A Facebook comment has gone viral on social media for shutting down an anti-vaxxer with a biting comeback. Per <a href="https://www.boredpanda.com/antivaxer-question-vaccines-answer/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">BoredPanda</a>, the comment in question picked up interest after it was shared on the Reddit forum <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/MurderedByWords/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">r/MurderedByWords</a> - where Reddit users can share all manner of deep burns, verbal putdowns, and savage comebacks. The post in question was shared by a Redditor going by the handle <a class="_2tbHP6ZydRpjI44J3syuqC _23wugcdiaj44hdfugIAlnX oQctV4n0yUb0uiHDdGnmE" href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Slackbeing/">u/Slackbeing</a>, and was titled: "<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/MurderedByWords/comments/diq6aj/antivaxer_gets_his_meme_shot_pointblank/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Antivaxer gets his meme shot point-blank.</a>" <img class="size-full wp-image-12625269" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/ceaa0eb0-screenshot-2020-11-25-092532.png" alt="A Facebook meme." width="691" height="776" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] The Facebook meme was an example of the image macro series "<a title="Philosoraptor" href="https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/philosoraptor">Philosoraptor"</a>, and was captioned: "How is my unvaccinated kid a danger to your vaccinated kid if vaccines work?" Not wanting the meme to pass unremarked upon, another Facebook user (whose identity was not been disclosed) promptly took to the comments to respond. In a lengthy post, they wrote: "Your unvaccinated kid is a risk to every kid, not just the vaccinated ones." <img class="size-full wp-image-12625273" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/7399ff35-screenshot-2020-11-25-094320.png" alt="" width="681" height="852" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] The comment continued: <blockquote>"As I'm sure you can recall from the hours of immunology lectures you had to attend the vaccine efficacy rate varies from vaccine to vaccine, but none are 100% effective and of course it would be imbecilic to expect them to be. That as I'm sure you will recall from your high school lessons in epistemology and logic is what is [known] as a Nirvana fallacy, but I'm sure I don't have to explain such a basic failure of critical cognizance to somebody as learned as you. [sic]"</blockquote> <img class=" wp-image-12625279" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/622ac06a-vax-1.jpg" alt="A vaccine. " width="852" height="444" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Pexels]] The commenter went on to say: "Anyway, back to your little pox rat. "As you know in a given population the serostatus will vary, when you allow for the immunocompromised and the inevitable seroreversion it becomes clear that every unvaccinated person becomes a risk not only of spreading VPDs but also of becoming an incubator for viral mutation, further increasing the risk to society. [sic]" <img class="size-full wp-image-12625280" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/ddc0d67a-screenshot-2020-11-25-094335.png" alt="A Facebook comment. " width="639" height="397" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] They added: "Anyway glad I could clear that up for you, now when you have a minute do you think you could see your way clear to back up your ridiculous claims that the flu shot caused 50,000 deaths and chemo causes cancer because people are starting to suspect you are just talking out your *ss. "Nice meme by the way, but why doesn't your velociraptor have feathers?" Suffice to say, a number of other Redditors were clearly impressed by this brutal tirade, and the post has currently accrued over 58,700 upvotes as of the time of writing. <img class="wp-image-12625283 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/62a14c39-screenshot-2020-11-25-100421.png" alt="A Reddit comment." width="1066" height="195" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] <img class="wp-image-12625284 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/aa2df460-screenshot-2020-11-25-100609.png" alt="A Reddit comment." width="1118" height="229" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] <img class="wp-image-12625285 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/449e0f93-screenshot-2020-11-25-100632.png" alt="A Reddit comment." width="1017" height="216" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] <img class="wp-image-12625286 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/11/a3e82b90-screenshot-2020-11-25-100403.png" alt="A Reddit comment." width="1003" height="480" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Reddit]] For instance, in the comments below, <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Mugen593/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">one Reddit user</a> wrote: "He even murdered the visual accuracy of the velociraptor in the meme, it's a killing spree." Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Gullflyinghigh/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">someone else</a> added: "Came for the murder, was entranced by the pox rat, learned from the science. Excellent."
