I saw this bug under my bed, with its legs ripped off. Any idea what it is?

I have no knowledge about bugs but it looks like an earwig with those pinchers.

Yes it’s an earwig

That explains why some of the legs are differently colored, since some of them are antenna

Why were it’s antenna and legs ripped off?

It looks like it had a fight with someone and he lost. Odd he was not eaten but maybe he wanted to eat whomever he fought with.
