One of the most important free speech cases of
our time is going before the Supreme Court, and you probably
haven’t heard about it.

Right now, both Texas and Florida are battling
to uphold their common-sense bills that prohibit viewpoint
discrimination on social media. These bills were passed for a
reason — conservative voices are being suppressed. Disfavored
opinions (and even jokes) that are out of step with the
progressive narrative have resulted in countless violations and
suspensions. And that’s not an exaggeration; we’ve experienced
many cases of discriminatory censorship firsthand. In fact, we
were locked out of Twitter for 8 months just because we told a
joke that referred to a male person (“Admiral” Rachel Levine) as
a man.

It’s gotten completely out of hand.

Thankfully, Texas and Florida decided to do
something about it. They drafted and passed legislation that
would make it unlawful for big social media companies to engage
in viewpoint discrimination. But, as expected, the social media
companies challenged these laws, leading to an upcoming showdown
at the Supreme Court. What the highest Court decides here will
have far-reaching implications not just for us, but for everyone
who uses social media to share their views and defend their
values.

That’s why Babylon Bee has filed an amicus
brief in support of the Florida and Texas laws.

This is nothing new for us. We’ve long been
committed to defending free speech in the public square. Here are
some of the free speech battles we’ve taken on over the years:

* We filed an amicus brief with the U.S.
Supreme Court in support of a humorist who was actually jailed
because of a parody Facebook page.
* We sued the Attorney General's Office in the state of
California to block the enforcement of a law requiring social
media companies to regularly report "misinformation,
disinformation, extremism, radicalization, and hate speech."
* We sued the New York Attorney General too, for the same
censorship debauchery.
* We refused to delete a tweet that resulted in the suspension of
our Twitter account with over 1 million followers
* We told Mark Zuckerberg he sucks

Fighting on the front lines for free speech in
the public square isn’t easy or inexpensive, but it’s the right
thing to do. And it’s making a difference. But we can’t do it
without you.
