hypocrites because they unfairly use condemnation to gain reputational benefits and appear virtuous at the expense of those whom they are condemning–when these reputational benefits are in fact undeserved,” Jordan said.

Does This Count As A This You Comeback
Hypocrisy puts morality in question, which is why people will never admit to it. According to social psychologist and educator Daniel Stalder, it’s also why politicians will deny such a label and instead perceive themselves as making “politically smart decisions.”

I Wonder What Changed
“In addition to denial and rationalization, we may lash out at the accuser in an ad hominem attack,” Stalder wrote. “ If we’re caught changing our position for less-than-noble reasons, we can say we’ve 'evolved.’ It’s a pleasant-sounding alternative to being a flip-flopper”
What Happened To It Being Fake?
The Real “Gender Ideology” Is Insufferable Cis People
Toxic (fragile) masculinity is as nasty to men as it is to women. We'd all be happier and healthier without it!
Much like a haphazard social media post, it would be nearly impossible to take back a hypocritical statement or behavior. However, Stalder says we can address our inconsistent actions in less biased ways, beginning by acknowledging the wrongdoing.
The next step would be to find a way to move on, regardless of how long the backlash from the hypocrisy lingers.

The Cognitive Dissonance Is Wild With This One
'A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.' - says nothing about the right of any individual. "the right of the people" - collectively. The US politicians who made that change to the US constitution knew exactly what they were doing when they used the phrase 'the people' rather than 'each person'. The words they chose makes it very plain they did *not* intend that each and every person should be permitted to 'keep and bear Arms'. I realize that me making this rather obvious point will trigger an awful lot of people. 😉
“It is normal to be inconsistent in the complex lives most of us lead,” Stalder wrote. “How we respond when made aware of it seems more important. Although biased responses are normal, we can also try to acknowledge and take responsibility.”
Cancelled Your Netflix Account Two Times. What Is The Big Deal?
This about Dead End: Paranormal Park? That show was cancelled three years before those dumbasses even heard of it, and I'm still pissed off, that show was my hyperfixation for a good year and how I met some really good freinds. I'm so sad it won't ever get the ending it deserved.

What An Absolutely Stupid Thing To Say. Oh Wait Its Shapiro. Nvm
Actually it wasnt him. See this Ben Shapiro is a Talk Show host living in Florida, and the other was a different Ben Shapiro, a Real Estate Agent in LA. See morons, dont realize there could be more than 1 person with a common Jewish name. This has been well debunked as a random Jewish real estate agent who happens to have the same name.

I already knew the USA was in a bad way. It might have been better if more attention had been paid to hypocrisy from other places. We have quite a lot of that kind of thing going on here in the UK...
Isn't the UK on their 7th prime minister in the span of 10 years? Good luck over there.
