Twitter CENSORS TPUSA Founder Charlie Kirk After Declaring Rachel Levine’s Gender

Alexander Hall March 23rd, 2022

Twitter censored Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk for declaring that United States Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine had lived for many years as a male. 

Who’s the man? It depends on who you ask, apparently. “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. He had a wife and 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??’"

Twitter reportedly said that the tweet violated its "rules against hateful conduct." Twitter claimed that naming Levine's biological sex and noting Levine's given name was "hateful," according to The Post Millenial. Twitter states in its rules on “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. That should terrify every American, even those who disagree with me. What they want is submission. They have become the enemy of the truth."

Twitter also appears to have 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.’”

He said he received a message from the platform 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.”
