some dude on survivor outed another survivor who happened to be trans and called it “deception” like this was some damn soap opera and everyone was like ”lmao that’s personal and not your fucking problem?” and the host immediately said “We don’t need to vote, just grab your torch” and had him kicked off. that’s some instant fucking karma.

IT’S REAL (two parts, second half here)

Video links are broken, but I wanted to clarify:

• the outer wasn’t even particularly anti-trans, he was just desperate to stay on the show
• everyone was less “lmfao that’s personal” and more “wtf that’s personal”
• When he did it, everyone’s head whipped around– not at Zeke, the transman, but at the asshole
• While poor Zeke is stunned into silence, all of the people who just found out are restraining themselves from dragging this fucker under the water
• Guy has the realization ON CAMERA of exactly how low he’d sunk while everyone is ripping him a new one
• The host lets it go on for about a minute and then is just like, yeah, we’ve got consensus, grab your torch and get the fuck out

afterbonus:

• CBS was prepared to scrap the episode rather than out Zeke, but Zeke and GLAAD said “No, show it. Let people see that shit.”
• The asshole’s day job also told him to grab his torch and go home
• He never tried to play himself as the victim, and publicly apologized for what he himself described as “assault.”
