The leftist “ideology of contradictions” was put on blast by an Indiana county council member after alphabet activists demanded his resignation for declaring himself the “first lesbian woman of color” to serve.
“I am honored to be the one to shatter that glass ceiling. #GirlPower.”
Hypocrisy from the left is well documented, but rarely does it get so thoroughly trolled as recently took place by Muncie, Indiana’s Ryan Webb. Earlier in April, the white, male, Republican, Delaware County Council member took to social media to proclaim his new gender and race identity, deftly baiting protesters into positioning themselves as evident judgmental bigots.
“After much consideration I have decided to come out and finally feel comfortable announcing my true authentic self,” Webb’s April 12 post began. “It is with great relief that I announce to everyone that I identify as a women and not just any woman but as a woman of color as well. I guess this would make me gay/lesbian as well, since I am attracted to women.”
“Whew, that felt good to finally get that out there and start living life as my true self. I’m excited to bring some diversity to the county council. Until today we didn’t have any females of color or LGBTQIAPC+++ on the council. I’m glad that now we do!” he added and explained there would be no change to his title or pronouns before he later included, “I am honored to be the one to shatter that glass ceiling. #GirlPower.”
A slew of activists appeared at the council’s April 25th meeting to demand Webb’s resignation, alleging that he was inciting hate through his actions. Among them, the Muncie Star Press reported, were six students from Student Demand Action of Burris Laboratory School and a man experiencing gender dysphoria called Charlize Jamieson.
Jamieson said, “His words not only embarrass himself, but you, the county council.”
“If he were serious, I’d sing his praises,” the man continued, claiming to know what was in Webb’s heart. “But instead, I know better. We all do. I know better because of his history of making hateful anti-trans statements on social media and disrespecting one’s pronouns.”
Following the remarks of protesters, Webb commented, “To clarify, I never claimed to be trans anything. I simply expressed my own gender identity…I’m being dead serious. This isn’t a joke. I said what I said. I don’t know what to tell you. You don’t get to question me. You do not get to require proof from me. You were part of the movement that helped establish these rules and set the bar, OK? You don’t get to come later when someone else joins the club that you don’t want in…You don’t get to question how I identify.”
Speaking with the Star Press he said, “It’s just another example of the intolerant Left and their ideology of contradictions.”
“I would never resign my position on the county council. That would be an enormous disservice to the thousands of voters who chose me to be their representative,” he added.
Since Webb’s statement and the protest, he reported to WISH-TV being the target of a “hate and harassment campaign” by a group called the Indiana Progressives who he said doxxed his family and encouraged “people to unlawfully congregate at my home.”
The trending story captured the attention of the Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh who praised Webb and wrote online, “Wow incredibly stunning and brave. Ryan Webb is a powerful black woman who deserves our full support and respect.”
“Apparently Ms. Webb’s self-identity is not being respected in Delaware County,” Walsh added. “A number of people at the last council meeting even called for her to resign. I’m wondering if I might need to show up to the next meeting to show my support. Can’t tolerate this bigotry in the year 2023.”
