    What a confusing headline. I don’t think most reasonable people would know or assume that ‘Libs of Tiktok’ is a conservative hate group.

      It’s one of those iykyk things. I detest TikTok and refuse to use it (and short form brainrot video bullshit in general), but I’ve been aware of it as a hard-right channel/user/whatever for a while now.

        I don’t know any leftists that refer to themselves as liberal at all, so anyone who does accept the label I wouldn’t know what they call themselves.
