Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene accused tech companies of curbing her freedom of speech because of her political views.
The Georgia congresswoman added that media outlets portrayed conservatives like her as "Nazis"—a remark that follows another controversy about the language she uses to comment on COVID vaccinations, which has been denounced by Jewish groups as antisemitic.
Greene told Newsmax on Wednesday that she had been suspended from Twitter three times since she had become a member of Congress in January. The way social media companies behave is important, she said, because "as Americans…we are used to…saying our opinions, our thoughts and our feelings."
However, she added that "in big tech and the social media sphere," she and other conservatives "are treated very differently."
She pointed to former President Donald Trump, who was kicked off his social media accounts in the wake of the U.S. Capitol riots in January.
"Not only are we banned or suspended or completely kicked off and never allowed back on for speaking our political beliefs and speaking our minds, but we are treated as if we're second-class citizens for holding these opinions," Greene said.
"For the past four to five years we have heard the media slander us as Nazis, fascists, deplorables, Neanderthals and all kinds of nasty names," she added. Facebook and Twitter both declined to comment when contacted by Newsweek. ..
