At least eleven schools or school districts that were targeted by the account “Libs of TikTok” over anti-LGBTQ grooming conspiracies last month received bomb threats just days later.

    She’s a terrorist and knows it. I hope she slips and the feds charge her for inciting violence.

    Libs of TikTok is the same group of malcontents who doxxed and swatted people from the KiwiFarms servers and 4chan before that. They’re terrorists and they should be dealt swift and violent justice.

    They level of mental gymnastics that someone sent a passive aggressive handwritten note about how “free speech” means a bus driver can’t have stickers because some people’s religion doesn’t like what they say…

    These idiots really have such low levels of empathy, they dont understand rights apply to anyone else.

    Can we just talk for a moment about how the elementary school in Salem is called Witchcraft Heights? That’s fucking rad.

    I think someone needs to get this group of wing nuts taken down.

    Anytime a group like this on social media pops up; people should immediately start reporting them for “Encouraging or Inciting Violence” immediately after anyone starts hearing about such a group being the cause of Doxxing, Swatting or Bomb Threats in general.

    If you’re a libertarian yourself you should shun extremist behavior. Violence does not help your cause.

      As much as I understand the sentiment behind ignoring bomb threats as they’re often fictitious, I feel that it might be awkward for the administration to explain how 200 kids died in a bombing they knew about when they didn’t inform anyone inside the building.

          Technically only Cheney had all the info.

          Lil Bush was always just a puppet for his dad’s buddies. So when he took office he let Cheney set it up so that each intelligence agency had to send everything thru him before telling another agency or even the president.

          Either Cheney let it happen because he wanted war, or he just couldn’t handle all the info, but was too much of a control freak to get help.

            There is much to criticize about the Bush presidency, but I’m willing to accept that incompetence is a much more likely explanation than malice in this instance.

              Then you don’t know much about Cheney…

              In my opinion he 100% wanted war, it’s just almost impossible to prove he knowingly let it happen. Which a cynic would say is the entire reason he had that system set up.

      Given how many conservative shooters there are, it won’t be long until there are conservative bombers.

          A lot of people weren’t alive or were too young to remember the militia movement of the 90s. McVeigh and Nichols spent a lot of time perfecting their bomb and had lots of associates who felt the same way they did.

          They’re not all dumbfuck yokels. Some are very motivated to inflict ad much harm as they can and they haven’t gone away.

            Yeah people seem to not understand several things about that. Firstly everything you’ve mentioned, but also if you’ve ever been around dumbfuck yokels you know they make the hell out of an IED. “So and so’s brother learned how to do this in Iraq” is absolutely the preface to a terrifying display in decent portions of the country. Additionally it isn’t hard to make a bomb, it’s hard to make a bomb you can detonate and survive doing so, which given by the shooter suicide rate isn’t a concern for these sorts. And I assure you methed up neonazis have been passing around bomb recipes like they’re cookie recipes for decades. And terrorist organizations like Al qaeda have attempted to feed instructions on this to Americans.

            If you can get away with making meth you can probably succeed at making a bomb, the difference is once you detonate one you’re going to be caught and spend the rest of your life in a solitary confinement cell and everyone who helped you is going to prison for a long time.

        A bomb requires the faintest modicum of planning and know-how. You can walk down the street and buy a gun same-day depending on your state.
