Michale Knowles was misquoted by The Daily Beast … and he’s pissed about it.
Who could blame him? This headline makes him look like he’s trying to ‘eradicate’ trans people and their community. When you actually watch Knowles’s speech, it’s very far from that.
I never said that and demand a retraction. @thedailybeast pic.twitter.com/RvPCikgHgG

Michael called for a retraction … damn, son.
And rightfully so.

Always.
Some yahoo posted the clip thinking he was owning Knowles when in reality, he was only proving him right.

And if it’s false, we should not indulge it …
the IDEOLOGY of it.
He’s right. He’s not calling for transgender communities to be eradicated – he’s saying this idea, this narrative, this movement should be out of public life. That’s it.
She should retract and apologize.
Do you understand the English language?
Rhetorical

Totally rhetorical.
Just sue them Michael
They don't do retractions

Because they know the lawn-flamingos who read them don’t care if they’re honest or not.

Update:
Looks like the lawyers at The Daily Beast got nervous and made them fix the headline:
I'm pleased to see that @thedailybeast's lawyers finally made the editor add a note about the changed headline:
"Editor’s Note: the headline has been changed to more literally reflect the words Knowles used." https://t.co/fACz7RCBWj pic.twitter.com/WnEiflS3AL
— Michael Knowles (@michaeljknowles) March 6, 2023
The best part is the use of the word "literal."
'The headline now reflects what Knowles literally said, as opposed to the completely made-up nonsense that we lied about him saying.'
