Kevin Sorbo might need a refresher on Xena’s “rules of survival” after Lucy Lawless made short work of his latest right-wing conspiracy theory.

The US actor – who played Hercules opposite Lucy’s Xena in the 1990s – falsely claimed on Twitter that the deadly attack on the Capitol carried out by supporters of President Donald Trump was actually an “antifa” operation.

He also retweeted a message claiming the attackers were “leftist agitators,” then added his own comment: “They don’t look like patriots to me...”

Lucy soon went into full “Warrior Princess” mode, firing back at Kevin:

No, Peanut. They are not Patriots. They are your flying monkeys,homegrown terrorists, QAnon actors. They are the douchebags that go out and do the evil bidding of people like you who like to wind them up like toys and let them do their worst. #keepingYourFilthyHandsclean #enabler

Kevin played the title character on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, which also featured Lucy Lawless as Xena, eventually leading to her landing her own spin-off, Xena: Warrior Princess.

The verbal smackdown caused Lucy’s name to trend on Twitter:
