Controversial Black Lives Matter activist Shaun King — who had claimed he aided in the release of two US citizens that were kidnapped by Hamas and has accused Israel of genocide — had his Instagram account blocked Monday.
King, who has 6 million followers on the Meta-owned site, posted a video message through a friend’s Instagram account announcing he was deactivated by the social media platform.
King condemned what he called “genocide” and “war crimes” committed by Israel in its military campaign in the Gaza Strip, which was launched in retaliation after Hamas terrorists killed approximately 1,200 Israelis and abducted about 250 on Oct. 7. “Frustrated that Instagram has banned me for fighting for Palestine, and speaking up for the human rights and dignity of Palestinians, but I refuse to betray my values and principles by staying silent about this genocide and the war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank,” King wrote in the early morning hours.

Good, if true.
The left loves censorship except when it happens to them.
Talcum X....

How does he like being banned from a platform?
Palestine is a term the Romans invented after they crushed the Jewish revolt, well after they killed Jesus. Prior to that, there was no reference to Palestine.
Like Islam, it is a fake term. based on lies.
BLM...bad collecitive...divisive.
Cry me a river.
I guess they chose “Palestinian” because it had more pizzazz than “random arabs from Jordan”.

Thank you Zuck (even a broken clock is right twice a day).
Still not one word of condemnation from Talcum X about the atrocities committed by his Hamas bedfellows on Oct 7 that started the war, not surprisingly. He’d openly cheer Israel’s annihilation.
He’s keepin’ busy between police involved shootings that allow his group to shake businesses down and declare the fallen ex-con thugs to be saints.
The now difficult to find statistics showed trends of roughly 40% of black people are anti-semitic. BLM would have an easy time finding support for Hamas and the PLO.
During this Channukah and Christmas period here is a reminder: When the Charlton Heston and Cecil B. Demille version of the Ten Commandments was made, they put black people as “strangers” who were welcomed by Moses to the Passover Seder because the producer and director wanted to promote the fact Jews were in favor of the Civil Rights struggle and were in the marches and fundraising for such people as Dr. Martin Luther King.
How ironic Jews are another victim of the Left’s disdainful hatred today.
Cancel culture come around with Karma as wingman...
Awwwwww! Hey sean, 🖕
Whitey doth protest too much, methinks.
