[HELP!] Can't Remove Brake Fluid Screen Filter - F30

So I want to change the brake fluid in my car, and after I have opened the brake fluid cap, I found that there's an orange screen filter in it. I tried using a flat head screwdriver to pry it open. It didn't work. I tried turning the filter, and it still didn't want to come out. I felt like if I used too much force, it was going to break.

This is a video I took:


I can't change the fluid without getting that out.

Could anyone help me?

Get some needle nose pliers and man up! Pull it out.
