Ronnie Radke Banned on TikTok

On July 25, Radke revealed on Twitter that his TikTok account was banned after voicing his opinions on trans issues and biological women's rights. He called out the company for having the "audacity to try and silence or censor the reality."

He soon posted a follow-up tweet featuring a photo of Dylan Mulvaney, a trans influencer, holding a box of tampons.

"The same people that call me a womanizer, abuser, and bigot are the same people that support the ideology that trans can have periods and support tampon companies making trans the spokesperson," he said. "It's extremely offensive to all women, to mock their biology. stop pretending this is okay."

Hours later, he dropped another hard-hitting tirade and revealed he officially changed the lyric of one of his songs, updating "I feel like a lady that is pregnant with a baby" to "I feel like a birthing person that is pregnant with a person who's been birthed."

The singer was officially banned on TikTok on July 29, leading him to ask his followers to check whether his Twitter page remains active. After his continuous posts, the Falling in Reverse singer exclaimed how freedom of speech is dead as websites control what people should say.
