In reply to the discussion: "Youre a f*cking idiot": InfoWars reporter stunned after he's brutally mocked by young girl [View all]procon
(15,805 posts)33. That probably came as a rude awakening for the infowars reporter.
It was probably the first time since he learned to pull up his own panties without his mama's help, that a female called him out. Evidently he's more comfortable when he's the one yelling at the people he has on camera, When that young person turned the tables on him, he was left completely speechless.

I don't think it was a trans thing. He was just, as she said it, a "fucking idiot".

On what basis other than your assessment of her gender do you make that conclusion? (n/t)

I didn't. AT ALL. I said she MIGHT be. The "I don't think so" response was much more declarative.

The strategy is classic. That's all I said... sorry, but you're grasping and for no good reason.

Girl, I have no idea what you are talking about. And perhaps the same is true on your part. (n/t)

I would say I agree generally but their insistent misgendering makes it more than a little bit.

Agree 10000% - it was just a possible reason for his offensive choice to call her what he did...

Unfreakinbelievable response. Where do you get off questioning if she's trans?

I'm not spreading ANYTHING. she was misgendered, plain and simple - a tactic used by the right.

He definitely is a fucking idiot. And if she is trans and he said that knowingly, doubly so. (n/t)

Yup, and in so doing, he demonstrates that misgendering is wrong and offends non trans people.

Either way, she won, and infowars lost. But knowing trans people as I do, raw outrage was familiar.

Here's hoping she never loses that sweet childhood innocence and truthfulness.

This is so illustrativ of how misgendering insults and offends. Transpeople are only one target.

Thank you for the link! It doesn't say she isn't trans, but she is indeed a bright young lady!
