Re: Urgent: This hate rhetoric resulted in bomb threats to schools. Stop this

Friend, what happened to [Nex Benedict](, a 16 year old high school student in Oklahoma, is connected to the rising tide of anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and discriminatory state laws. [Sign the petition: Stop giving Libs of TikTok a platform.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Libs of TikTok, an extremist social media channel run by Chaya Raichik, plays a leading role in the spread of anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and has become a [powerful player both in Oklahoma]( and around the country. Raichik is provided platforms for hate by social media companies, and now even has an advisory board [position]( in the same state where Nex was assaulted. Libs of TikTok’s anti-trans rhetoric has led to [dozens of bomb threats](. Their posts include [false information]( that Raichik knows and admits is, in fact, false. And yet, Raichik is still permitted to espouse her hate. Stop this. Raichik is not only wrong, gross, bigoted, and hateful, she’s inciting bomb threats and stoking language that leads to assaults on children. Stop giving Libs of TikTok a platform for hate! [Sign the petition: Libs of TikTok is dangerous. Do not give Chaya Raichik a platform for hate.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Thanks for all you do, Erin Tulley, Daily Kos P.S. Below is an email we sent out earlier demanding Raichik’s Libs of TikTok account not be given platforms for hate: --------------------------------------------------------------- Friend, [sign the petition: Stop giving Libs of TikTok a platform.]( [SIGN THE PETITION]( Libs of TikTok, an extremist social media group run by Chaya Raichik, espouses [hateful, dangerous threats and disinformation]( that have disturbingly resulted in bomb threats and even deaths. Yet, they continue to be allowed platforms for their hate rhetoric. Libs of TikTok’s posts target marginalized groups, specifically the LGBTQ+ community, often followed with a tidal wave of violent threats from Raichik’s followers. Raichik’s hoax-filled posts about schools, children’s hospitals, teachers, and doctors have resulted in [21 bomb threats](. Enough. Stop giving Raichik a platform–no more social media, no more appointed positions, no more opportunities to continually espouse hate! [Sign the petition: Libs of TikTok is dangerous.
