About

Libbed Out and Libbing Out are catchphrases and slang expressions used by liberal voters ("libs") to joke about a prior feeling of positivity about a progressive, liberal political agenda. In memes, Libbing Out is said to have a blinding effect that, when viewed in hindsight, was negative because it limited the person's scope of the real world's politics. Usage of Libbed Out surfaced en masse after the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election when Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris lost to Republican nominee former President Donald Trump.

Origin

The first known usage of Libbing Out was posted by X[1] / Twitter user @Eve6 on July 12th, 2021, who wrote, "libs are pulling ligaments libbing out…" gaining over 120 likes in three years (shown below).

The first known viral usage of the phrase surfaced on August 22nd, 2024, when X[2] user @BlackLanterrn quote retweeted Meghan McCain (daughter of politician John McCain), writing, "She's libbing out," gaining over 13,000 likes in three months (shown below).

In the following months, viral usage of Libbing Out and Libbed Out surfaced en masse. For instance, on November 2nd, 2024, X[3] user @CoachLewGrizz tweeted about VP Kamala Harris, Chappell Roan and John Mulaney all appearing in an episode of Saturday Night Live coinciding with the rumor that Iowa was voting Democrat.
