Babylon Bee Editor-in-Chief Kyle Mann recently sat down with a Hillsdale College student (before Twitter locked his accounts) to discuss the power of comedy, the dangers of a society becoming too scared to laugh, and wondering if he's written his last joke.
Last week Twitter locked the account of The Babylon Bee after posting an article naming transgender Biden administration official Rachel Levine "Man of the Year." Twitter later locked Kyle Mann's account for a follow-up tweet. Yesterday, Twitter locked the account of Adam Ford, CEO of The Babylon Bee's other site called "Not the Bee" for what it called "hateful conduct."

Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.
