The *"He's already dead"* meme comes from *The Simpsons*, specifically the episode *"The Day the Violence Died"* (1996). In the scene, a group of kids brutally beats up a character named Chester J. Lampwick. As the attack continues, a horrified boy (a young version of Hans Moleman) shouts, *"Stop! Stop! He's already dead!"* The moment became a meme, widely used to humorously comment on situations where someone is being excessively defeated, criticized, or humiliated—especially in sports, politics, and online debates. It remains a go-to reaction image and GIF, symbolizing relentless overkill in a comedic way.
