16 year old Nex Benedict was a gender non conforming sophomore at their high school in Oklahoma. This month they went to use the bathroom and were attacked by three upper classmen girls resulting in Nex having head trauma. The following day Nex died. This chid did not have to die, but thanks to some irresponsible adults that is exactly what happened.
Oklahoma has been notorious for their anti LGBTQ laws, especially anti trans. Add an anti LGBTQ ultra conservative troll from Tik Tok to the mix and something tragic was bound to happen. This episode also meet Chaya Raichik, the troll behind the Tik Tok account LibsofTikTok which is a social media account that is vile against the LGBTQ community, epsecially trans folk.
An update on Nex's case was provided with permission by V from Under the desk news, a Tik Tok Influencer.
