Facebook Bans Popular Right Wing Account Libs of TikTok For Violating ‘Community Standards’
The right-wing social media account Libs of TikTok was suspended from Facebook on Saturday evening for reportedly violating the platform’s community standards.
“The page Libs of TikTok has been disabled for going against our Community Standards,” Facebook said in an email to the owner of the account, Chaya Raichik, according to a screenshot she posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“You cannot visit the Page and you won’t be able to add new people to work on the Page,” the email concluded.

The account, which was launched in April 2020, is known for posting anti-LGBTQ content and opposing progressive activism. Libs of TikTok has amassed a large following on social media with over 2.7 million followers on X and millions more on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook.
Raichik has become a star in conservative media and rubbed elbows with leading Republican figures, including former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Before Elon Musk purchased X last year, the account had been suspended by the company several times for alleged hateful conduct. Moreover, Facebook also banned Libs of TikTok last year after threats were made to employee’s at the Boston Children’s Hospital after Raichik made a post claiming they were giving hysterectomies to minors.
It is unclear how long the ban on the account will last as it did not clarify if it was a permanent or temporary suspension.
