Former real estate agent Chaya Raichik who owns the Twitter account Libs of TikTok appeared on Tucker Carlson Today Monday accusing all LGBT folks as being a part of a cult of “evil people.”
Raichik is a far-right, anti-LGBT agitator who reposts content created by liberals, leftists, and LGBT people on TikTok and on other social media platforms with hostile, mocking, or derogatory commentary. Appropos of nothing Raichik told Carlson:
“The LGBTQ community has become this cult… It’s extremely poisonous… They’re just evil people, and they’re out to groom kids. They’re recruiting.”

Raichik has over 1.5 million followers and has become influential among American conservatives and the political right.
Raichik runs the account by herself full-time and lives in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Blade recently reported :
FOX News has begun to publish anti-LGBTQ articles that use TikTok videos in place of meaningful reporting, mimicking a strategy popularized by the virulently anti-LGBTQ Twitter account Libs of TikTok. And plays “a major role in spreading anti–LGBTQ rhetoric, and the network has used Libs of TikTok as a sort of wire service for anti-LGBTQ clickbait. The account — run by Chaya Raichik — often attacks teachers, politicians, and members of the LGBTQ community by sharing their content in a context primed for a moral panic. As violence toward LGBTQ people has increased, including in the recent Colorado Springs Club Q shooting, Libs of TikTok has continued targeting schools, teachers, and events.”
Carlson has been an ardent backer of Raichik and back in April claimed she was the victim of an intimidation campaign against ‘Libs of TikTok’
