Far-left novelist Stephen King gets hilariously mocked on Twitter for implying men can't get pregnant

Iconic horror novelist and avowed left-winger Stephen King has been getting a serious spanking on Twitter after implying that men can't get pregnant.

King — obviously amid a ghastly mistake or misspoken thought — posted the following Thursday:

"It has been said before, but it bears repeating: if men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament," King wrote.

Eagle-eyed Twitter users were all over the author's sociopolitical gaffe — as in, what does he mean "if"? As we all know by now, the New Gender Gospel of the Left declares that men can be women, women can be men — and despite not having female reproductive body parts, men most definitely can become pregnant. A doctor testified on Capitol Hill that they can.

Clearly, King wasn't thinking things through.

How are folks reacting?

A good number of commenters recognized that King apparently forgot himself — as surely he can't mean in all seriousness that men can't get pregnant. That would get him canceled in a heartbeat.

Here but a few of those reactions:

• Comedian Tim Young had this to say: "Stephen King is transphobic now... he'd better check his leftist lunatic rulebook before posting next time."
• Actor Matthew Marsden — who believes Hollywood penalizes conservative actors and said he lost a job for being unvaccinated — took no prisoners with the author: "It’s 2023, dude. Men CAN get pregnant."
• Brandon Herrera — aka "the AK Guy" — quipped, "Are you implying men can’t get pregnant?"
• TheBlaze's Rob Eno declared, "Wow how unwoke. Men can get pregnant. That's what we are told daily now by the elites. ..."

Anything else?

King's leftism has been on full display for some time now. For instance, after he seemed to speak out against fellow author J.K. Rowling's remarks about transgenderism in 2020 — tweeting that "Trans women are women" — Rowling deleted a tweet praising King. He also was forced to walk back a dishonest accusation against Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis last July.
