Trivia
Being a person who loves to do everything herself, Chaya runs all of her accounts across all social media platforms. Many people (especially within conservative circles) are very familiar with “Libs of TikTok” which usually reposts content from left-wing proponents often to poke fun at or offer a critique of the said content.
It may come as a shock to many people that Chaya started as a real estate agent and only transitioned into social media in late 2020. She created an X account in November 2020, adopting a series of different handles before finally settling on the now-famous, “@LibsofTikTok handle. The account has since grown to global proportions which has resulted in Chaya being interviewed and featured by various conservative commentators and news outlets including Tucker Carlson, Fox News, AOC, and many others.
However, it hasn’t been a bed of roses for Chaya since she started Libs of TikTok. On the contrary, she has faced severe backlash from several progressive figures who usually deem her opinions as hateful, spreading misinformation and false claims, (heck, even her Wikipedia is filled with this kind of talk). In my opinion, depending on whether you are conservative or progressive, Chaya is either a hero, advocating for conservatism, or a villain, spreading hate and misinformation, I’ll let you decide that for yourself.
Something to note is that Raichik started Libs of TikTok anonymously until her identity was revealed in April 2022 by Washington Post journalist, Taylor Lorenz and software developer Travis Brown.
