Ana Kasparian, one of the co-host of “The Young Turks,” really got the internet all fired up on Thursday when she decided to tear into the whole “woke trans inclusive” words being used by progressives that she says are “degrading” to women. Keep in mind that Kasparian is pretty far to the left herself, so these comments coming from her speaks volumes about how transgendered individuals and their movement are slowly starting to lose favor with the vast majority of society over this ridiculousness.
“Kasparian, an unapologetic member of the Left, has caught flak from some extremists on her side of the aisle in the past for engaging in debate and discussion with people on the Right, most notably Daily Wire emeritus Ben Shapiro back in 2021,” the Daily Wire said.
“I’m a woman,” the pundit said in a tweet published Thursday. “Please don’t ever refer to me as a person with a uterus, birthing person, or person who menstruates. How do people not realize how degrading this is? You can support the transgender community without doing this s***.”

Going head-to-head with a critic from the radical Left complaining about inclusion, Kasparian then said, “I have zero problem with inclusion. None. But there’s gotta be a better way than boiling it down to a body part, no? Especially in the context of having reproductive rights taken away from people who just see women as a baby-making vessel. That’s all I’m saying.”
Lizz, I have zero problem with inclusion. None. But there’s gotta be a better way than boiling it down to a body part, no? Especially in the context of having reproductive rights taken away from people who just see woman as a baby-making vessel. That’s all I’m saying.

And in news that will not shock a single soul who reads this publication, radical leftists came crawling out of the darkness like a gaggle of cockroaches to attack Kasparian and call her all kinds of nasty names. You know, like “transphobe.” Don’t worry, guys. Eventually, this term will come to be as meaningless as being called a “racist” or “homophobe,” due to both overuse and incorrect usage and application.
“Oh f*** off with this made up bulls***. Trans folks are having their existence in state after state and you want to whine about this s***,” a male user said in a response to Kasparian.
“Ana Kasparian going mask off transphobe bigot was not on my 2023 bingo card,” another attack said. Because asking to be respected as an actual human being, a real and legitimate woman, biologically, is a great offense to the transgender crowd. Which is funny, because they demand that same treatment, but refuse to extend a similar courtesy.
“She’s choosing bigot-mongering optics over marginalized folks,” a Twitter user alleged.
Another post read, “I prefer my feminism to include everyone. My womanhood isn’t threatened by the existence of non binary or trans people. Why is yours?”
“Literally no one is earth is telling you that you cannot call yourself a woman or that they won’t refer to you as a woman. A completely made up problem,” someone else charged.
Kasparian was backed up by her co-host and founder of The Young Turks, Cenk Uygur, who retweeted the viral post that started the whole mess, and made it clear he supports her, even when they are in disagreement with one another.
“If you think I’m going to tell my female co-host what she can call herself or what words she’s allowed to use, you’re nuts,” he went on to write. “And you don’t know me at all. We do something radical at TYT, we let everyone have their own opinion. I know it’s a novel concept in media.”

When another keyboard warrior on Twitter responded to Uygur’s tweet saying his co-host wasn’t going to “learn” from her “inappropriate tweet,” he responded by saying, “This kind of patronizing attitude makes people loathe far-left extremists. Who the f*** are you to say that Ana should ‘learn’ what to say? Here is a man explaining to a woman what she should call herself. This mansplainer probably pretends to be a progressive.”

There were a few responses from the right as well:
You are about to learn something @AnaKasparian https://t.co/V3v6dtCEOr

Yes you do. I just hope you're prepared for the blowback and won't back down or apologise for wanting to be called what you are.

I regret to inform you that you have just endorsed literal genocide

Just keep in mind that going along with what they’re doing is the only way to support them. You either join them in their hostile takeover of what’s real and true or you don’t.
