A furious female skateboarder has slammed Red Bull for sponsoring a contest where she placed second to her trans rival.
Taylor Silverman claims she and other cisgender female competitors were sidelined by officials at the Red Bull Cornerstone Contest, where she placed second and received a $2,750 award.
Trans skateboarder Lillian Gallagher was awarded $5,000 for placing first and winning two separate divisions - money that Silverman says should have been given to her.
Silverman, who has been skateboarding for 11 years, said when she tried to reach out to officials to 'do the right thing even if it's not the popular thing,
'I deserved to place first, be acknowledged for my win and get paid. I reached out to Redbull and was ignored. I am sick of being bullied into silence,' Silverman wrote in an Instagram post
The post has sparked an array of reactions, with users asking Silverman to have more empathy towards transgender women, while others have lashed out at her, telling her she simply needs to get better at skateboarding.
'I have been in three different contests with trans women, two of which I placed second.'
'At the last contest series i did for Redbull, I placed second. The trans competitor who won took $1,000 in qualifiers, $2,000 in finals and $1,000 in best trick.
'This totaled to $5,000 of the prize money meant for the female athletes.'
Silverman went on to add that she took a total of $2,750 and 'whoever would have placed third' lost the award due to the Gallagher's participation in the contest
Instagram users lashed out at Silverman, criticizing her skateboarding skills and insulting her performance.

All people aiding and abetting this madness should be ashamed.
Luke 17:28-30
King James Version
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

King James Version
3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

So am I.
So stop censoring the right on Twitter and Facebook.
So stop (very obviously) making fictional "sex harassment" charges against Elon Musk because he won't Globalist or Tyranny with you a-holes.
Mental image of Keith Richards in drag.
Are they not teaching about chromosoms in health class. One does not change from XY to XX by cutting off the penis.
Good one.
Who wants to bet Taylor and most of the “biological” (I can’t believe I actually have to write that word) women athletes vote straight democrat if they vote at all?
democrat voting women need to suffer for what they have wrought.
Typical woman, doesnt know w.t.h. she wants. I’ll bet she wants equality. Well, here’s your equality sister.
Srsly, do you want to compete on a level playing field or not?
Skateboarders like to think of themselves as independent, rebellious, or even Bohemian types. You can’t be a maverick in California if you just go along with the trendy set. Some skaters are already with us. Others need recruiting.
I actually believe the school has the moral high ground here. FWIW taking prayer out of school and God out of government has put us here. Having conversations we shouldn't need to have
Romans 1:28
So much for the feminism movement. I wish the left would figure out what they REALLY want, and then stick with it.
Only men in drag will be competing.. lol. Why not play soccer in pumps?
Red Bull gives you βthingsβ
I get that it's popular to pick on the Millenials, but I've gotta give them a little credit here. This is all Gen Z. Most Millenials I know are the ones speaking out against this crap.
There's a new kid on the block, and they think they can change the world one pronoun at a time.
If the trans trend continues, pro tennis and golf are next. It’s sad women are getting cheated out of prize money by a Marxist cultural obsession. It’s just not fair.
Taylor Silverman needs to join the MAGA movement and help us make the world sane again...
