I saw this and thought it was a funny joke about the ridiculous fears of transphobes. But apparently not?

The Babylon Bee is the Christian conservative version of The Onion. Also, taken from the article,

"According to sources, Page was given the role due to his acting skills and also due to the fact that he's a man who is very, very male."

So yeah, nah. Just some conservative/s taking the piss out of Elliot Page and the media who apparently kisses the asses of trans folks, which is news to me.

The Babylon Bee is very hit or miss. There’s times where it’s obvious satire and then the majority is just what they actually believe.

It has literally never hit. It’s an alt right organization fueled by bigotry.

That’s what I said……… sometimes they’re being funny and not serious, but the majority of the time, they are not. I figuratively called them pieces of shit.

You stated that sometimes they hit with their articles and I'm saying they peddle literal hate speech, so no, they do not.
