This past week marked an unprecedented occurrence on the digital landscape. The Daily Wire, a leading conservative news outlet, released its provocative yet critical documentary, "What Is A Woman," on Twitter. Despite facing stiff resistance from Twitter's safety team, this groundbreaking documentary stands victorious, thanks to an intervention from the platform's owner, Elon Musk. With 112 million views at the time of writing, it is perhaps the most watched video on Twitter, setting a milestone in the platform's history.
The Daily Wire has long been a prominent voice of conservatism in an often liberal-leaning digital media world. It is known for challenging the mainstream narrative, and their latest documentary is no exception. This piece, directed and presented by Matt Walsh, boldly ventures into the heated debate around transgender issues, specifically as it pertains to children and young adults.
The documentary is titled 'What Is A Woman' - an innocuous question on the surface, but one that delves into the depths of societal norms and the evolving concept of gender identity. Walsh has come under criticism for what some see as an unwillingness to affirm the validity of trans identities. However, many others applaud him for standing firm on traditional notions of biological sex and gender, and for highlighting the potential dangers of the transgender movement's influence over our children.
The controversy surrounding the documentary's release on Twitter was fierce. Twitter's Head of Safety took steps to censor the film shortly after its release, a move reflecting the platform's complex relationship with free speech and the perceived need to protect users from potentially harmful content. But, in a surprising turn of events, Twitter's owner, Elon Musk, stepped in to override this decision.
Musk's intervention has been lauded by conservatives as a critical defense of free speech. His decision allows for an open discourse on controversial issues that some feel are often suppressed or silenced by tech companies. The film has now been watched by millions worldwide, bringing the important, if controversial, discussions around gender identity to a larger audience than ever before.
The tremendous success of 'What Is A Woman' on Twitter serves as a testament to the power of digital platforms in shaping public opinion and influencing the societal narrative. It has also illuminated the necessity for more diversity in these narratives. Having different perspectives ensures a healthy debate and progress, even if those perspectives challenge widely accepted ideas.
Critics may call this documentary controversial, but its immense viewership cannot be denied. This film has brought the debate surrounding transgender issues to the fore and has encouraged a broader conversation about how we approach these topics, particularly as they relate to children.

It is a victory for free speech, for diverse perspectives, and for the belief that difficult conversations are vital to societal growth. It sends a clear message that there is a demand for conservative perspectives in the mainstream media. It also underscores that no matter the controversy, these discussions are necessary and should not be silenced.
