(LifeSite News) LifeSiteNews has been locked out of our main Twitter account (@LifeSite) since December 9, 2019 due to an “offensive” tweet regarding Jonathan Yaniv, who is famous for taking 15 beauticians to the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal for their refusal to wax his genitals. The tweet was a link to a LifeSite article titled, “Trans activist Jonathan ‘Jessica’ Yaniv ‘shocked…confused’ gynecologist won’t see him,” which Twitter deemed was a “violation” of its “rules.”
At the time, Twitter gave us the option to delete the tweet and reactivate our account right away. LifeSite remained steadfast that our tweet did not violate any rules, and we sought several appeals with Twitter, while looking into legal action against the company.
