He just wants to\u2063 play, and you\u2019re confusing him telling him, \u2018Yeah, you\u2019re a boy, but you could be a girl if you want to be.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI \u2062think that\u2019s so confusing to \u200ca kid. It\u2019s even confusing to a teenager,\u201d he continued. \u201cYou\u2019re still trying to find your identity, and yet here\u2019s this thing going on, saying, \u2018Yeah, but you can be anything you want. You can be a cat if you want to be.\u2019 \u2062I mean, if you \u200didentify as a \u2064tree. \u2026 And I\u2019m going, \u2018Come on! What are we in, a Kurt Vonnegut novel?\u2019 It\u2019s so absurd, that it\u2019s gone now to the point of absurdity.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Following Cooper\u2019s \u2063remarks, Vampyre\u2062 Cosmetics\u200c took to Instagram to release a statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIn\u200d light of recent statements by Alice Cooper, we will no longer be doing \u200ca makeup collaboration. We stand with all members of the\u2064 LGBTQIA+ community and \u200bbelieve everyone should have access to healthcare.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The cosmetics company \u2062also announced that all <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/alice-cooper-loses-brand-partnership-after-slamming-trans-movement\/\" title=\"Alice Cooper loses brand deal after criticizing trans movement.\">pre-order sales<\/a> would be refunded.<\/p>\n<p>In the same interview, Cooper \u200ddidn&#8217;t hold back in criticizing\u200c the &#8220;woke&#8221; movement and the \u2062limitations it imposes on freedom of speech.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWho\u2019s making the rules? Is there a building somewhere in New York where people sit down every day and say, \u2018Okay, we can\u2019t say \u2018mother\u2019 now. We have to say \u2018birthing \u2063person.\u2019 Get that \u2064out \u2064on the wire right now\u2019?\u201d he continued. \u201cWho is this person that\u2019s making these rules? I don\u2019t get it. I\u2019m not being old school about it. \u200bI\u2019m being logical about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Cooper dismissed the woke \u2063movement as &#8220;laughable&#8221; and argued that the extreme ideas it promotes are \u2063not widely\u200b supported.<\/p>\n<p>Cooper&#8217;s remarks didn&#8217;t stop\u200d there. He also shared his thoughts on the transgender issue:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cSo I \u200bsay let somebody at least become sexually aware of who they are before they start thinking about if \u2062they\u2019re a boy or \u2062a girl,\u201d he said. \u201cA lot of \u200dtimes, I look at it this way, the logical way: If you\u2064 have these genitals, you\u2019re a boy. If you\u2062 have those genitals, you\u2019re a\u2062 girl. There\u2019s a\u200b difference between \u2018I\u2064 am a male who is a female, or I\u2019m a\u200b female that\u2019s a male\u2019 and wanting to be a female. You\u200c were \u200bborn a male. Okay, so that\u2019s a fact. You have these things here.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Cooper even\u2064 raised concerns about \u2063potential abuse of the trans movement:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWell, I can see somebody really \u200btaking advantage of \u2062this, though,\u201d he said. \u201cA guy can walk into a woman\u2019s bathroom at any time and just say, \u2018I just feel like I\u2019m a\u200b woman today\u2019 and have\u200d the time of his life in there, and he\u2019s not \u200cin the least bit\u2026 He\u2019s just taking advantage of that \u200dsituation,\u201d he said. \u201cWell, that\u2019s going to happen. Somebody\u2019s going to get raped, and the guy\u2019s going\u200c to\u200b say, \u2018Well, I felt like a girl that day, and then I felt\u200c like a \u200bguy.\u2019 Where do you \u200ddraw this line?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Cooper concluded by suggesting that society may eventually need to reassess the \u200ctrans issue due to its potential dangers, comparing it to the risks associated with artificial\u2063 intelligence.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\">CLICK HERE \u200dTO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alice Cooper, the rock legend, faced consequences for criticizing the transgender movement.
