NBC’s Chuck Todd Ridiculed for Saying ‘Gender Is a Spectrum’
New York Post ^ | May 1, 2023 | Ariel Zilber

NBC’s “Meet the Press” moderator Chuck Todd was pilloried on social media on Sunday for suggesting that “there is a lot of scientific research that says gender is a spectrum” and that sex is not “binary.”

Todd made the comment during a spirited interview on Sunday with GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, who has argued for limitations on gender affirming treatments for those under the age of 18.

“Below the age of 18, I think it’s perfectly legitimate to say that we won’t allow genital mutilation or chemical castration through puberty blockers,” Ramaswamy, the biopharmaceutical mogul and author, told Todd during the interview on Sunday. “You’re calling it that, but how do you know it’s that?” Todd pressed Ramaswamy.

Chuckie, gender is not a spectrum, but you are ON the spectrum!

When someone waives their spectrum in you kids face Chuck, you may sense an odd taste to your Bud Light.

Chuck Todd scored brownie points with his liberal overlords, by arguing with his interviewee on this point of contention.

In today’s media, it is not allowed to let someone get away with saying there are only two sexes, and then making any assumptions based on that. Chuck felt compelled to get in that talking point, that gender is a spectrum, and get into how there are so many gender identities, etc.

The last I heard, there were over 50 gender identities discovered so far, with new ones still waiting to be discovered. This is the mindset of the Chuck Todds of the media world.

People will keep watching Todd since they have zero ability to critically think about the most basic of issues.

This young man did an excellent job answering Chuck Todd. I recommend you watch the entire interview. About 6 or 7 minutes long.

Vivek is running for the Republican nomination. He is a brilliant MEGA conservative who has written about his personal fight with the Woke Culture in business.

Vivek rhymes with “cake” or “bake”. Ramaswamy rhymes with everything.

‘Gender Is a Spectrum'

LOL. Thank goodness, I do ornithology and not human research.

Just waiting for someone to say they are more than two sexes for birds. It's bad enough to deal with parasitic nesting species (haha).

If F. Chuck said that to be I’d ask him flatly, are you a man or are you on the spectrum?

He knew, at one time, that there were two and only two. But years of lying for the left has destroyed his ability to reason clearly.

I've never seen him give an evasive non-answer type response.

He's so new on the scene to shoot for the sky, but I kind of wonder if anyone out there might be in need of a compelling VP partner. ?

Right, Chuck - it’s so natural and so real that people have to take harmful substances to chemically castrate themselves to stop their bodies natural growth processes and have surgeries to mutilate their naturally occurring anatomy.

Watch Piers Morgan Uncensored weekdays on Sky 522, Virgin Media 606

How would I single-handedly restore Britain to its former glorious non-woke self?

Well, here’s my 20-point blueprint to cure the UK of what Elon Musk dubbed the woke virus:

1. All ‘preferred personal pronouns’ banned with immediate effect. They’re pointless, confusing, and annoying. People caught using one would be sentenced to 500 hours community service watching Sam ‘he/they/person/whatever’ Smith videos.

2. Anyone incapable of defining a woman as an ‘adult human female’ permanently barred from holding any form of public office.

3. Uniformed police officers caught dancing or holding hands with the public, or wearing virtue-signalling armbands or hats, to be sent on six-month secondment to patrol Tottenham Hotspur matches, home and away – or they can opt for summary execution, if preferable.

4, Cancel culture will be cancelled, by law. The only exception will be for The Guardian newspaper which will be closed as punishment for their founder being a slave-owner. Of course, their staff are so insufferably woke that they’d actually celebrate being cancelled to assuage their terrible guilt and shame.

5. On the subject of slave-owners, reparations based on slavery crimes committed centuries ago will be prohibited. Why should modern day taxpayers who had nothing to do with slavery, and abhor it, pay money to people who didn’t personally suffer from it? It achieves nothing but fuel more racial division.

6. Publishing house staff who try to ‘revise’ classic books in English literature to make them ‘less offensive’ will be made to work exclusively on editing Katie Price’s next ten volumes of autobiography.

7. All trans women athletes will be prohibited from competing against biological females in any sport. They can either compete against biological men, or in a new category of their own. Enough of this unfair assault on women’s rights.

8. Universities who de-platform speakers because snowflake students bleat about feeling ‘unsafe’ will have all government funding removed.

9. Safe spaces in offices will be banned. Ironically, they creep me out.

10. Vegan and vegetarian food firms will be stopped from using meat language to sell their products. No more ‘vegan sausage rolls’ for you, my pasty-faced, green-haired chums. Market your tasteless gruel as actual tasteless gruel, then see how you get on.

11. Cultural appropriation, wokery’s most absurd phenomenon, will be made mandatory. Every British citizen will be obliged to post a photo of themselves copying or mimicking another country’s fashion, food or speaking style, at least once a year, and it will be renamed ‘cultural sharing and celebration.’

12. I will issue formal sanctions on all the treacherous, deluded, entitled Harry Potter stars like Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson who’ve been chucking women-defending JK Rowling on the woke bonfire, and seize back every one of the many millions the loathsome little hypocrites have all made from Rowling’s writing.

13. Airline crew departing from Britain will be legally required to revert back to announcing ‘Ladies and Gentlemen’ when addressing passengers, out of respect for the 99% of passengers who actually like to be called either ‘Ladies’ or ‘Gentlemen.’

14. Similarly, spineless NHS managers will be instructed to call female patients ‘women’ not ‘people who menstruate’ and pregnant females ‘mothers’ not bloody ‘birthing parents.’ Or the managers will find themselves being called ‘Jobless persons.’ The bonkers gender-neutral war on language stops here.

15. I will make it illegal for any employer to force employees to wear a virtue-signalling emblem or perform an act like taking the knee in support of ANY cause. It will be entirely personal choice.

16. The makers of the James Bond movie franchise will be state-ordered to stop his current descent into an over-emotional humourless blubbing mess who doesn’t smoke, barely drinks and has the seductive skills of a bashful asexual monk – and return 007 to his rightful louche, dangerous, devilishly charming, heartless, womanising, hard-boozing assassin self.

17. Eco-warriors like the Just Stop Oil protestors who wreck ordinary people’s lives as they try to get to work or enjoy things like the snooker, will be sentenced to 100 days hard labour working in Lord Sugar’s office and being forced to listen to his ‘witty banter’ for 16 hours a day. Trust me, they won’t be chucking any orange paint around after that.

18. Critical race theory, an increasingly divisive educational sneeze we’ve caught from America’s racism-obsessed cold, will be banned from schools. Instead, those who support it like Diane ‘Jews only get prejudice like redheads’ Abbott will be given personal tutorials on the history of the Nazi Party.

20. Harry and Meghan will have their UK passports/visas revoked indefinitely, for the sake of their mental health and ours. They’re lucky I don’t push for them to be tried for treason.

Sure, it’s a spectrum of XX or XY.

That’s the entire spectrum.
