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.

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] )

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.

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.

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