Fellow Free Speech Lover,
This is Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee.
=20
Whether you've seen me on Tucker Carlson's show, or if you've come across o=
ur biting satire online, you probably know that, despite jokes being our br=
ead and butter, The Babylon Bee takes free speech and fighting censorship s=
eriously.
<[link removed]
ign=3DSPO37819>
That is why we've filed a lawsuit against California's Attorney General to =
stop the enforcement of its new censorship law.
=20
If you care about protecting free speech and your right to push back agains=
t radical ideology online, then the Bee needs your support in this fight.
=20
I hope you'll consider standing with us today by becoming a Babylon Bee sub=
scriber. <[link removed]

The state of California passed a law in 2022 that imposes new regulations o=
n social media companies. This law, AB 587, requires companies to give the =
California Attorney General's Office regular reports regarding disinformati=
on, misinformation, extremism, radicalization, and hate speech. The law all=
ows the state to impose fines if companies do not comply with these reporti=
ng regulations.
=20
You may be asking, "Isn't controlling misinformation and hate speech online=
a good thing?"
=20
The truth of the matter is that the government and Big Tech companies worki=
ng together to control what everyone is allowed to say is a bad thing. A go=
od thing is when everyone is allowed to speak freely. Not everyone's defini=
tions of "misinformation" or "hate speech" are the same.
=20
In the case of our work at The Babylon Bee, jokes and satire are often inco=
rrectly cited as examples of misinformation or hateful conduct by organizat=
ions and government agencies who think our views don't fit their prescribed=
narrative. When people in power don't like what you have to say, they can =
use that power to categorize your speech as "hateful," even if what you're =
saying is factually accurate.

rce=3Dae&utm_campaign=3DSPO37819>
This law is not about keeping social media companies transparent - it's abo=
ut censorship.
=20
The state of California, along with other government entities and Big Tech =
firms, is seeking to use censorship to protect their preferred narrative. W=
e believe this is a violation of the First Amendment and we - along with ou=
r co-plaintiffs Tim Pool and Minds - are taking California to court to figh=
t it.
=20
In times like these, your support is crucial. <[link removed]
?utm_medium=3Demail&utm_source=3Dae&utm_campaign=3DSPO37819> If you have no=
t taken the step to become a paid supporter of The Babylon Bee, now is the =
time.
=20
Each paid member helps us keep fighting these attempts to control what we c=
an and can't say. Free speech - even when it comes to satire and jokes - is=
a vital pillar of our nation.
=20
Standing up for this fundamental right is something we will never back away=
from -- and thousands of free speech-loving Americans have shown us that t=
hey're ready to do the same.
=20
Are you one of them? If so, I hope you'll click here to view our subscripti=
on plans and sign up to offer your support. <[link removed]
tm_medium=3Demail&utm_source=3Dae&utm_campaign=3DSPO37819>
=20
With your help, we will continue fighting these battles in and out of the c=
ourtroom, in any way we can.
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]

Thank you in advance for joining us in the battle for free speech.

