This woman landed her dream job as ship captain, but it’s a role that has been ridiculed by ignorant men online. In a viral TikTok video, she intelligently takes down one sexist troll who claimed she couldn’t be a captain if she’s a woman.
She Handles Trolls With Grace and Intelligence
One woman has emerged as an example of how to handle trolls with grace and intelligence.
Captain Kate McCue, the first American woman to captain a massive cruise vessel, has captivated audiences with her achievements and social media presence.
With a massive following on TikTok, Captain McCue has unfortunately encountered her fair share of ignorant and sexist comments from online trolls.
Instead of being angry or ignoring the trolls, she responded in a way that left everyone in awe.
“A Quick Reference: ‘You’re’ as in ‘You Are’, Like ‘You Are Sexist’”
A recent incident unfolded when a troll called Seamus272 questioned Captain McCue’s ability to be a captain solely based on her gender.
In a TikTok video, the captain addressed this remark with a clever twist, excellently educating the troll.
In her video response, Captain McCue declared, “Normally as I’m scrolling through comments and I see something like this, I totally ignore and move on with my life. But I think it’s about high time I address this because it’s 2020.”
“And in this day and age, I am shocked that someone still doesn’t know the difference between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’.” She continues.
“’Your’ Is Something Possessive Because It Belongs to You, Like ‘Your Ignorance’”
McCue then gave a grammar lesson: “A quick reference: ‘you’re’ as in ‘you are’, like ‘you are sexist’.”
“‘Your’ is something possessive because it belongs to you, like ‘your ignorance’,” She cleverly pointed out.
“But don’t worry, I’m here for you. If you need any more clarification, you can find me here. In my captain’s chair.” McCue finished the video in perfect ‘drop the mic’ style.
The video concluded with a captivating shot of Captain McCue confidently reclining in her captain’s seat, leaving viewers impressed by her takedown of the ignorant comment.
An Unexpected Approach To Dismantling the Sexist Troll
Many praised Captain McCue for her brilliance and unexpected approach to dismantling the sexist troll.
One viewer remarked, “Captain Kate you’re just A M A Z I N G! Can you be my English teacher?”
Captain Kate McCue was applauded for her grammar lesson, “Preach!!! Grammar is so important.”
Other women rallied together to show their support, “Someone get the captain a crown, she’s a queen!”
