Instagram deletes post from CEO of The Babylon Bee, threatens to delete his account if it violates rules again: Along with deleting a post from Seth Dillon, CEO of the Christian satire news site The Babylon Bee, Instagram also threatened to delete Dillon's account if he violated the platform's rules one more time. "Sane people never did this in the first place," Dillon wrote in his now-deleted post above a screenshot of a headline from the left-wing news outlet SLATE that read "It's About Time for Us to Stop Wearing Masks Outside." The post was deleted for violating two of Instagram's rules: its policy against "harmful false information" and its policy against "hate speech or symbols," according to a screenshot of the notice Instagram sent to Dillon. The Babylon Bee CEO later tweeted the same post Instagram had removed, but Twitter did not censor the post. "They do not allow you to express the perfectly reasonable *opinion* that masks don't need to be worn outside," Dillon said in a tweet referring to Instagram's threat, and removal of his post. "It is far more harmful to silence opinions than to walk around outside without a mask."
