Meanwhile LibsOfTikTok is run by the domestic terrorist Chaya Raichik. She is a hateful bigot who should be executed by the US government.
There are news articles from legitimate sources regarding the thefts. Y'all are taking the chuds' bait on this one, it's best not to engage with this at all.
Not engaging with it would also mean not to incriminate the victim, especially not if the stories they're incriminated with feed into transphobic narratives that are a central part of the campaign. Situations like this aren't the time to dunk on people targeted by a nazi mob, not even if you have substantial criticism.
I'm not incriminating anyone, the information is already out there. By defending this person, you are setting yourself up to lose a moral battle that you could never win, which is exactly what these libs of tiktok type people want when they do this.
Read any biography about a black athlete that broke color barriers in the 40s and 50s. Not only did they have to be better at their jobs than 90% of their white peers to even get a shot, they also had to be near perfect human beings to prevent exactly the scenario we see playing out right now. It wasn't right then and it isn't right now, but that's reality. If you're not willing to form a militia and put these reactionaries up against a wall, then these are the parameters in which we have to exist. Frankly, I'd prefer the wall route, but not enough people want to do that or think it's possible, so here we are.
Like it or not, this person was representing a lot of marginalized folks when they took that job and they really fucked things up for a lot of people by stealing shit they had the resources to buy in the first place. It sucks that their identity is being made the focus by bad actors, but we know these are our enemy's tactics and we should act accordingly.
