Woke Jeopardy! host Ken Jennings has been condemned by an online transgender mob for playing one of The New York Times' online games.
Jennings, 52, came under fire after he admitted to playing the Spelling Bee word game in a post he made on BlueSky, the left-wing alternative to X.
'My wife and I have a game where we try to invent the day's grossest-sounding word on NYT Spelling Bee,' Jennings wrote, with a screenshot.
But a transgender BlueSky user calling herself Gwen Pepperoni was soon on the attack.
She was seemingly outraged that Jennings would admit to subscribing to a publication known for its increasingly-balanced coverage on issues including puberty blockers for children and trans women in female sports.
'I wish people who care about trans people could understand that playing NYT games is an insult to trans people,' Pepperoni wrote.
The game show host sarcastically replied to the post, saying: 'This may be true of others but I actually got express permission from the trans community to keep NYT games and recipes.
'I also have a news subscription, which is arguably worse, so I had to specifically send in a written request. Took 30 days but I got approved.'
That triggered a firestorm of transgender fury directed at Jennings, with many outraged he had even dared to question a member of their community.
'The knee-jerk instinct of allies to publicly ridicule and deride the feelings of trans women who make them even momentarily uncomfortable deserves examination,'
'The condescension dripping off of this is maddening.'
One user went as far as comparing Jennings' remark to someone giving themselves a pass to use the n-word.
'I'm consistently never disappointed but never surprised when a cis man turns out to not actually give a s*** about anyone except himself.'

So a guy wearing a dress is a woman?
Trans-Crazy
LOL playing puzzle games is now “Going after trans freaks” nah, trans freaks ARE freaks of nature..look at how miserable they are, they cut off their nuts and they are STILL miserable
Category - pronouns. That’ll keep ‘em busy.
” playing NYT games is an insult to trans people,’”
but calling yourself Gwen Pepperoni isn’t.
Btw, ‘trans people’ are actually an insult to men and women. There is no ‘trans’ there is only wardrobe, and cutting up ones body or taking chemicals to mess up the mind and hormonal balances.
Yup. Lunatics running the asylum.
They always have to be a victim of a new Holocaust, the new pioneer breaking new ground...
“... playing NYT games is an insult to trans people,’ Pepperoni wrote.”
Makes me want to.....................
Rename the Phoenix Islands "Transylvania", gift them to the trans community and break all USA claims or responsibility for them.
Then deport all trannies to Howland and Baker Islands. 'males' on one, 'females' on the other. Revoke their US citizenship and let nature take it's course.
Pronousn category is a great idea. LMAO
I love it when the leftscum eat their own. Gotta make some popcorn.
Lay down with fleas...

Ken is an arch-liberal who lives his life as basically a conservative.
ah yes, Gwen pepperoni speaks up from the Island of Misfit Toys.
(Sorry. Couldn’t resist. And no, I didn’t make the pic. I just found it.)
Karma is a Hillary Diane Jezebel Rodham Clinton 😉😜
Says the freak whose entire world is defined by the look-at-me, look-at-me, pay-attention-to-me, you-must-agree-with-me-or-you're-fascist mindset.
