Friend,
=20
If you=E2=80=99ve spent any time on Facebook, you=E2=80=99ve probably seen =
the occasional post from the Babylon Bee. Maybe you=E2=80=99ve even had a l=
augh at one or two of them.
=20
But if you=E2=80=99re familiar with our work, you may have noticed that our=
posts aren't showing up in your Facebook newsfeed anymore.
=20
That's because Facebook is suppressing our content.
=20
Take a look at this chart showing engagement with our posts over the past y=
ear:
[link removed]
Despite our growing audience=E2=80=94we have many more followers now than w=
e did a year ago=E2=80=94we're seeing a drastic, steady decline in reach an=
d engagement. It used to be that 80% of our site's traffic came from Facebo=
ok. Now, it's down to just 30%. Babylon Bee articles posted to Facebook use=
d to go viral, generating hundreds of thousands of shares. But that just do=
esn't happen anymore. Facebook doesn't allow it.
=20
In some cases, our posts aren't merely limited in reach =E2=80=94 they're c=
ompletely suppressed. Here's an example of a recent post that Facebook prev=
ented from being seen by anyone:
We'd have reached more people if we'd printed the article and posted it on =
a single telephone pole in a small town.
=20
Facebook has assigned a representative to our account. He's supposed to com=
municate with us and help us resolve problems. But when we ask him directly=
if Facebook is limiting our page's reach, or suppressing shares of our art=
icles, he refuses to answer me. He literally doesn't respond. He'll respond=
to other questions, but not that one.
=20
[link removed]
The silence speaks volumes.
=20
So what can be done about this? For now, there's not much that can be done.=
Facebook is a private company. While they shouldn't be allowed to engage i=
n politically motivated viewpoint discrimination and still enjoy the benefi=
ts of Section 230 immunity, there's nothing under the law that currently pr=
events them from doing just that. This needs to change.
=20
But in the meantime, all we can do is ask for direct support from free-thin=
king friends like you.
=20
As someone who values free speech, I=E2=80=99m asking you to consider becom=
ing a subscriber to the Babylon Bee today. By becoming a subscriber, you re=
duce our dependence on Big Tech and ensure we'll continue to have a presenc=
e and a platform, whether Facebook likes it or not.
Subscribe
[link removed]
Plus, if you become a premium subscriber, you=E2=80=99ll get a beautiful co=
ffee table book chock-full of our greatest articles, preserved for posterit=
y. Let=E2=80=99s see Facebook try to censor that!
=20
Thank you for standing with us against the tyranny of Big Tech. We don't ne=
ed Facebook if we've got you in our corner.

Please see a special message from our sponsor.
Friend,
If you’ve spent any time on Facebook, you’ve probably seen the occasional post from the Babylon Bee. Maybe you’ve even had a laugh at one or two of them.
But if you’re familiar with our work, you may have noticed that our posts aren't showing up in your Facebook newsfeed anymore.
That's because Facebook is suppressing our content.
Take a look at this chart showing engagement with our posts over the past year:
[link removed]
Despite our growing audience—we have many more followers now than we did a year ago—we're seeing a drastic, steady decline in reach and engagement. It used to be that 80% of our site's traffic came from Facebook. Now, it's down to just 30%. Babylon Bee articles posted to Facebook used to go viral, generating hundreds of thousands of shares. But that just doesn't happen anymore. Facebook doesn't allow it.
In some cases, our posts aren't merely limited in reach — they're completely suppressed. Here's an example of a recent post that Facebook prevented from being seen by anyone:
We'd have reached more people if we'd printed the article and posted it on a single telephone pole in a small town.
Facebook has assigned a representative to our account. He's supposed to communicate with us and help us resolve problems. But when we ask him directly if Facebook is limiting our page's reach, or suppressing shares of our articles, he refuses to answer me. He literally doesn't respond. He'll respond to other questions, but not that one.
[link removed]
The silence speaks volumes.
So what can be done about this? For now, there's not much that can be done. Facebook is a private company. While they shouldn't be allowed to engage in politically motivated viewpoint discrimination and still enjoy the benefits of Section 230 immunity, there's nothing under the law that currently prevents them from doing just that. This needs to change.
But in the meantime, all we can do is ask for direct support from free-thinking friends like you.
As someone who values free speech, I’m asking you to consider becoming a subscriber to the Babylon Bee today. By becoming a subscriber, you reduce our dependence on Big Tech and ensure we'll continue to have a presence and a platform, whether Facebook likes it or not.

Plus, if you become a premium subscriber, you’ll get a beautiful coffee table book chock-full of our greatest articles, preserved for posterity. Let’s see Facebook try to censor that!
Thank you for standing with us against the tyranny of Big Tech. We don't need Facebook if we've got you in our corner.
