When AOC recently giggled and said, "Woke 1 was crazy," the part that she left out was that "Woke 2" is going to be exponentially worse if the Left ever gains power again.
Despite the fact that Democrats' adherence to the gender cult was a defining factor in the 2024 election that saw Kamala Harris get walloped in the electoral and popular vote, they are not abandoning the insanity. The rest of the world is rejecting trans ideology, but if they ever get the opportunity, they will bring it all back with a vengeance.
Even while out of power, leftists are still trying to use the issue as a cudgel to try to discredit and destroy anyone who is not an acolyte in the cult.
Yesterday, Mother Jones decided it was Jennifer Sey's turn to get smeared for daring to have the heretical belief that men do not belong in women's sports, bathrooms, or locker rooms.
Jennifer Sey, the founder of XX-XY Athletics, a sportswear startup that openly calls transgender people’s identity a “lie,” has spent the last two and a half years stoking the flames of the national panic over trans athletes.

Enter Sophie Cunningham. https://t.co/buOFLENS1T
We'll spare readers any of the trash disguised as "journalism" in the article (you can read it here if you want to be revolted), but suffice it to say that Mother Jones is OUTRAGED that Sey runs a company that makes a profit (she has a pretty good track record of doing that), that investors (including one from — GASP! — the oil industry) helped her start the company, and that she holds many "conservative" beliefs, such as objecting to injecting children with experimental mRNA shots.

Mother Jones even went so far as to goad Sey's son, a liberal college student, to criticize his mother's political stances.
Yes, there are clumps of pond scum that have more decency and integrity than Mother Jones.
Unfortunately for the uber-leftist publication, normal people aren't buying their BS. The article was ratioed on X yesterday from the moment it was posted.
I’ve been following @JenniferSey for years. What she does is point out that men shouldn’t be competing in women’s athletic leagues. If acknowledging human biology counts as “stoking the flames,” it means you’re in a cult and need help. https://t.co/8DmFL9dVC6

Last year, Mother Jones tried to cancel Riley Gaines with a similar article. That didn't work, and neither will this one.
First the hit piece on Riley Gaines, now the piece on Jennifer Sey, where the "big reveal" seems to be that they have made money.

I'm seeing a pattern with Mother Jones trying to tear down successful women, arguing that because one woman makes money on speaking events (which… https://t.co/ePEkcj85Fy
... you know, is usually what clothing companies do) that their support of fair sport for women and girls somehow is dimished.
Yet, Mother Jones also profits from its articles. They disparage Sey's company for making 1 million in profit, but the Mother Jones outlet made 2 million in 2025.
Per Cause IQ, The Center for Investigative Reporting, the company that produces Mother Jones, raked in 22 million in grants and donations, over 6 million in grants alone. The CIR is a nonprofit organization, but their employees still make a salary, with their top officers making almost 300k per year.
Why are they not working for free, and because they make money, does that make them all grifters?
Leftist logic dictates that only fellow leftists are allowed to make money. Everyone else must live in poverty.
From the same media outlet that is embracing the "anti-capitalist" DSA.
The jig is up,@MotherJones.

Lie, smear, and misattribute Sey and others all you want. You’ve lost. The majority of Americans - and most major sporting associations - agree with Sey and Cunningham. https://t.co/2gbIA3eV33
The article took plenty of cheap shots at Sophie Cunningham, too.
Somehow, we're pretty sure that the WNBA star couldn't care less.
@JenniferSey is a warrior for Truth! She is brilliant, compassionate, hard working and achieves success in everything she does. The End.

If it had not been for COVID, Sey would likely be the CEO of Levi-Strauss today.
Mother Jones makes it seem like she's been a lifelong failure who had never been successful until she stood up against men in women's sports.
It's time to stop pretending this is only an issue people on the Right care about. A Progressive State Rep in NH has been courageous in listening to women & making tough votes to back up his words. ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/al70iJBzlV

Believing female athletes have rights is not a "conservative" viewpoint. It is a sane and normal viewpoint.
Which probably explains why Mother Jones can't understand it.
This article predictably ignores the feminists and lifelong liberals that are in this fight. I am a lifelong registered Democrat. I organized the first Sophie rally. Most of the women I organize with are also left-leaning. Mother Jones knows we exist and chose not to mention us,…

God forbid Mother Jones ever accidentally commit an act of true journalism by getting viewpoints from both sides. They have an agenda to push, after all.
"Mother Jones Hates Women"

Shorter and infinitely more accurate.
It would have saved everyone a whole lot of time if they had just published that.
Broads like Jennifer need to back off and let men do what they want.
— 🫃🏼💉🇺🇦🇮🇷🇨🇺Hollaria Briden, Esq. (@HollyBriden) September 12, 2026
LOL.
Holly Briden never fails to hilariously point out the insanity of the Left.
The best response, however, came from Jim Treacher on X:
Shouldn't you be called Birthing Person Jones? https://t.co/nIphm1AXEu
— jimtreacher.substack.com (@jtLOL) September 12, 2026
HAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!
Great point. Why is "Birthing Person Jones" so transphobic that they use the word "Mother"?
Seeing as how the article was aimed at slandering Sey, however, it's only fair to give her the last word on the matter.
The dumbest smear i get is 'you don't actually care about women's sports.'
— Jennifer Sey (@JenniferSey) September 12, 2026
I was an elite athlete until i was 19 years old. I was a 7x national gymnastics team member. I dedicated my life to sports. I moved away from home at 14 before it was a thing for parents to put…
... everything into their kids' sporting career. I had zero childhood, only training.
I was the first whistleblower about abuse in gymnastics. I endured harassment and being demonized for calling out abusive coaches and a culture that promotes it and covers it up. I didn't stop speaking up, despite the endless harassment, precisely because I care about female athletes.
I had the first meeting with Senator Feinstein about the need for the Safe Sport Act. Which happened about a year after that meeting.
I wrote a book exposing abuse in the Olympic movement. I named names.
I made a documentary film connecting the crimes of Larry Nassar to a broader culture of abuse in sports.
Seriously, find another smear.
I'm a lot of things -- smear me for those. But the idea that I don't care about female athletes and women's sports is so dumb I can't even really find the words. You would actually be hard pressed to find someone who cares more and has done more to show it.
Find another smear.
KA-BOOM!
But Sey had one final comment for "Birthing Person" Jones and its failed attempt to vilify her.
This ratio is a thing to behold.
— Jennifer Sey (@JenniferSey) September 13, 2026
It was glorious. A thing of beauty.
Despite the massive ratio, however, the article is also a warning about what the Left will do if they ever get back into power.
Vote accordingly, American women.
