Twitter temporarily suspends conservative Matt Walsh for tweets about gender
January 07, 2022
" ... I just got suspended on Twitter because I pointed out that biological males are men," Walsh said during an appearance on Fox News
Twitter has slapped conservative commentator Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire with a 12-hour suspension over tweets he posted that apparently ran afoul of radical leftist gender dogma.
The Daily Wire reported that the clock for the 12-hour penalty will only begin once Walsh deletes the tweets that the social media platform has already censored.
"The greatest female Jeopardy champion of all time is a man. The top female college swimmer is a man. The first female four star admiral in the Public Health Service is a man. Men have dominated female high school track and the female MMA circuit. The patriarchy wins in the end," Walsh tweeted, according to the outlet.
"I am not referring to an individual person as if she is two people. Everyone else can run around sounding like maniacs if they want but I will not be participating. No thank you," he wrote in another tweet, which the Daily Wire said has also been censored.
Walsh, the author of a children's book that takes aim at radical gender ideology, mentioned Twitter's action against him during an appearance on the Fox News program "Tucker Carlson Tonight."
" ... I just got suspended on Twitter because I pointed out that biological males are men," Walsh noted while on the show.

His tweet was apparently referencing multiple transgender individuals who have captured significant public attention.
Amy Schneider, a biological male who identifies as a female, is being hailed as the first woman on "Jeopardy!" ever to surpass $1 million in winnings on the show.
Transgender University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, who is also a biological male, has been making waves while winning races against women. In a 1650 free last month, Thomas won by about 38 seconds, according to Penn Athletics.
And a press release last year described U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine as the "first-ever female four-star admiral" of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. But like the other aforementioned individuals, Levine is a biological man.
Correction: This story previously said that Thomas won a 1650 free by more than 38 seconds — the win was actually just under 38 seconds and the story has been corrected to note that Thomas won that race by about 38 seconds.
