Twitter Locked My Account for Telling the Truth About ‘Woman of the Year’ Rachel Levine

Over the weekend, Twitter locked me out of my account for stating the obvious fact that Rachel Levine, the U.S. assistant secretary for health, is a man. The corporate press, Big Tech, and even the U.S. government all refer to Levine, 64, as a “trans woman.” But this only means he dresses and presents himself as a woman, and asks the rest of the world to indulge him in what amounts to at best a flight of fancy, and at worst a dangerous delusion. And for the most part, the world obliges.

But there is no way around the stubborn fact of Levine’s manhood. He lived the first 54 years of his life as a man, fathered two children with his wife of 25 years, and only decided to “transition” about ten years ago. Twitter has told me it will unlock my account if I delete my offending tweet, but I’m not going to. Rachel Levine is a man, he will always be a man, and I refuse to pretend he’s not.

I’m not the first commentator to get locked out of Twitter for pointing this out. Indeed, my offending tweet was merely linking to a column I wrote last week detailing how Twitter had locked out The Babylon Bee, its Editor in Chief Kyle Mann, its founder Adam Ford, and Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA, all of whom ran afoul of Twitter’s terms of service for saying Levine is a man. (Actually, Mann got locked out for joking, in response to the Bee’s account getting locked, “Maybe they’ll let us back into our @TheBabylonBee Twitter account if we throw a few thousand Uighurs in a concentration camp.” But you get the point.)

In Twitter-world, saying Levine is a man amounts to “hateful conduct.” As you can well imagine, Twitter’s hateful conduct policy is rather capacious. It isn’t limited to prohibitions on obvious things like violent threats or harassment, or calling for harm to specific groups of people. It also includes, “targeted misgendering or deadnaming of transgender individuals.” (Read more from “Twitter Locked My Account for Telling the Truth About ‘Woman of the Year’ Rachel Levine” HERE)
