Twitter removed Charlie Kirk from Turning Point USA because he had declared that Rachel Levine was the Assistant Secretary of Health in America.
Who’s the man? The answer depends on the person you ask. “Charlie Kirk, founder of TPUSA, talk radio host and outspoken conservative commentator, was suspended from Twitter on Tuesday after identifying President Joe Biden’s assistant health secretary in the Department of Health and Human Services as a man,” The Post Millennial reported March 22. Kirk reportedly called out Levine and slammed the fact the official was awarded for being a notable “woman” by USA Today:
“‘Richard Levine,’ Kirk wrote, ‘spent 54 years of his life as a man. His family included a wife and children. He “transitioned” to being a woman in 2011, Joe Biden appointed Levine to be a 4-Star Admiral, and now USA Today has named “Rachel” Levine as a “Woman of the Year”[.]Are there any feminists around??’”
Twitter claimed the tweet infringed on its “rules preventing hateful conduct.” According to The Post Millenial, Twitter said that Levine’s biological partner and Levine being given Levine as his name were “hateful.” Twitter’s rules state that Twitter uses “Hateful” conduct that “You may not promote violence against, threaten, or harass other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease.”
Kirk reportedly explained to The Post Millennial that “Everything I said was precisely accurate” He noted further that “Twitter still suspended my account. It should be alarming for all Americans, regardless of their disagreement with me. They want submission. They’ve become an enemy to the truth.
Twitter appears also to be locked The Babylon Bee’s account after the satire website posted that Rachel Levine was its chosen “Man of the Year.”
The Bee’s CEO Seth Dillon tweeted in response to the censorship: “I just received this notice that we’ve been locked out of our account for ‘hateful conduct.’”
The platform sent him a message, he said. explaining: “You may not promote violence against, threaten, or harass other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease.”
