Twitter Bans The Babylon Bee (Reinstated)

Twitter Banned Oops!

Twitter permanently banned The Babylon Bee, a satirical news outlet, for violating the “rules against platform manipulation and spam.” The account was reinstated shortly after the situation receieved significant attention.

We are back. Twitter destroyed our headquarters with a drone strike, but we are being assured it was an honest mistake.

In case @jack (may he live forever) doesn’t reinstate us next time, toss a coin to your friendly neighborhood satirists.
