64% Informative
TikTok creator @lizabookrecs had a question: When did BookTok become political? It was in the hours after Donald Trump had won the election for US president.
People started unfollowing fellow BookTokkers whose views didn't align with their own.
Some creators posted that they were beginning to follow red listed creators as a show of support.
Author Kaleigh Michele posted a TikTok saying she’d been “red listed” based on assumptions that she was a Trump supporter.
In addition to the obligatory #fyp, the post had three hashtags: # redlist, #booktok, #trump.
