'CENSORSHIP is to sharing opinions as LYNCHING is to justice'
Sarah Palin has slammed Instagram as biased against conservatives after the company removed a controversial image she posted which used her own son with Down Syndrome to mock liberal protesters.
Palin posted the meme to her Instagram page on Tuesday, and the company removed it on Friday for violating 'community guidelines' after intense outcry over the image.
The image showed heroic female warriors with the label 'What protestors [sic] think we see', contrasted with pictures of Palin's 10-year-old son Trig melting down with the label 'What we really see'.
In a new post on Friday, Palin shared the takedown notice from Instagram and excoriated the company and parent firm Facebook in a lengthy diatribe accusing them of censorship and political bias.
'CENSORSHIP is to sharing opinions as LYNCHING is to justice! Unbelievable. Instagram took down a post of my son Trig acting like a normal kid ~ which I am so proud he can do,' Palin wrote.
Palin continued: 'Unbelievable. And scary. Facebook continues to censor traffic flow to my website, too.
Controversy erupted after Palin posted the original meme, which appeared to be in response to intensifying protests over the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Palin has, to her credit, fought against attacks on people with Down syndrome in the past.

The owners of Facebook and similar services appear to be evil.
They have become wealthy, so they think that they are also wise.
Liberals can't get past people's "tribes." Their "intersections." When they see Palin's son, they see a member of a "protected class" and can't get past his Down's Syndrome to see a child having a normal fit. Therefore, they must protect Trig - must keep him safe, because they cannot see beyond his differences.
