Chaya Raichik, founder of the influential social media platform Libs of TikTok, expresses her pride in being despised by critics while envisioning the day her platforms will become obsolete due to the eradication of gender ideology.
Chaya Raichik, the mastermind behind the renowned Libs of TikTok social media empire, relishes in the disdain directed toward her by detractors and aspires to dismantle her platforms once "gender ideology is eradicated from our society." With over 3.1 million loyal followers on Twitter alone, Libs of TikTok has gained significant traction across various social media platforms.
Raichik has ascended to prominence as one of the most influential conservative voices on social media, disseminating far-left content to illuminate what she perceives as extreme liberal ideologies, particularly those related to LGBTQ advocacy and education. Along the way, she has faced relentless criticism from established news outlets and has been labeled transphobic by myriad online critics.

"The people who incessantly attack me, hurl insults, and pen vindictive articles are proponents of genital mutilation of children, advocates for pornography in schools, and supporters of grown men clad in scant attire gyrating before youngsters," Raichik asserted to Fox News Digital.
"I would be genuinely concerned if they approved of me," she added emphatically. "Their animosity validates my mission."

Raichik admits that politics never held much interest for her, and her foray into social media occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic when she found herself with ample time on her hands. Exploring TikTok, she encountered a plethora of liberal users who provided endless entertainment.
"I stumbled upon this entire subset of groomers, activist educators, healthcare professionals, and mental health practitioners zealously promoting gender ideology and the so-called gender-affirming care," Raichik recalled.

"Simultaneously, there was a surge of anti-American and anti-White sentiments. I felt an obligation to inform the public about these disturbing trends," she explained. "As I began sharing these videos, the account went viral."
Regarding the moniker @LibsofTikTok, Raichik reveals it was a spur-of-the-moment decision.
"I observed these videos featuring liberals, or 'libs,' and I was primarily posting content from TikTok at the time. Hence, the name just came to me spontaneously," she stated.
While the platform initially focused on repurposing TikTok content, Raichik now utilizes it to expose a wider array of extreme left-wing ideologies.
Raichik's journey has been marred by death threats, Twitter's Community Notes, platform suspensions, and a notorious doxxing incident perpetrated by Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz. Acknowledging that she would have preferred anonymity, she has embraced her public persona to "perpetuate the mission."
"Our primary objective is to combat the sexualization of children and expose the radical left. As a public figure, I am now better equipped to achieve these goals," she declared.
Raichik now dedicates herself full-time to content creation on social media and Substack, supported by a small yet exceptional team. Her influence has extended to her appointment to the Oklahoma State Department of Education's Library Media Advisory Committee (LMAC).
"We vigilantly search for any evidence of grooming, predatory behavior, hypocrisy, or falsehoods perpetrated by the Left," she said.
Raichik firmly believes in the critical role social media plays in combating far-left ideologies. She emphasizes that the issues she has brought to light remained concealed for decades until independent journalists utilized platforms like Twitter to shed light on them.
Despite the immense following she has garnered, Raichik aspires to render herself "irrelevant" in the future.
"When gender ideology is purged from our society, my content will become obsolete, and I will gladly cease operations," Raichik proclaimed.
"However, I do not anticipate this to occur anytime soon because the Left has lost all sense of reason," she added. "I embarked on this journey because it was necessary, and when that necessity is no longer present, I will happily step back."
