To a specific audience that they have cultivated, though. And almost universally with a highly specific framing. What they are doing is finding posts from queer children, teachers, or parents, adding a line that frames it as inherently pedophilic or something, and then posting it to their extremely large follower base of explicitly bigoted people that would not probably have been aware of the post otherwise. Those people are obviously going to get really angry at the people the original posts were from and a portion of them will do something about it, you're essentially vastly increasing the size of the audience that's aware of their posts and the proportion of that audience that is hostile. It's essentially the online equivalent of having a big mob behind you that's really angry about some group of people existing, and happening to see one of that group and pointing at them, and then the mob goes after them. Sure, that person was existing out in the open for anyone to see before you pointed at them, but you are explicitly directing a very specific group of people to be aware of them, within a very specific context and framing that wouldn't have been added to that person otherwise, and that has consequences. Additionally, they will often choose clips from things that are pulled completely out of context. Reposting content that was already online is not necessarily an inherently neutral behavior, because you are always reposting it to somewhere; in this case, taking a post from a person and boosting and broadcasting it to a huge group of people that hate that person.

To be more pointed than logicprog, Raichik just lies a lot. Example from the article: Libs of TikTok’s post said it happened “in front of children.” Anthony said no children were present.

Can you provide some examples of this? "Pedophilic or something" is pretty open-ended.

It's actually like well-known internet etiquette in many places that if you're going to share a post from a person you vehemently disagree with to a different Community or fan base or audience or whatever that also disagrees with them, that you block out their username and any other identifying info for precisely this reason, to prevent them from getting harassed. Chaya Raichik doesn't respect that.

From the article:
>Raichik posted that the school offers a “pornographic” book in its library that “teaches kids about gay sex.”

I read the article. Claiming thst something is inappropriate is not the same as claiming it's pedophilic.

Interesting that you immediately just assumed it's Raichik lying rather than Anthony, who is a politician after all.
