Libs of Tiktok is a far-right, anti-LGBTQ, conspiracy theory account run by Chaya Raichik, a former real estate agent that reposts posts and videos by liberals, leftists, activists, and LGBTQ people with mocking, derogatory, and demeaning commentary.
The person behind the account is Chaya Raichik, and she herself says she runs the account full-time and lives in Los Angeles, California.
As of December, the account has 1.5 Million+ followers on Twitter and has become influential among conservatives and the political right (especially those in the United States).
The account promotes harassment against teachers, medical providers, and children’s hospitals, and spreads disinformation against marginalized groups.
History

Trivia
