Twitter has suspended the Babylon Bee’s account after the parody site posted an article awarding Rachel Levine, the Biden-appointed transgender health secretary, its “man of the year.”
Twitter locked the Bee’s account, which has more than 1.3 million followers, because the tweet promoting the article about Levine violates Twitter’s policy about violence against or harassment or threatening of other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age disability or serious disease.
Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon followed up his initial post of Twitter’s notification with commentary on other action through more tweets.
