Students for Life President Kristan Hawkins said on the Todd Starnes Radio Show that the Students for Life TikTok account was shut down after videos of her were posted answering pro-choice questions.
Kristan explained on the show that Students for Life used to just put their content on instagram, but moved to Tik Tok as well to reach the younger generation.
“The reason for putting content on TikTok is we want to reach those who are being targeted by the abortion industry: high schoolers and middle schoolers,” Kristan said on the Todd Starnes Radio Show.
Kristan then went on to say that as a parent she would not want her own kids on TikTok, but there are a lot of kids on there and they have to reach that age group.
Host Todd Starnes then went on to explain how there is a double standard when it comes to censorship with the right and the left on social media.
“If people want to put raunchy, nasty stuff (on TikTok), that’s their business,” said Host Starnes. “I don’t have to watch it. I don’t have to support it. I don’t have to endorse it. But I’m not going out there and actively having people banned from TikTok or Twitter. But on the other side of the equation, there are people out there trying to shut down conservatives.”
Despite being censored, Kristan Hawkins and Students for Life are still motivated to educate young people about the horrors of abortion and bringing people to the pro-life side.
“I’m upset that TikTok would do something so vile as taking down an account with basic science,” said Hawkins. “But we’re not going to stop. And it’s not going to stop our mission. It is for life of reaching the those who are most targeted by the abortion industry with the truth.”
