Controversial Zimbabwean anti-feminist social media influencer Shadaya Tawona Knight is currently trending on social media after he was perceived as a threat by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
Shadaya, renowned for his no-holds-barred posts, was reportedly used as an example during a presentation to the United States Homeland Security.
The revelation surfaced when a social media user, known only as @bx_in_x, shared a video allegedly from a presentation to the US Department of Homeland Security.
The video discussed a proposed plan to introduce a native tool on Twitter aimed at concealing posts from manosphere accounts. In her post tagging Shadaya, she wrote;
“This clip is from a presentation to US Dept. of Homeland Security regarding a plan to implement a native tool on Twitter to hide tweets from manosphere accounts and divert users to curated countermessaging accounts. They used @Shadaya_Knight as an example.”

In response, Shadaya tagged Elon Musk, the owner of X, and asserted the need for an explanation regarding why his posts about the manosphere are now perceived as terror threats by the US Homeland Security.
“At @elonmusk needs to explain why we’re now being viewed as terror threats by the US Homeland Security for simply posting about the manosphere. I guess this explains why some of my followers say they don’t get to see my tweets unless they search for my name. Anyways isn’t America the land of democracy, what happened to free speech? 😂,” he wrote.
He went on to state the things claims he has been teaching his followers, which he terms as his ‘crimes’:
“My crimes:
– teaching men to know their value and asserting it
– reminding society that men built this so called modern civilization and they continue to be it’s backbone
– raising men’s issues
– promoting family values being anti divorce, single motherhood and abortion
– promoting morality and values
– being anti degenerate behavior e.g pedophilia, men claiming to be women and vice versa
– advocating for world peace
Really makes you wonder what kind of a society we’re living in
Learn OR perish!!!”