Fellow Free Speech Lover,
This is Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee.
Whether you've seen me on Tucker Carlson's show, or if you've come across our biting satire online, you probably know that, despite jokes being our bread and butter, The Babylon Bee takes free speech and fighting censorship seriously.
<[link removed]>
That is why we've filed a lawsuit against California's Attorney General to stop the enforcement of its new censorship law.
If you care about protecting free speech and your right to push back against radical ideology online, then the Bee needs your support in this fight.
I hope you'll consider standing with us today by becoming a Babylon Bee subscriber. <[link removed]>
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
The state of California passed a law in 2022 that imposes new regulations on social media companies. This law, AB 587, requires companies to give the California Attorney General's Office regular reports regarding disinformation, misinformation, extremism, radicalization, and hate speech. The law allows the state to impose fines if companies do not comply with these reporting regulations.
You may be asking, "Isn't controlling misinformation and hate speech online a good thing?"
The truth of the matter is that the government and Big Tech companies working together to control what everyone is allowed to say is a bad thing. A good thing is when everyone is allowed to speak freely. Not everyone's definitions of "misinformation" or "hate speech" are the same.
In the case of our work at The Babylon Bee, jokes and satire are often incorrectly cited as examples of misinformation or hateful conduct by organizations and government agencies who think our views don't fit their prescribed narrative. When people in power don't like what you have to say, they can use that power to categorize your speech as "hateful," even if what you're saying is factually accurate.
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
This law is not about keeping social media companies transparent - it's about censorship.
The state of California, along with other government entities and Big Tech firms, is seeking to use censorship to protect their preferred narrative. We believe this is a violation of the First Amendment and we - along with our co-plaintiffs Tim Pool and Minds - are taking California to court to fight it.
In times like these, your support is crucial. <[link removed]> If you have not taken the step to become a paid supporter of The Babylon Bee, now is the time.
Each paid member helps us keep fighting these attempts to control what we can and can't say. Free speech - even when it comes to satire and jokes - is a vital pillar of our nation.
Standing up for this fundamental right is something we will never back away from -- and thousands of free speech-loving Americans have shown us that they're ready to do the same.
Are you one of them? If so, I hope you'll click here to view our subscription plans and sign up to offer your support. <[link removed]>
With your help, we will continue fighting these battles in and out of the courtroom, in any way we can.
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
Thank you in advance for joining us in the battle for free speech.

Fellow Free Speech Lover,
This is Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee.
Whether you've seen me on Tucker Carlson's show, or if you've come across our biting satire online, you probably know that, despite jokes being our bread and butter, The Babylon Bee takes free speech and fighting censorship seriously.
<[link removed]>
That is why we've filed a lawsuit against California's Attorney General to stop the enforcement of its new censorship law.
If you care about protecting free speech and your right to push back against radical ideology online, then the Bee needs your support in this fight.
I hope you'll consider standing with us today by becoming a Babylon Bee subscriber. <[link removed]>
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
The state of California passed a law in 2022 that imposes new regulations on social media companies. This law, AB 587, requires companies to give the California Attorney General's Office regular reports regarding disinformation, misinformation, extremism, radicalization, and hate speech. The law allows the state to impose fines if companies do not comply with these reporting regulations.
You may be asking, "Isn't controlling misinformation and hate speech online a good thing?"
The truth of the matter is that the government and Big Tech companies working together to control what everyone is allowed to say is a bad thing. A good thing is when everyone is allowed to speak freely. Not everyone's definitions of "misinformation" or "hate speech" are the same.
In the case of our work at The Babylon Bee, jokes and satire are often incorrectly cited as examples of misinformation or hateful conduct by organizations and government agencies who think our views don't fit their prescribed narrative. When people in power don't like what you have to say, they can use that power to categorize your speech as "hateful," even if what you're saying is factually accurate.
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
This law is not about keeping social media companies transparent - it's about censorship.
The state of California, along with other government entities and Big Tech firms, is seeking to use censorship to protect their preferred narrative. We believe this is a violation of the First Amendment and we - along with our co-plaintiffs Tim Pool and Minds - are taking California to court to fight it.
In times like these, your support is crucial. <[link removed]> If you have not taken the step to become a paid supporter of The Babylon Bee, now is the time.
Each paid member helps us keep fighting these attempts to control what we can and can't say. Free speech - even when it comes to satire and jokes - is a vital pillar of our nation.
Standing up for this fundamental right is something we will never back away from -- and thousands of free speech-loving Americans have shown us that they're ready to do the same.
Are you one of them? If so, I hope you'll click here to view our subscription plans and sign up to offer your support. <[link removed]>
With your help, we will continue fighting these battles in and out of the courtroom, in any way we can.
Stand with the Bee <[link removed]>
Thank you in advance for joining us in the battle for free speech.
