Of the many topics the radical left has tried to make verboten, there is none more contentious than gender ideology. At the mere suggestion that a man cannot become a woman or that there are only two genders, the Twitter harpies take flight to seek and destroy their target.
Twitter is all too happy to support the mob in its quest for domination. Here is a list of 11 individuals and outlets censored by Twitter for questioning gender ideology.
1. The Babylon Bee
Seth Dillon, CEO of The Babylon Bee, tweeted Sunday that Twitter had locked the satirical website’s account over a story with this headline: “The Babylon Bee’s Man of the Year Is Rachel Levine.”
Levine, assistant secretary for health at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services since last March, is a biological man who identifies as a woman.

Twitter cited its policy against hateful content as the reason for banning The Babylon Bee.

Dillon wrote that Twitter said it would lift the ban 12 hours after the Bee’s tweet promoting its story was deleted. But Dillon has refused to comply.
In a tweet thread posted to his personal Twitter account, Dillon wrote: “We’re not deleting anything. Truth is not hate speech. If the cost of telling the truth is the loss of our Twitter account, then so be it.”
2. Charlie Kirk
Twitter suspended Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk the day after suspending The Babylon Bee.
Mary Margaret Olohan of The Daily Wire reported that Kirk was suspended after he posted this tweet about Levine:
“Richard Levine spent 54 years of his life as a man. He had a wife and a family. 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’ Where are the feminists??”

3. The Christian Post
The Christian Post received an email Sunday from Twitter saying its account had been suspended. The news outlet reported that Twitter took the action over a tweet saying Levine is a man.
As with The Babylon Bee, Twitter offered The Christian Post both the opportunity to delete the tweet to end the suspension and to appeal.
The outlet decided to appeal, but as of Monday was told the appeal was under review.
4. Ken Paxton
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton responded to an article in USA Today lauding Levine as one of its “Women of the Year” by simply tweeting Thursday: “Rachel Levine is a man.”
Twitter slapped a warning label on Paxton’s tweet reading, “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about hateful conduct. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible.”
Paxton’s tweet remains visible, but users can’t interact with it by liking, commenting, or retweeting.
Paxton fired back Friday by releasing an official statement on his Twitter account, claiming that Twitter was censoring him and other conservative voices for stating “an irrefutable scientific fact.” Twitter slapped the same warning label on that tweet and also prevented users from interacting with it.
That same day, Twitter struck again, quarantining a tweet Paxton posted to congratulate University of Virginia swimmer Emma Weyant as the real winner of a race called for Lia Thomas, a biological man who competes as a woman.
5. Jim Banks
Last November, Twitter censored Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., after he expressed criticism that “the title of first female four-star officer gets taken by a man.”
Banks’ tweet referenced a decision to promote Levine to the position of four-star admiral, a decision that made Levine the first transgender person to attain that position.
More controversially, Levine claimed to be the first female to attain the position.
Although Banks didn’t explicitly state whether he would delete the tweet calling Levine a man, Twitter eventually suspended his account.
Two weeks later, Banks had his account restored.
6. Allie Beth Stuckey
Back during the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Twitter temporarily suspended conservative podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey after she criticized New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard.
Hubbard is a biological man who competed in the women’s weightlifting division. Although Hubbard placed last in the relevant group at the Olympics, in the past Hubbard received gold and silver medals in various other women’s weightlifting competitions.
In a tweet commenting on Hubbard’s performance, Stuckey wrote, “Laura Hubbard failing at the event doesn’t make his inclusion fair. He’s still a man, and men shouldn’t compete against women in weightlifting.”
Following that post, Twitter suspended Stuckey’s account for 12 hours.
7. Erick Erickson
Those who defended Stuckey weren’t spared from Twitter’s wrath. Popular radio host and blogger Erick Erickson came under fire after tweeting his support for Stuckey and reiterating that Hubbard is a man.
Erickson’s tweet criticizing Twitter for suspending Stuckey said: “This is absurd. Laurel Hubbard is a man even if Twitter doesn’t like it.”
Twitter temporarily suspended, then reinstated, his account.
8. Esther O’Reilly
Conservatives are acutely aware that Twitter is inconsistent in how it doles out bans for content that goes against its rules. Quillette author Esther O’Reilly is the perfect example.
O’Reilly is another conservative caught up in the Stuckey incident. Following Erickson’s tweet and subsequent suspension, gay conservative Chad Felix Greene reposted Erickson’s exact words and added the hashtag #StopSuppressingSpeech.
Although Twitter took no action against Greene, it did suspend O’Reilly for her own post including the new hashtag and saying: “Laurel Hubbard is a man, get over it.”
Like Stuckey, O’Reilly temporarily was locked out of her account. Twitter gave her the option to delete the post to gain back access sooner, which she took.
Immediately after she regained access to her account, O’Reilly began blasting screenshots of the tweet that prompted her suspension.
9. Lindsay Shepherd
Canadian journalist Lindsay Shepherd was banned from Twitter after she got in a fight online with Canadian transgender activist Jessica Yaniv.
Yaniv is a biological man who identifies as a woman and has filed lawsuits against various groups, accusing them of anti-transgender discrimination.
In July 2019, Shepherd and Yaniv began arguing on Twitter after Yaniv made vulgar comments about Shepherd’s genitalia. Yaniv began mocking Sheperd’s medical condition, which causes a higher than normal rate of miscarriages.
Yaniv wrote: “I heard @realDonaldTrump is building a wall inside of your uterus aka your ‘reproductive abnormality’ hopefully the [wall] works as intended.”
Shepherd responded: “At least I have a uterus, you fat ugly man. Of course, he thinks reproductive issues are something to be mocked.”
That tweet resulted in Twitter’s imposing an (at the time) permanent ban on Shepherd. Yaniv, who had instigated the conflict, remained unpunished.
Shepherd got her account back later that month.
10. Meghan Murphy
Canadian feminist Meghan Murphy was permanently banned from Twitter after she referred to Yaniv by using male pronouns such as he and him.
Murphy previously received temporary suspensions in 2018 for tweeting remarks such as “Men aren’t women” and “How are transwomen not men?
Twitter permanently banned Murphy after she referred to Yaniv specifically as a man. After a story about Yaniv’s suing a beauty parlor for refusing to wax Yaniv’s male genitalia started making the rounds on Twitter, Murphy replied to an image of Yaniv by tweeting, “Yeeeah it’s him.”
Twitter quickly banned her account for life.
Murphy filed an appeal to get her account reinstated, but Twitter denied that appeal.
Murphy currently runs a feminist website where she posts commentary critical of the gender ideology movement.
Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo didn’t listen to Dr. Zev Zelenko about Covid-19. Don’t be a Cuomo. Dr. Zelenko’s new Z-Dtox and Z-Stack nutraceuticals come highly recommended by many doctors.
11. Matt Walsh
Twitter temporarily suspended Daily Wire host Matt Walsh in January over tweets critical of unnamed transgender individuals.
As reported by The Daily Wire, Walsh tweeted, “The greatest female Jeopardy champion of all time is a man. The top female college swimmer is a man. The first female four star admiral in the Public Health Service is a man. Men have dominated female high school track and the female MMA circuit. The patriarchy wins in the end.”
Walsh was referring to Rachel Levine, Lia Thomas, and Amy Schneider, all biological men who claim to be women.
Additionally, Walsh tweeted, “I am not referring to an individual person as if she is two people. Everyone else can run around sounding like maniacs if they want but I will not be participating. No thank you.”
Twitter temporarily suspended Walsh’s account and told him that he would not get his account back until he deleted the tweets.
Walsh deleted the tweets and Twitter restored his account.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
