This case is CRAZY!
Egypt has imprisoned 6 young Christian men for 2 weeks & counting because they made a TikTok simply mimicking a scene from a popular Egyptian comedy movie.
Outrageous.
But it's also part of a pattern of censorship against Christians 👇 @ADFIntl @ADFLegal

The purpose of documents like this is create a rhetorical motte-and-bailey in order to tar and scapegoat a wide swathe of normal conservative Christians as "extreme" through insinuation while retreating to plausible deniability when called on it.
EXCLUSIVE: Leaked Home Office counter-terrorism documents link “nostalgia for traditionalism” and fears over immigration, liberalism and multiculturalism to “Christian extremism”.
Officials propose working with churches to promote “theological resilience” against the use of Christian teachings to justify hatred or violence.
I obtained dozens of pages from RICU’s report on “Christian extremism”. Among the findings:
• Images of happy families in wartime, peaceful countryside and classical statues are described as a “hook” towards an extremist worldview.
• Tommy Robinson’s rallies and a Christmas carol concert come under scrutiny, alongside Christian fitness groups.
• “Bob from Speakers’ Corner” features, despite RICU identifying no extremist content from him.
Yet the report acknowledges that the threat of violence from Christian extremists remains “low”.
Jeremiah Igunnubole, UK legal counsel for ADF, says the report “suggests an institutional anti-Christian bias has taken hold in the Home Office”.

13-year-old Maria Shahbaz is still trapped in the custody of her 30-year-old abductor.
Every day she remains with him is another day she is subjected to further abuse and exploitation.
The court and authorities must act to ensure that Maria's case is properly reviewed and that she is returned safely to her family.

Censorship in Brazil is relentless.
A court already unanimously cleared Isadora of all charges, and ruled that stating personal opinions is not grounds for criminal charges of "transphobia".
Yet, Federal Prosecutors are still attempting to criminalise her free speech.
Federal Prosecutors in Brazil have renewed their efforts to jail a young woman for online "transphobia."
Isadora Borges, a veterinary student, was charged with "social racism" after two of her X posts were reported to police by a transgender politician.

This is absolutely outrageous
A carol concert is not extremist.

‼️ ARRESTED FOR A TIKTOK ‼️
Egypt has detained six young Christian men on charges of "exploiting" and "insulting" the Islamic religion.
The men posted a video with audio from a popular comedy film, which depicts a scene of prisoners who are unfamiliar with the Quranic prayers.
After the video amassed comments inciting violence against the men, local police arrested them.
We urge the authorities to release these six young Christians and drop any investigations against them immediately.

🇧🇷 BREAKING: Brazil is attempting to reopen a case against Isadora Borges, a veterinary student who previously faced up to 10 YEARS in prison for 'transphobia'.
Her only "crime" was a social media post, stating what we all know to be true: Men cannot become women.
By seeking to reopen this case, Brazil is showing once again that it will go to great lengths to silence speech it doesn’t like.
If the court agrees to reopen the case, Isadora will once again face trial, with a potential 10-year prison sentence for nothing more than stating biological facts.

“This is tragically common in Egypt, where Christians face threats, discrimination, and ultimately imprisonment for speech that is only seen as problematic because they are not part of the majority religion.
These young men did nothing but share a lighthearted video with a voiceover from a popular and uncontroversial film, as many others on the platform have done. There is no reason to charge or imprison them." — Kelsey Zorzi, Senior Counsel and Vice President of International Advocacy at Alliance Defending Freedom

“It is terrifying to know that my case could reopen and that I may once again face time in prison, but it is important to me that I always speak the truth. Too many Brazilians have been criminalised or bullied into silence out of fear they will be punished for ‘transphobia’.
When we say men cannot become women, we are not spreading hate or targeting anyone; we are stating a biological fact. I hope the court will uphold its previous decision and that my case will go on to stand for our right to speak freely.”

⚖️ 🏳️⚧️ MPF recorre para tentar reabrir o processo contra a estudante de veterinária Isadora Borges, acusada de “transfobia” por post de 2020 em que dizia que “mulheres trans não são mulheres”; o TRF-5 encerrou o caso em março de 2026, por entender que as postagens não configuravam crime, mas o recurso busca levar a questão ao STJ.

🚨 CASE UPDATE: Brazil is going after Isadora Borges AGAIN for so-called "transphobia".
State prosecution has petitioned the court to reopen the case against her. If successful, Isadora will face further trial and a potential 10 YEARS in prison — for nothing more than stating biological facts in a social media post.
This is Isadora Borges, a veterinary student in Brazil.
She is facing up to 10 YEARS in prison.
The reason?
She stated on social media that men cannot become women.
Censorship in Brazil is spreading at an alarming rate.
We are supporting Isadora's case.
🇧🇷 No one should fear prison time for peacefully expressing their beliefs.

"It was a very unscientific and harmful report."
@HJARuissen condemns the Forbidden Colours "Hate Review" — a report riddled with lies and inaccuracies about hundreds of Christian organisations.
He rightly asks: Why is the EU funding groups who vilify certain viewpoints simply because they are Christian?
@EP_President Roberta Metsola promises to look into the funding, and we urge Parliament to follow through.
