MADEbyJIMBOB is an anti-politically correct satirist. He was the subject of a story in The Federalist a few days ago about the memes he puts up on Instagram and one that recently was removed. JimBob was put on notice that his account could be shut down if he has "subsequent violations.
So what did he do that was so objectionable?
He told the truth about the mosque murders in New Zealand and the reaction of the government of Jacinda Adern.
From The Federalist:
When asked what he was hoping people would get from the post, MADEbyJIMBOB said: “The purpose of the meme was explore the perhaps unhealthy relationship between terror, trauma and reactionary legislation. The definition of terrorism is the use of violence or threat with political motivation, the inquiry is, is terrorism being exploited for political action and where is the line between responding to terrorism and rewarding violent behavior with legislation.”
This is a valid question, but one Instagram apparently thinks isn’t worth entertaining on their platform. Whether it be due solely to the mention of terrorism or some perhaps more nefarious politically based antagonism, it’s hard to say why Instagram found this so unacceptable. And there’s no appeal process, so MADEbyJIMBOB might never know.
And the meme:

If you've read any of the killer's off-the-wall manifesto - and I have - you know this was his intent.
As Morgan Freeman would say:
Social space is just increasingly anti-free speech and anti-gun and anti-freedom in general more and more.
