    Most don’t, but there’s a very vocal minority who do. The lady in the picture is Philomena Cunk, a well meaning reporter with a head full of bricks. She’s a satirical character who makes fun of news media, pop culture, and political viewpoints. You shouldn’t take anything she says entirely seriously. The meme only exists to make the point that people who think pretending to be trans is an effective troll hate trans people. Here’s another example of the format which drag made a few hours ago:

      Philomena Cunk (stage name.) is a satirical/comedy presenter. Well meaning or intelligence don’t come in to. Stop trying to be divisive.

        Did you think drag was insulting the actor’s intelligence? You do know Philomena Cunk is a fictional character, right? She’s written to be dumb, it’s part of the joke. The writing on her shows is very good, she’s a very believable sort of fool.
