Liberal Mom Effortlessly Takes Down Conservative Teen After He Denies Having Any 'Privilege'

Liberal Mom Effortlessly Takes Down Conservative Teen After He Denies Having Any 'Privilege'

After a conservative teenager denied having any "privilege," a liberal mother took him to task in a moment that quickly won her plaudits online.

The exchange was featured on Middle Ground—a long-running series produced by the YouTube channel Jubilee that features people with different perspectives attempting to work through their differences.


The latest video titled "Conservative Teens vs Liberal Parents" shows parents shutting down arguments from teenagers who've spouted uninformed conservative talking points.

One mother, named Cindy, attracted viewer attention for her arguments in favor of safeguarding reproductive rights.

Cindy's remarks come as the United States continues to reel from the news a leaked draft opinion indicated the Supreme Court's ruling on Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization will move to strike down Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark decision that protects a person's right to choose reproductive healthcare without excessive government restriction.

One teen, identified as Nathan, appeared unable to comprehend the concept of financially supporting a woman who he might impregnate.

Cindy pointed out Nathan has privilege over women as a cisgender male and he did not like that one bit.

He responded:

“Why would you say my life is privilege?"
"You know most people commit suicide are men."
"Most people who work in dangerous workplaces are men."
"Most people who fight in war are men.”

Cindy shut him down with the following response:

"And who set that system up?"

Nathan attempted to pick a fight with Cindy later, asking her if she thinks having gender-neutral restrooms increases the likelihood of "rape or assault."

She responded with the following:

"They already exist. It's interesting that men are only concerned about this 'rape in the bathroom' when we're having a conversation about trans folk."

And when Nathan suggested the mere existence of gender-neural restrooms "stems from this idea," Cindy was well prepared.

"No. This idea that rape is gonna suddenly go on the rise because of gender neutral bathrooms, stems from transphobia."

These exchanges soon went viral and many praised Cindy for the strength of her arguments.




Most Americans support a woman's right to choose. The final Supreme Court opinion on the future of Roe v. Wade is expected later this summer.

Meanwhile, concerns about "bathroom predators" have long galvanized the right, perhaps most prominently during early 2016, when the North Carolina legislature passed a bill overturning local gay and transgender protections. The bill was a direct response to a prior nondiscrimination ordinance in the city of Charlotte, which had offered a wide range of protections.

Most notably, the Charlotte ordinance allowed citizens to use the restroom that best matches their gender identity. State lawmakers acted ostensibly out of concern that women and children could be victimized by sexual predators posing as transgender to enter women’s restrooms, a claim that was immediately contested by civil rights groups.

Dr. Oz Slammed After His 'Credit Card' Health Care Analogy Goes Completely Off The Rails

Snake oil salesman Dr. Mehmet Oz—now the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services—was criticized after he tried to discuss U.S. health insurance providers' pledge to speed up the prior authorization process by oddly comparing it to a "credit card," underscoring just how much he doesn't understand the job he currently holds.

Earlier this week, major U.S. health insurers—including Cigna, Aetna, Humana, and UnitedHealthcare—announced a set of reforms aimed at simplifying the often frustrating prior authorization process for patients and providers.

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
