Professor’s op-ed accuses Libs of TikTok of ‘generating anti-LGBTQ hate’
A recent op-ed claims that the Twitter account Libs of TikTok is “a hate account” for its portrayal of the LGBTQ community.
Libs of TikTok curates content from left-leaning users to critically expose their ideas, including posts about pronouns, defunding the police, and children’s books on gender identity.
Associate Professor of Sociolology Roderick Graham of Old Dominion University wrote the Newsweek op-ed, “LibsofTikTok’s Interviews Prove She’s Not Unbiased. She’s Generating Anti-LGBTQ Hate.”
Brooklyn real estate agent Chaya Raichik, Libs of TikTok’s owner, operated the account anonymously until The Washington Post revealed her name in April 2022, according to the New York Post.
Raichik credits her videos, the New York Post reported, with the firing of “a dozen teachers,” canceling drag shows, and inspiring Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill, which “prohibit[s] classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity” from kindergarten to the third grade.
“Though the videos are already in the public domain, Raichik makes curatorial decisions in what to amplify to construct a harmful narrative about queer people—namely, that a cabal of queer activists and educators are sexualizing young people and indoctrinating them into a queer ideology,” Graham wrote in his op-ed.
“Raichick [sic] makes decisions about what to repost and—even more importantly—how to frame those reposted videos to construct that narrative.”

By just putting their statements out there, which the people have placed into the public arena, aren’t the speakers the ones who are generating any responses, including bad ones?
“Raichik makes curatorial decisions in what to amplify to construct a harmful narrative about queer people”
Awwwwww!
The Cancel Crowd is all about “Look at the one embarrassing posting So-and-so made 20 years ago on social media, when he was 8.” But pointing out what one of their members said three days ago when they are 28 and working for a school system is “harmful.”
Makes perfect sense.
Many leftists actually do hate anyone they disagree with. I’ve seen it time and time again. It is impossible to discuss the issues with them without them devolving into red faced, spittle ejecting, incoherence.
They naturally assume everyone else is like them (projection), therefore anyone who disagrees with them *must* hate them as much as they hate those with whom they disagree.
Same reason they’re anti-gun. They know full well that they aren’t stable and mature enough to be trusted to have deadly weapons within their reach at all times – it wouldn’t take much to set them off enough for them to want to use those weapons against the people they hate; this failing is projected onto everyone (I’m normal right? so if I’m normal and I feel this way then everyone else must feel this way as well) and so, by extension, they determine that everyone is a rage filled potential mass killer and cannot be trusted with weapons.
Free promotion and extended reach for others’ political, polemical posts is bad, wrong, and evil?
Harmful, or truthful?
And isn’t this Prof. implying that libs are “LGBTQ”? Otherwise the Libs of TikTok name is inaccurate.
Well, LOTT does focus pretty much exclusively on the gender hustlers, as opposed to, say, the gun-banners or the race hustlers.
Just another troublemaker. V
Ms Raichik is. a brave and courageous woman who is telling the truth about the intentions of the LGBT movement namely the indoctrination of school children into their lifestyle at the youngest age possible
Nobody does a better job of ‘Generating Anti-LGBTQ Hate’ than militant LGBTQWERTY’s trying to push their freak show garbage on our children
