It remains unclear at the time of writing whether Twitter moderators removed the tweet or the Bee did.ĭillon later confirmed that the Bee’s editor-in-chief, Kyle Mann, has also been locked out of his account for an offensive tweet about “concentration camps” and the persecution of Uyghurs by China.

On Twitter, Dillon refused to take the tweet down. By Tuesday, however, the offending tweet had been removed. “We have to bend the knee, kiss the ring, bow to the towering statue of LGBTQ politics when the trumpets play, or we stay on timeout indefinitely.” “When cultural revolutions happen, the comics and entertainers are the first to be targeted by the revolutionaries,” he said. He said the website is refusing to “succumb to their ideological madness”. Dillon claimed the Bee was being “censored” in an opinion piece for The New York Post, one of America’s biggest tabloids.
