Richard Dawkins Says His Facebook Account Deleted for Posting His Opinion, Elon Musk Responds Saying ‘Wow’
Elon Musk surprised to a post by British evolutionary biologist, zoologist and atheist Richard Dawkins who said his Facebook account was deleted over posting his opinion. Tech billionaire took the opportunity and said 'Wow'.
Richard Dawkins, a British evolutionary biologist, zoologist and renowned author, recently posted on X, "My entire Facebook account has been deleted, seemingly (no reason given) because I tweeted that genetically male boxers such as Imane Khalif (XY undisputed) should not fight women in Olympics." Also known as one of the leading atheists, Richard Dawkins said that he posted his opinion on Facebook, which was open to civilised arguments but he was outright banned. Elon Musk, who previously criticised Meta's platforms, responded to the post saying, "Wow". Elon Musk's X Sued by Twitter’s Former Executive Chairman Omid Kordestani Claiming Tech Billionaire Refused To Cash His USD 20 Million Worth Shares.
Richard Dawkins Said His Facebook Account Was Deleted
My entire @facebook account has been deleted, seemingly (no reason given) because I tweeted that genetically male boxers such as Imane Khalif (XY undisputed) should not fight women in Olympics. Of course my opinion is open to civilised argument. But outright censorship?
