    The Spin

    Republican narrative

    The radical left and its allies in the mainstream media have no justification for unethically targeting the private owner of a social media account that simply re-posts videos where deranged liberals own themselves on social media. Shouldn't the left be proud of the perspectives shared by Libs of TikTok anyway?

    Democratic narrative

    Lorenz abided by journalistic standards in exposing the anonymous creator of a social media account that's central to the right-wing media ecosystem. The Libs of TikTok promotes escalating attacks against gay and trans peoples across the US. No topic could be more ethical or timely for a journalist on Lorenz's beat to cover.
