“Be a goner” = người/vật vất đi -> nghĩa (lóng) là đối mặt với sự thất bại, trừng phạt, chết chóc đang đến gần, không thể tránh khỏi.

Ví dụ
The filibuster (bọn giặc cướp) should be a goner. Good riddance (tống khứ). This anti-majoritarian (chống chế độ chủ trương đa số quyết định) rule in the U.S. Senate allows 41 senators to block most legislative proposals with certain exceptions.

“When I asked my pulmonologist early last year what my chances of survival [from COVID-19] would be, his response was ‘You’d be a goner,’” Caretta said.
