There are two things happening here.

1) People are "correcting" him about conservative talking points.

2) People mistook him for a woman.

How are these connected? Do all the posts that criticize him think he's a woman and all the posts that are supportive realize he's a man? Would conservatives who don't believe in global warming refrain from commenting on it if they knew his proper gender?

I kinda think this is fueled by confirmation bias.
