Big Tech comes for Hercules! Kevin Sorbo’s official Facebook account reportedly deleted with no explanation

“Hercules” star and devout Christian Kevin Sorbo has officially been de-platformed by Facebook which has reportedly deleted his page with over 500,000 followers with no explanation.

Facebook has not responded to a request from Sorbo asking that they explain why he should be, in effect, censored and deleted from the social media platform. Sorbo is best known for the hit TV series “Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.” He has also starred in movies such as “Soul Surfer,” “God’s Not Dead,” “Let There Be Light,” and “A Miracle in East Texas.”


Sorbo tweeted on Friday concerning the development: “BREAKING: Facebook has deleted my official account with over 500,000 followers I have created a new page, spread the word!” So far, the page has few followers, far less than his original following.

The actor has been an ardent critic of progressivism, liberalism, and cancel-culture. He just recently posted: “Guess it’s time to cancel Disney Plus” after one of their stars was fired for stating a politically conservative opinion. Sorbo is also an ardent Trump supporter.

Sorbo has also criticized those such as Colin Kaepernick. In 2018, he posted: “I just returned a pair of Nike shoes to the store. I complained that they hurt my feet when I stand for the [national anthem].” He has questioned the effectiveness of masks during the pandemic and is staunchly against abortion.

The actor has been extremely critical of the Biden administration. On Friday, Sorbo slammed President Biden over reports that he’s allegedly threatening to ban travel from Florida using the coronavirus as an excuse. “So banning travel from China to the United States is xenophobic, but installing that same travel ban on Florida is perfectly acceptable. Got it,” tweeted Sorbo.

The erasing of Sorbo on Facebook is one more example of a conservative being silenced on social media platforms.

While a number of liberals on Twitter celebrated the erasure of Sorbo, others said he should collaborate with axed ‘Mandalorian’ star Gina Carano. She was ‘canceled’ after posting on social media against political intolerance. It caused the left to be massively triggered and got her fired from Disney. Now, she is producing and starring in a movie over at Ben Shapiro’s The Daily Wire. Sorbo could presumably find a home there as well.

Facebook has recently expanded its list of “false” and “debunked” claims concerning Covid-19 and vaccines. That policy is allegedly being used to boot conservatives from the platform.

Sorbo is far from alone in being censored on social media. In one of many examples, Facebook also allegedly suspended a Bible professor for seven days after he put up a post criticizing Biden’s policies supporting transgender individuals.

The spirit of antichrist has been very busy; especially of late.

He stuck up for Carano, and called Disney on being hypocrites for not firing the Director who spoke of MAGA kids being fed into a woodchipper.

I'm sure Facebook Archivist Winston Smith can explain this.

Facebook is a perfect example of socialism:
You get it for free but the quality sucks.
You have no say in how it works.
The guy who runs it gets rich.
There's no real competition.
You have no privacy.
And if you say one thing they don't like
they'll shut you up.

This is the Farcebook Is Evil ping list.

The most disturbing part for me in everything we’re beginning to see now, is not only how evil the MSM and Social Media are or even how corrupted our politicians and court systems are,

Its as if a curtain has been pulled back allowing all Americans to see it. It may be that it has been this bad for a long time, but it was hidden away out of sight, even abortion (Moloch) was in the corner of the room, only those awake and looking would see it for how bad it was even a few years ago,

What I mean to say here is this: only the Holy Spirit can pull back the veil and show the Principalities and Powers in operation as we’re told about in Ephesians 6:12, meaning it would indicate to me that some degree of operational change is happening right now in the spiritual realm. Believers should ask and watch and pray on these things for understanding if they be so or not,

If this is even remotely true, it cannot bode well for this Earth and to those that dwell on it, believers in Christ Jesus are not Earth dwellers and this world is not our home,

Prayers for Kevin Sorbo to rebuke this spirit of Lawlessness and anti-Christ attacking him and his family, prayers for a hedge of protection and the precious blood of Jesus to cover him and to cover and protect all those in agreement reading on this thread, this has to be a daily prayer in all our lives,

Sorbo is best known for Andromeda, IMHO...

In multiple universes at that...

The tweet that probably resulted in the Left's outrage had Sorbo saying:

Just so we’re all clear, he still has his job at Disney
