Facebook Blocks Trump Board Member for Pro-Life Post Contrasting Trans and Pro-Choice Arguments

On Wednesday, Trump 2020 advisory board member Jenna Ellis Rives shared a pro-life post from blogger Matt Walsh, pointing out how transgender activism undermines key pro-choice arguments. Facebook flagged the post for "hate speech."

"Facebook continues to suppress conservatives critiquing the progressive left and calling out their hypocrisy," Rives told PJ Media. "We never see this kind of suppression when it's actual hatred from the left, for instance, attacks against Mike Pence for his Christian beliefs."

"Facebook's 'community standards' simply mean they are in the business of censoring conservative thought," she added.

The post merely included a photo of a hilarious Matt Walsh tweet. Walsh noted key pro-choice arguments about abortion being a woman's right, so only women can speak about the issue. He also referenced arguments used by transgender activists, celebrating biological men who identify as women as being "real women."

"Gender is a social construct but I am woman hear me roar but anyone can be a woman but no uterus no opinion but transwomen are women but I demand women's rights but men are women but men are scum but drag queens are beautiful but appropriation is evil," Walsh tweeted.

Indeed, transgender activism does undermine many central tenets of feminism, and radical feminists have condemned the idea that men can "become" women by identifying themselves as such.

Lesbian feminist Julia Beck has spoken out against transgender activism as a "Trojan horse" that will remove key rights from women. Miriam Ben-Shalom, the first lesbian to be reinstated to the Army after getting booted out for her sexuality, emphatically denied any connections between Trump's new military transgender policy and Don't Ask, Don't Tell. She found such comparisons offensive.

Yet the post pointing out the incongruity of transgender and feminist arguments was branded "hate speech" on Facebook. When Rives posted it, the social media platform warned: "your post goes against our Community Standards on hate speech."
