Lauren Boebert Absurdly Claims The Left Will 'Cancel' Avril Lavigne Over The Song 'Sk8er Boi'

After losing her bestie on Twitter, it seems Republican Representative Lauren Boebert of Colorado has lost her ability to make any kind of sense on the social media platform.

Recently she tried to insult President Joe Biden with some strange made-up word that had Twitter scratching their heads.


Well, the internet was left confused yet again, as Boebert tried to claim the left was going to cancel Avril Lavigne for her song Sk8er Boi.

Boebert tweeted a clip from the music video for the song.

The clip just has Lavigne say:

“He was a boy/She was a girl/Can I make it any more obvious?”

Boebert claimed the ‘delusional Left’ would cancel Lavigne for this line. This is likely a transphobic reference to the idea of a gender binary or a homophobic take claiming heterosexuals are victims of the fictional "gay agenda."

However, the song is talking about two specific people. And boy and girl definitely exist on the gender spectrum.

And no state or municipality has laws that allow discrimination against straight people. LGBTQ+ people aren't as privileged.

It’s really a nonsensical tweet.






Sometimes it’s difficult to remember Boebert is a politician who has responsibilities to her constituents.

We’re sure she forgets sometimes too.

Which is bad because right now Colorado is dealing with wildfires that destroyed hundreds of homes and left people missing.

Boebert might need a reminder.






Boebert’s history of freaking out over a challenge to gender stereotypes in place of caring about more important things is well documented.

Just last month she complained about a gingerbread person cookie on Twitter.

Design For New Commemorative Coin Featuring Trump Just Dropped—And People Can't Believe It's Real

On March 19, the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA), comprising people appointed by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, unanimously approved a final design concept proposed for a 24-karat gold United States semiquincentennial commemorative coin.

Instead of featuring the Declaration of Independence or some other images central to the foundation of the nation in 1776 or more universally recognized symbols from the last 250 years, the CFA chose a sketch based on a photo of Trump leaning over the Resolute desk in the Oval Office for the coin's obverse or "heads" side.

Gavin Newsom Said What We're All Thinking About Trump's Decision To Deploy ICE To Airports

After President Donald Trump moved to deploy ICE agents to U.S. airports amid a partial government shutdown that has caused exceptionally long delays at TSA lines nationwide, California Governor Gavin Newsom pointed out exactly why the move is so troubling for citizens and non-citizens alike.

ICE agents are still getting paid during the shutdown, unlike TSA agents, who are currently working unpaid and struggling amid the affordability crisis. News outlets have confirmed ICE agents have been deployed in airports that serve Democratic strongholds, particularly John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia Airports (New York), O'Hare International Airport (Chicago), and others.
