David Horowitz Freedom Center

From Vimeo Ironically Censors Babylon Bee CEO’s Speech About…Censorship?

By Catherine Salgado

In an intensely ironic move, Vimeo censored a talk from The Babylon Bee CEO about censorship.

The Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon spoke at the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s Restoration Weekend. During his speech, Dillon discussed Big Tech’s ongoing censorship of his satire site and its fight for freedom of speech. After the David Horowitz Freedom Center (DHFC) posted Dillon’s speech on Vimeo, the video platform removed it and banned the Freedom Center’s channel because of the video highlighting Dillon, according to DHFC investigative journalist and writer Daniel Greenfield. The DHFC’s channel now brings up an error message on Vimeo.

Greenfield explained on FrontPage Magazine that Dillon was speaking to the DHFC about Twitter canceling The Babylon Bee last year for naming “transgender” Adm. ‘Rachel’ Levine the “Man of the Year.” While Elon Musk restored The Bee’s account after purchasing Twitter (now X), The Bee’s battle against Big Tech censorship continues. After the DHFC uploaded its various talks and panels, including Dillon’s, on Vimeo, the videos were removed…

The Restoration Weekend addressed many controversial topics, including Islamic terrorists, medical authoritarianism and alleged election fraud, but Greenfield declared that Vimeo cited Dillon’s talk as the reason for its censorship. Specifically, Vimeo censored the DHFC for Dillon’s discussion of the previous Twitter censorship, reportedly repeating Twitter’s former accusation of “Hate Speech.”
