Marjorie Taylor Greene, an anti-trans bigot and congresswoman from Georgia, used the deadname of the U.S. assistant secretary for health and referred to gender-affirming surgery using a derogatory phrase. While a warning was put on the message, it is not going to be removed from the site.
This is a violation of the rules about hate speech. It has been determined that it may be in the public's interest for theTweet to remain accessible.
The questions were not immediately responded to by the company, asking for more details about the decision. The company suspended the Babylon Bee for deadnaming Levine.
A video of Levine, a four star admiral, who was on MSNBC recently talking about the judicial ruling that halted many civil rights protections for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Questioning (LGBT) community in schools and the workplace, has been posted.
"We really want to base our treatment to affirm and to support and empower these youth, not to limit their participation in activities, sports, and even their ability to get gender affirming treatment in their state."
It is possible to understand why the site would want to keep politicians from posting hate speech. If you know where your elected officials stand on issues, you can decide not to support that candidate in the next election.
To feel like the platform they are using isn't a cesspool of the most extreme far-right nutjobs is something that needs to be weighed against. It is not pretty, we have seen it in the form of Gab. There is no reasonable person who would want to spend time on that site.
There is a principle of consistently obeying the rules. Before he was banned from the platform, President Donald Trump had spouted a lot of bad things. Even though he was the most powerful person in the world, Trump was banned from the site for breaking its rules. It is not clear why some people are banned from the platform while others are not.
Some people might think that Trump was banned for trying to overthrow the government. If that is the norm, I have some bad news about Marjorie Taylor Greene. Really bad news at the moment.
