A conservative social media personality was called out for her viral "fake outrage" over a gender-neutral bathroom.
Josephine Harvey at HuffPost:
A right-wing social media influencer was ridiculed and fact-checked after melting down over a gender-neutral bathroom at Kansas City International Airport. InĀ a videoĀ posted on X, Morgonn McMichael filmed herself walking into the restroom, complaining that it was a ācrazyā concept. āI hate this,ā she says in the clip. āI have never seen an all-gender bathroom. I am not going in here.ā āIf you SUPPORT āall genderā bathrooms youāre either a creep or a freak,ā she wrote in a separate post. But as commenters noted, she had no need to use the bathroom if she didnāt want to. A reader context note was added to the bottom of McMichaelās post, pointing out that there are gender-specific bathrooms available in addition to the gender-neutral one. The bathrooms are in the new terminal of the airport, which opened in February last year. The facilities were built under a policy supported by the Kansas City LGBTQ Commission.
Justice Horn, chair of that commission, replied to the post personally. āFirst, these are single stall, all gender bathrooms that allow for greater privacy. There are gender specific bathrooms down the hall too,ā he wrote. āFinally, donāt use my community to create fake outrageāitās sad.ā He also noted that inclusive policies benefit āall of us.ā āFathers with daughters, mothers with sons, folks with disabilities, those traveling with elderly loved ones, and LGBTQ+ folks,ā he wrote. āSingle stall, all gender bathrooms create a space that meets folks where theyāre at.ā
On the website of Turning Point USA ā a conservative youth group āĀ a bioĀ for McMichael describes her as a Gen Z content creator who speaks about āfeminism, cancel culture, free speech, and conservative values,ā and āconfronts the American culture war head-on.ā Amid backlash over her complaint, she doubled down. āThe left just loves protecting groomers and advocating for āall genderā shared bathrooms to make lgbt people comfortableā¦.I wonāt apologize. āAll genderā multi stall bathrooms shouldnāt exist,ā she wrote in another tweet.
Morgonn McMichael, a right-wing influencer who works for Charlie Kirk's Turning Point USA, posted an unhinged viral video about her hatred for all-gender restrooms in the Kansas City International Airport's all-gender bathrooms in a bid to gin up anti-trans faux outrage.
McMichael doubled down on her transphobic complaint about all-gender restrooms, by baselessly stating that "the left just loves protecting groomers" and declaring that all-gender restrooms shouldn't exist.
