I sat down with Chaya Raichik of LibsofTikTok to talk about Nex's death, her role in Oklahoma politics, her beliefs on gender, the great replacement theory, sex education, her false accusations against the Uvalde shooter, why she and Seth Dillon cut ties and more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XL-40gDBRx0&t=2359s

Read my latest story on her impact in Oklahoma: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/02/24/libs-tiktok-oklahoma-nonbinary-teen-death/

Oh my fucking God. The Washington Post is platforming a terrorist. They are spreading racist and antisemitic hate, and they're going to get innnocent people hurt and killed.

It is immoral for anyone to maintain a paid subscription to the Washington Post. If you have one, please cancel it immediately. It's easy. Here's how: https://helpcenter.washingtonpost.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000177571-How-to-cancel-your-digital-only-subscription

I guess that was supposed to be a joke, maybe?

Maybe it makes her look like an ass.

Don't be like the Republicans calling to ban books they've never read.

@jonhendry

It's worthwhile to report about violent extremists like Chaya Raichik, but it's not okay to give them a platform.

I'm sure I would watch the video and think she looks like an ass, but she's not doing it to reach me. She's recruiting more extremists.

@barney

I don't think it was a scheduled interview with a set agenda, but rather more of an unexpected surprise interview.

Oops got busy yesterday but read my story on what life has been like for LGBTQ people in Oklahoma as Libs of TikTok has amassed more political power in the state. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/02/24/libs-tiktok-oklahoma-nonbinary-teen-death/

Is one of the ways that life has changed in Oklahoma that they’re being murdered at the suggestion of the fascist you sat down with?

There is no reason to platform that POS.

@taylorlorenz
Simple questions have surprisingly simple answers.
"How Libs of TikTok became a powerful presence in Oklahoma schools"?
Really?
Because racists support racism and bigots love bigotry.
That's how.

Taylor_Lorenz_Sucks,

@taylorlorenz LibsOfTiktok only managed to influence Oklahoma after YOUR interview helped LibsOfTiktok become a houshold name. Also stop promoting X and other right-wing apps.

@taylorlorenz Thanks I hate it.
I just canceled my subscription. Good job Taylor platforming a terrorist!

I just replaced my digital subscription with a @404mediaco subscription. If, like me, you think the mainstream media should have figured out by now that platforming terrorists is a bad idea, I encourage you to join me in supporting sustainable independent media.

@taylorlorenz why not interview someone at TikTok, as to why they allow this hate monger a platform, which she uses to get trans kids killed?

Why give her yet another platform?

tizmic,

@taylorlorenz Not sure how to say that, but if someone wants to talk about "the great replacement theory" sounds like a major red flag. :yikes:

I'm curious what you're objecting to in the reporting.

I read though the entire article and it is not favorable to Chaya Raichik or LibsOfTikTok in anyway that I could see.
Explicitly quoting domeone that Chaya makes posts to incite her followers and then deletes them afterwards is good reporting to me.
Quote is in next post.
1/2

@roytoo @taylorlorenz I'm objecting to the platforming, this really isn't going to change anyone's mind.

Okanogen,
@Okanogen@mastodon.social avatar

@taylorlorenz
How can a super hot chick also be a disgustingly rabid bigot, and racist fascist xenophobe is not a topic explored enough in our current media.
And isn't that a bit sexist?

@taylorlorenz Just deleted a comment from a couple of days ago on your interview. You’ve done a good job of exposing her to people who didn’t know who she was. Apologies.

@taylorlorenz I worry we spend too much time talking to & trying to understand people like this & not nearly enough time talking to, trying to understand, & giving voice to the people they hurt.

@taylorlorenz minor fact check: Sean Cummings is not on the Oklahoma City council

Cummings is a city councilor of The Village, a small, suburban municipality located entirely inside of Oklahoma City

@taylorlorenz
Do not want.
Those who know what a racist bigot sounds like know already. We have all known for decades.
Those who do not know, have no desire or need to know.
Did people fall suddenly to Earth from some far off planet?

Why would you interview someone about Nex after they participated in organizing the murder of Nex
