Whether they crave internet points or run out of arguments in a heated discussion, some people BS way too much. But the overwhelming amount of lies shouldn't discourage us from calling them out. On the contrary. Think of it as herd immunity: the population is protected from a disease (a fake narrative) after vaccination (a response) by stopping the germ responsible for the infection being transmitted between people (destroying that absurd fantasy with facts).
There's even a whole subreddit dedicated to this noble quest, /r/quityourbullshit. With over 1.3M members, it accumulated a large collection of screenshots and images of people calling out BS, delivering burns so big, they might just set your screen on fire.

Peta is America's number one petkilling machine, just because Ingrid Newkirk believes that people shouldn't have pets. So People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals have found a simple solution: If you kill all pets, they can't be treated unethical again. It sounds sarcastic but it's the sad truth.

Africa Is Pretty Diverse
Why can't people just be African or American? Why is it so important to further divide them into 'White African' and 'African American'? Some think doing this makes them more inclusive, but to me it just sounds like advanced racism
I hate that in the attempt to find an even ground it has suddenly become worse with open racism on both ends. It's saddening that I get hate comments for " looking like every other white girl" simply because I'm white and am open about my thoughts on world peace . It's even more upsetting that nazis and the kkk are bigger than ever feeling enabled and supported by Americas unendingly and openly racist president spewing his uneducated hate whenever he can and offering nothing but denial when he is called out for his actions. Not to mention his undying sexist comments and his multiple unacknowledged rape accusations.

Most people it pisses them off, stop calling people African its not a country. Also stop calling people American, America is not a country it is 2 continents with multiple countries.
Load More Replies...im very confused, africa isnt a nothern part of a continent it is a CONTINENT,but yes comeing form a couloured( yes its an excepted term in cape town, meaning we are mixed and proud of it)South african i and light skinned almost white and i am a AFRICAN
The response to this would just be laughed at. I pointed out that Dev Patel is English not Indian although he is of Indian origin and basically everyone called me racist. Trevor Noah argued that a black person cannot be called French and must be called African. This is literally what the far-right argue, that you must be white to be European and even if you are born here you cannot be called English or whatever.
Most albinos in Africa would like to be forgotted, I'd say. https://www.health24.com/News/fake-sangoma-murderers-target-albino-body-parts-for-rituals-20180430-3
Load More Replies...Not to mention that by Nayyirah’s logic, there are no Afrikaners or White Americans, nor are there Mexicans. So she is spewing more b******t than a male elephant with diarrhea.
Technically most Americans are European. But if you yell that to them after they yell at you to go back to Africa they wont understand what that means
Load More Replies...There are no black Americans, however. There are African Americans. Now why is it that in the USA such a classification wherein such an grievously general (and often inaccurate) nationality is forcibly imposed on an entire population of people whose history within the USA often dates back longer than most faired skin "Americans" have. So, to be fair, there is No such classification as simply American, if you're also black. Keep it 100.

This is just a collection of stupidities, and there are many of them indeed. However, please, remember social media and the world is much bigger than this. (This is supposed to be an optimistic comment, btw. But take it as you will ♥)
Daria B- I enjoyed your comment and knew that you meant it to be optimistic. Please ignore the bitter troll who thought to act as your English professor. The lack of understanding lies not in your comment but in her lack of comprehension and empathy.
Load More Replies...While it is easy to dismantle most lies noawadays, it has become so easy to create them. And sensationalist sharing seemingly legitimates them. The only cure is to be vigilant. And to punish those who spread lies with no further attention. Imagine everyone doing it... Populists and their media appearances would disappear in no time.
Wait! I went through the entire set of 40 - no bananas like in the lead-in photo on the main page of BoredPanda. Or did I just miss a hidden call-BS moment?

Load More Replies...Having to lie on social media already shows that some of these people have some serious issues and then the extent some go to to lie is a problem in and of itself. If you are anti vaxxer that is your choice, but please stop using debunked information to justify your stance. Claiming certain political views is fine, but know what you are talking about before you start ranting. My point is no matter how you believe there is a right and a wrong way to express your opinion.
Yes, Buster, (from Arthur) people *do* sometimes just go on the Internet and tell lies.
With all the "article 13" and stuff comming up, can someone implement a "fact checker filter" that sorts out such b******t before it goes online? Nah, just kidding. I don't want ony of that. Freedom of speech and stuff... at least it may deliver a good laugh with such dumb posts.
It should not be freedom of speech if it knowingly causes harm to the general public. Try yelling "fire" in a movie theater.
