What is this interview about?
In this interview, Epoch Times host Roman Balmakou interviewed a prominent personality Seth Dillon, CEO of Babylon Bee at Fact Matters.
Roman Balmakou said, “It has been said by many people that right now we live in a world where it is quite difficult to distinguish satire from reality.” He presented three examples to show how difficult it is. In the talk with Seth Dhillon, Roman asked the reason behind the suspension of Babylon Bee from social media platforms Twitter and TikTok along with email service providers despite having been heavily censored. Besides, he also discussed the importance of comedy and the difficulties in writing satirically in an over-ridiculous world.
In response to Roman’s question, Seth said, “I don’t know what happens with these things. You are often suspended for policy violations, and when you ask why, they say they don’t have any reason. There is an app where you can have direct messages from different platforms in one box. It is a very useful tool, and we use this tool to draw customers’ support. Here we don’t know the reason behind permanent suspension. They said we violets their content policy. All this stuff happens, and you are never safe from these platforms.”
Later, Seth said that their content was real. They can trust fake news headlines, but there was a truth to these jokes that were the point. They tried to speak the truth using humor and comedy.
The left was full of assault against the truth and against rationality. He further added, “if you say you to make 2+2=5 and if you joke about how to make 2+2=4, they would say you violated the rules. We only try to show reality through comedy and satire.”
Later they talked about the controversy regarding Rachel Levine. Seth said he depicted what exactly the reality was. Roman winded up the interview with Seth Dhillon after discussing what rights and freedom a person has regarding social media.

Why was Babylon Bee suspended?
Babylon Bee, a well-known website for its satirical comments, was suspended by Twitter for infringing its rule and promoting malicious content. The website shared a featured article on Twitter that vested Rachel Levine, a transgender government official, the title of ‘The Man of the Year”. Twitter cited this piece of work as harmful content.

Seth Dhillon, CEO of Babylon Bee, announced the suspension of his website on his personal Twitter account.
Twitter said the account has been blocked for purportedly relinquishing in “promoting violence against or directly attack or threaten other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease.”

However, Twitter agreed to restore the account provided they would delete their tweet. But after Twitter’s final verdict, Seth decided his team would not delete any content.
Further, he said that they were not deleting anything. The truth was not hate speech. If the cost of telling the truth was losing their Twitter account, then let it be.
He instructed his followers not to bend before the censorship of Big Tech. He wrote, “Insist that 2 and 2 make 4 even if Twitter tries to compel you to say otherwise. Make them ban tens of millions of us.”
