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.

The first art work created in space was a small colored pencil drawing of a sunrise by the Soviet Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, first person to walk in space (1965). To cope with weightlessness, the pencil box had a rubber wrist strap attached to it, and each pencil was attached to the box by a string. Photo of drawing and pencils: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/aug/31/first-picture-space-cosmonauts-science-museum-alexei-leonov Leonov, still alive at age 85, is a fine artist who has created many paintings of his space walk and related subjects – check out “Alexei Leonov art” on Google Images.
Guy should have watched 3 Idiots (movie). Wouldn't have posted this.
Everybody should make sure the information they share is real and true. I do. I don't post much. People want "likes". They don't have much self love and look for that kind of post to direct attention to themselves and feel important. It is a sad sad world.
Let's be honest though...why did you post what you posted. It's not exactly a novel idea...you knew everyone on here would agree with you. Maybe you were seeking positive affirmation, and a little bit of attention. Whether conscious or not...

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.

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.

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.
