TikTok Suspends YAF for Criticizing Transgender Ideology

TikTok has banned Young America’s Foundation from posting videos to its platform, alleging the Foundation committed “hate speech” for claiming that gender is not a choice.

After removing YAF’s video of Dr. Ryan T. Anderson’s speech on gender ideology for “hate speech” on Wednesday, TikTok banned the account from posting altogether until January 18, claiming YAF had violated the platform’s “community guidelines.”

The video in question was a clip from Dr. Anderson’s speech at YAF’s National Conservative Student Conference in which he explains why gender is not malleable nor a choice. Using scientific facts, he shares the one truth with the audience.

The speech can still be viewed on YouTube.

Apparently, facts are hateful. And now, they can’t even be uttered. The truth is just that controversial. How can rational thought survive when facts are banned?
