The National Hockey League is getting dragged through the mud on social media after declaring that “trans women are women” on Tuesday.
The NHL Twitter account posted after a user bashed the league’s support of the Team Trans Draft Tournament in Middleton, Wisconsin.
WOMAN WHO MURDERED PREGNANT VICTIM TO STEAL UNBORN CHILD GETS DEATH PENALTY
The tournament was the first of its kind, and all 80 participants identified as either transgender or nonbinary, according to the NHL.
“So, men playing on [a women’s] team?” one user tweeted at the NHL.
Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Nonbinary identity is real.

“Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Nonbinary identity is real,” the league fired back.
Social media exploded in the wake of the comment.
“Amazing to watch sports leagues that rely on extraordinary performance by biological men (as well as the viewership of disproportionately male audiences) parrot the idiotic anti-biological garbage of the woke coterie,” Ben Shapiro tweeted.
If this is true, why aren’t there any trans men in the NHL? They’re real men, after all. Must be terrible and vicious discrimination.

“Wonder who is at the controls of the ol’ @NHL Twitter account this holiday week?” one Twitter user asked. “Tweeting about trans hockey players then turning off the ability for its fans to comment because legitimate questions are being asked. Nice work, NHL social media team.”

“Not hockey too….Canada is definitely doomed :)” Jordan Peterson posted.
“Would you like some non-sensical horse puckey with your professional ice sport? NHL was getting rationed for its denial of reality so it is no longer allowing responses,” Mollie Hemingway tweeted.

“The NHL becomes the latest organization to totally debase itself for the sake of pandering to people who aren’t their customers and never will be,” Matt Walsh chimed in.
