Babylon Bee CEO: Rachel Levine Is A Man; “Truth Is Not Hate Speech”
Appearing on Tucker Carlson’s show Monday, Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon explained why the satire site is refusing to delete a tweet it sent out about Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine being the “man of the year,” as a joke.
The site received a Twitter suspension for promoting a parody article about the transgender Biden official, which Twitter claimed violated its rules “against hateful conduct.”
Now Twitter will not restore the Babylon Bee account until it deletes the tweet, but Dillon says they will not comply because “Truth is not hate speech.”
“We don’t believe that facts are hate speech, that speaking truth is hate speech,” the CEO said, adding “At some point, people need to stick by this, Tucker. People have to be willing to say ‘listen, if they want us to deny the truth in order to stay on this platform, we speak the truth. Make them kick you off. Make them boot you.”
“It’s like asking us to say 2+2=5,” Dillon told Carlson, adding “We’re sitting here looking at this email that tells us in order to reinstate our account and get access to be able to tweet again, we’ve got to delete this tweet.”
“And the tweet’s a joke, that’s the first thing to get straight here,” Dillon continued, adding “This is satire, it’s just a joke. It’s pretty harmless. It’s certainly not hurting anybody and this is a public official.”
“They’re asking us to basically bend the knee and say ‘we admit that this is hateful conduct, please keep us on your platform.’ And we’re not going to do that, so we don’t know where this ends,” he further urged.
“There’s an appeal process we can go through, but we’re not going to delete the tweet,” Dillon emphasised, further noting that comedy is under attack from woke outrage and that comedians are supposed to make a living by “poking holes in the popular narrative.”
“Comedy is being rendered ineffective where they’re basically making rules about what you can and can’t joke about to the point where we’re saying ‘well, we’re going to continue to make these jokes’ and if we have to, we’ll do it off Twitter,” Dillon asserted.

God does not makes mistakes. EVER!!!!!!!
Even if a man’s junk is tucked & rolled by surgery, that does not make him a woman,
he is still…….a MAN!!!!!!!
Can’t change that DNA. No matter what is done with the body DNA will give you away. By the way. If Rachel really was a woman she would get a face lift. She’s butt ugly.
Didn’t Biden just recently nominate this person for “Women of the Year”?
If he/she/it is “Man Of The Year” seems like we have a dichotomy here and a ruling is called for. SMH
I agree totally. Twitter has become the Nazi SS of the Woke cancel culture— the unwanted social censor of American free speech. For me, it seems that Twitter is for Twits.
TRUTH is NOT HATE SPEECH!!!!!!! RACHEL LEVINE IS A MAN!!!!! TWITTER IS “BULL SHIT” and “STINKS to HIGH HEAVEN”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s obvious that this Levine creep is a man, even if he wants to call himself “Rachel”. Twitter just continues to get worse and worse.
My goodness, this Rachel Lavigne has to be a man, because God no way could have created a woman this ugly! The truth is truth, it’s not hate speech. Seems like this demo crap administration is full of these he/she/ it’s. No wonder our country is going to HELL in a hand basket. This administration is nothing but a clown show and I support Babylon Bee for not backing down.
Amen ..!
I think the world has gone mad! There’s no reason to apologize or give an explanation on the obvious. Richard Levine is a man no matter how man surgeries and denial the individual wants to shout. If the queers want to be a different thing, so be it, but you can not change what God has created, no matter what dress you wear, makeup and such. If you want to be different than be different, BUT stop pushing your weirdness on the straight and normal people. MAYBE something got jumbled up in the oven and it came out as a flop! LETS STIP WASTING ON TIME ON SUCH NONSENSE! How about the border and the US citizens money paying for all the illegals and stop illegally breaking the Constitution!!! NOW, that’s something to talk about!
I totally agree, if Rachel is a woman, she is the ugliest “ woman” I have seen. My guess is that he could not satisfy his marital duties as a man, so he decided that he would become a “ woman”. A loser in every aspect. Put a bag over your head and shut up, Rachael!!
hate speech, ignorance, and racism is all the radical right has left.
Rachel Levine is a male to female transexual. they have always existed.
As a Christian, it’s important to men what we’re told Jesus said about the transpeople of his time. “Some were born that way; some were made that way by others. some chose that for themselves, so as to be closer to GOD. And yes, they may enter the Kingdom of Heaven”. he was speaking of eunuchs; who were (are) castrated men, whose bodies then feminized by hormonal change; exactly what male to female transpeople are.
