The singer responded to the hateful troll on X in a series of posts, using it as a 'good lesson in ignorance' for her children.

Singer P!nk celebrated her 44th birthday last week and promptly shut down a troll who used a photo of comedian and politician Suzy Eddie Izzard to mock her using transphobic tropes.

Pink was assured in her response, saying the troll's actions offer "a good lesson in ignorance" for her children, writing:


"Thank you so much. I just showed my 12 year old daughter your post. I explained to her that I’ve never met you, I don’t know you, and I have no idea why you would go out of your way to be hateful."
t was a good lesson in ignorance. Thank you. I still don’t know you. Congrats."
"You're no one."

After one user on X, formerly Twitter, empathized with the singer and referred to such trolls as "the worst," she responded with the following observation:

"Yes. Some. What these kind of people are are anonymous, lonely, and miserable. But most people are smart, good, and rad."

After telling off the troll again for a "wasted opportunity" because there are "so many pictures you could’ve chosen that were actually me that were worse than this picture," she explained why she responded the way she did:

"I post these things to show the kids I know—my own kids as well, that we are all occasionally treated badly. I show them because they know me, and they know that my self-esteem does not rely on the opinions of others."
"Nor does it ely on how many tickets I sell. Good/bad. Whatever. I love Me."

Many praised the singer for speaking out.



P!nk has long been an ally to the LGBTQ+ community and has used her high profile to condemn hatred and bigotry.

In June, she criticized a group of protesters who descended upon Orlando's Disney World waving Nazi flags and supporting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, expressing anger and disgust at their fascist ideology.

She has also previously scoffed at "the state of social media" and "keyboard warriors" who spend their time attacking celebrities, saying she stopped sharing pictures of her children on social media to protect them from backlash and to respect their privacy.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
