The Babylon Bee sought its revenge after Twitter mistakenly suspended the 
popular conservative satirical site, which caused an uproar, from the 
platform.

The Bee ran a story Tuesday poking fun at Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who has 
repeatedly accused of censoring conservatives.

"Let Me Be Clear: Twitter Is A Platform For ANY And ALL Ideas I 
Wholeheartedly Agree With," the headline of the satirical piece read.

In the satirical article, Dorsey fictitiously tweeted:  “Let me be very 
clear: I am a far-left progressive, in a company full of far-left 
progressives, in a city full of far-left progressives, in an industry full 
of far-left progressives. But Twitter is not just for people like me who 
dwell in liberal cocoons—no, Twitter is also a place for ANYBODY else who 
shares my opinions exactly."

TWITTER APOLOGIZES AFTER BRIEFLY SUSPENDING THE BABYLON BEE'S ACCOUNT

The Bee continued to skewer Dorsey.

“Please know that at Twitter we’re committed to increasing the collective 
health, openness, and civility of public conversation, by banning everyone 
who disagrees with our progressive religion,” the fake tweet continued 
according to the Bee's satirical reporting.

The Babylon Bee, which is widely seen as a conservative alternative to 
"The Onion," was founded in 2016. It describes itself as "Christian News 
Satire" and has become known for lampooning Democratic politicians and 
liberal media outlets.

Twitter apologized on Monday to The Babylon Bee after the tech giant 
briefly suspended the site's account.

"We're writing to let you know that we've unsuspended your account. We're 
sorry for the inconvenience and hope to see you back on Twitter soon," 
Twitter wrote to Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon. "We have systems that find 
and remove multiple automated spam accounts in bulk, and yours was flagged 
as spam by mistake. Please note that it may take an hour or so for your 
follower and following numbers to return to normal."

A spokesperson for Twitter gave Fox News a similar statement about the 
Bee's suspension.

"This account was mistakenly caught in a spam filter," the spokesperson 
said. "This has been reversed and the account has been reinstated."
