The Babylon Bee was locked out due to "hateful conduct," according to Twitter.
It's about shielding their false gender ideology from criticism, even criticism done in jest," Dillion also said in reaction to the appeal denial.
#Babylon bee banned by twitter for free#
"Twitter claims in their mission statement to be a platform for free expression ‘without barriers.’ So why are they censoring lighthearted jokes? This isn't about protecting individuals from targeted hatred or harassment.
Department of Health and Human Services and is a transgender woman.ĭillon explained in an interview with Fox News Digital that they have no intention of deleting the tweet, which is what Twitter required they do if they want to regain access to their account.īabylon Bee Editor-in-Chief Kyle Mann was also locked out of his account after tweeting, "Maybe they'll let us back into our Twitter account if we throw a few thousand Uighurs in a concentration camp," referencing other accounts that are associated with China and their treatment of the Uighur minority that are still allowed to operate. Twitter in the meantime has made it clear that they will threaten and censor anyone who does just that - even at the expense of a joke and the truth.Levine serves as assistant secretary for health for the U.S. It will have to be the next wave of feminists who say enough of this lunacy. The Babylon Bee and the conservative right are not going to solve the issue of trans males occupying mantles reserved for biological females. Earlier this year, trans activists demanded Netflix pull Dave Chappelle’s latest standup special when Chappelle jokingly called himself a TERF and defended Harry Potter author JK Rowling against accusations of transphobia. Twitter suspended the Bee simply because it disagrees with their joke and was encouraged to do so by a left-wing base increasingly hostile to anyone who presents an argument they disapprove of.īiological males who reassign their gender are claiming mantles reserved for female accomplishments, “Woman of the Year” or “NCAA Women’s Swimming Champion.” Lauren Hough, a popular female LGBTQ author, recently had her nomination for the Lamba Literary Awards revoked due to what a small group of Twitter activists described as her making transphobic arguments on Twitter in defending another author and friend of hers. Neither the Bee nor Kirk threatened violence against Levine or committed harassment. Twitter suspended the Babylon Bee under their policy against “violence and harassment on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability or serious disease.” They also banned right-wing commentator Charlie Kirk (and it aggrieves me to defend him) over another factual tweet concerning Levine. Yet Lia Thomas has the power of an entire mainstream media complex on her side and Levine has the backing of the most powerful man on earth. Similar criticisms have been lodged against those speaking out against collegiate swimmer Lia Thomas, a trans woman who has been winning against biological females. The Babylon Bee has been accused of “punching down” with their satire of Levine, but Levine is one of the most powerful health officials in the country.
