It's a hell of a redirection. x ∈ X claims harm from y ∈ Y. The Archons firmly declare that this proves all X are harmed by all Y. x lied. The Archons declare that some ys' reaction to this revelation...is simply further proof that all X are harmed by all Y.

To be precise: Cupp isn't making a direct logical connection. She's asserting that some ys (thus all of Y) are being 'gross' (a modish term for sinful/evil/repulsive used by those of degraded vocabularies) and <mumble mumble> X is _even more at risk now_. Abracadabra.

The upshot is that the contradictory data (an x ∈ X was not, in fact, harmed by a y ∈ Y) is recuperated into a reason you need to believe _even harder than you did before_ that Y is evil and X is in danger.

It's not ridiculous. It's common for the reaction to an absurdity to do more damage than the original absurdity. For example, you can think of WWII (or the Russian Revolution) as the reaction to WWI. The GND is an obvious reaction to the Trump Presidency.
