Friend,

When Elon Musk bought Twitter, he sent me a DM that said, “Do you want the
Babylon Bee restored? There will be no censorship of humor.”

We’ve been trying to write a joke worth $44 billion ever since.

But, in all seriousness – free speech is no joke (not even a multibillion
dollar one).

The Bee would know – not only did Twitter deplatform us, but other woke Big
Tech firms have tried to silence our voice as well.


* Facebook has deleted our posts and deactivated our account on several
occasions.
* Front, our internal email service at the time, terminated our account and
left us unable to communicate with each other and wider world.
* And, in a particularly ironic move, Vimeo permanently suspended the David
Horowitz Freedom Center’s account because they posted a talkI gave on
censorship.

It’s clear woke, left-wing tech elitists can’t abide by satire that dares mock
their progressive orthodoxy.

We’re not the only attempted victims of their censorship regime, either.

They’ve gone after our First Amendment ally Musk, too – Disney, Apple, IBM,
and Sony are just some of the companies who have pulled their advertising from
X to protest the fact that it platforms the Bee and others accused of
“wrongthink.”

All this amounts to a sustained, coordinated attack on free thought and
expression. These pillars are central to our mission of speaking truth through
humor.

No matter how much pressure they exert, the Bee will never back down. Free
speech is worth more than whatever they can take from us.

To people with integrity, like Musk, principles are worth more than money.

But we won’t give them what they want. We won’t stop telling jokes. More
importantly, we won’t stop telling the truth.

Sure, you may be thinking, a billionaire like Musk can afford to take the hit
when radical Leftists try to force X into conformity and submission.

That’s what we thought, too, but we noticed something in the midst of the
censorship campaigns waged against us – we had a superpower progressives
couldn’t see.

And that’s our subscribers.

The Bee could not have taken the stand it did against Twitter if we did not
have the support of each and every subscriber.
