And to think: The post in question wasn’t even political.
Last night, Sarah Palin accused Instagram of taking down a picture of her son Trig “acting like a normal kid.” (For those who don’t know, he has Down syndrome.)

CENSORSHIP is to sharing opinions as LYNCHING is to justice! Unbelievable. Instagram took down a post of my son Trig acting like a normal kid ~ which I am so proud he can do. My heart soars when Trig proves he’s a “normal” kid❣️I can’t even explain how it tickles our whole family. But the intolerant powers-that-be, sitting in a seat of judgement, think not? The nauseating, downright evil hypocrisy from their parent company, Facebook, continues ~ but only aimed at commonsense conservatives? When Obama was POTUS, he MOCKED children with Down Syndrome on late night tv, and nary a word of outrage from these same folks. But they’ll censor my post of my most favorite person in the world…
Inexplicable.
Unbelievable.
And scary.
Facebook continues to censor traffic flow to my website, too.
Ummm, Zuckerberg, you were in Alaska recently.. did you not learn a thing about Mama Grizzlies when you visited?
I didn’t see the post in question, but I’m assuming it was sweet and harmless. At least, judging by the OTHER posts of her son.
Meanwhile, the Kardashians post photos of their greasy a$$es, and Insta is totes cool with that.
Unreal.
