Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin on Friday blamed the “intolerant powers-that-be” at Instagram for taking down a post of her son “acting like a normal kid.”
“CENSORSHIP is to sharing opinions as LYNCHING is to justice!” Palin wrote via Instagram along with a picture of the social media sites message to her about the censored post. “Unbelievable. Instagram took down a post of my son Trig acting like a normal kid ~ which I am so proud he can do. My heart soars when Trig proves hes a “normal” kidI cant even explain how it tickles our whole family. But the intolerant powers-that-be, sitting in a seat of judgement, think not? The nauseating, downright evil hypocrisy from their parent company, Facebook, continues ~ but only aimed at commonsense conservatives? When Obama was POTUS, he MOCKED children with Down Syndrome on late night tv, and nary a word of outrage from these same folks. But theyll censor my post of my most favorite person in the world… Inexplicable. Unbelievable. And scary.”
The former vice-presidential candidate also delivered a knock on Facebook, which she accused of censoring traffic to her website, and its founder, Mark Zuckerberg.
“Facebook continues to censor traffic flow to my website, too,” she wrote. “Ummm, Zuckerberg, you were in Alaska recently.. did you not learn a thing about Mama Grizzlies when you visited?”
