    Every faggot and transgender asshole should be shot full of holes.

    A progressive media host is doubling down after she enraged liberals by insisting women should not be referred to as “birthing persons” or
    “persons with uteruses.”

    “The Young Turk” co-host Ana Kasparian laughed at the backlash she
    received after calling transgender “inclusive” language “degrading” to
    women last month. Progressive journalists and transgender activists
    accused her of being “right-wing.”

    “[Laughing out loud]! The meltdowns over wanting be referred to as a woman rather than a ‘birthing person’ is pretty wild,” she responded on Twitter
    on Monday.

    The far-left host insisted she’d never apologize for taking this stance.

    “I’ll never apologize for that, especially as a biological woman who has
    had a f–king lifetime of being told I’m less than,” she added.

    “I’m a woman. No apologies,” Kasparian fired back.

    Many of the same progressives who criticized her original tweet also took offense at this unapologetic statement.

    Several on the left pleaded for Kasparian to stop tweeting about the issue
    or accused her of bigotry.

    “You’ll be on J.K. Rowling’s level of TERFyness within 2 years at this
    rate,” Mississippi Free Press news editor Ashton Pittman tweeted.

    The founder of “Race 2 Dinner,” an organization that invites White women
    to be lectured about their privilege and racism, mocked Kasparian. “You
    win the Oscar, Emmy, and Grammy for Most Toxic White of the Weekend. Bravo
    for you,” Saira Rao said.

    Transgender activists insisted no one was referring to a woman as a
    “birthing person.”

    “That’s not what’s happening,” Charlotte Clymer, an activist formerly with
    the Human Rights Campaign, retorted. “When referring to the whole
    community of people who are capable of pregnancy in the context of
    pregnancy, repro advocates use ‘birthing person’ to include trans men + nonbinary people. No one is arbitrarily calling individual women ‘birthing person,'” Clymer tweeted.

    Fox News reported last year how the Biden administration and liberal
    groups across the country had repeatedly dropped words like "mother" and "woman" in order to appease the transgender community.

    A transgender drag queen running for Congress in 2024 told Kasparian she
    was wrong and warned transgenders were under attack.

    “I really don’t understand why you’re still tweeting about this. How many
    times a day are you being referred to as a “birthing person” in real life? Knowing the intense scrutiny & hate trans people are facing rn, along
    w/the hundreds of anti-trans bills, couldn’t you just not?” the candidate tweeted.

    Transgender attorney and activist Alejandro Carabello warned Kasparian
    that not using inclusive language could lead to “dire” results, linking to
    a 2019 report where a transgender man, a biological woman, was not given
    proper medical care and delivered a stillborn baby.

    “No one is using that term to describe you personally, it’s in reference
    to the population. When language isn’t inclusive in medicine, the
    consequences can be dire. These are the real issues instead of making
    yourself the victim,” Carabello wrote.

    Fox News reported last year how the Biden administration, congressional Democrats, and liberal groups across the country had repeatedly dropped
    words like “mother” and “woman” from their language in order to appease
    the transgender community.

    More recently, major companies like Nike have turned off customers by
    paying transgender activists like Dylan Mulvaney to model women’s
    clothing.
