Donald Trump Jr. faced backlash on Tuesday after he agreed with the Taliban's views on freedom of speech.

In a message on Twitter, Trump shared a video of a Taliban spokesperson who criticized U.S. social media companies when he was asked about freedom of speech in Afghanistan.

"This question should be asked to those people who are claiming to be promoters of freedom of speech who do not allow publication of information," the spokesperson said. "I can ask [the] Facebook company."

Trump added: "LOL… Also not wrong."

The spokesperson's remarks echoed talking points that have been used by Republicans in recent months.

Commenters accused the former president's son of "openly supporting the Taliban"

"Of course you'd agree with the Taliban. Right on brand for you," one person wrote.

LOL… Also not wrong. https://t.co/nMDM9k8fwL

Yep an ex presidents son with political aspirations openly supporting Taliban. Not surprising since his daddy is the one who freed this particular Taliban guy

Free speech is not free speech when it oppresses others, or infringes on someone else’s right to free speech.

The taliban doesn’t practice it, and neither do repugnanicans.

Also businesses don’t have to lol. You agreed to their terms when you signed up, that’s legally binding

Of course you’d agree with the taliban. Right on brand for you.

Actually he...and you...are 100% wrong. You would Actually have to have read something about America's Founding to know. Freedom of Speech, cemented in the 1st Amendment, refers ONLY to Government's limits. Like the Taliban. Last time we looked, Facebook is not a Government

Donny is a big fan of the Taliban. Traitor. As usual.

The folks who love to talk about "America First" sure seem enamored with people who have avowed their hatred of America.

Why do you think that is, Junior?

That moment when you think you are promoting freedom as you support the Taliban.

Siding with Taliban...interesting. Both the Taliban and the extreme right get often banned from social media. Shocker!
