Following the recent election, racist text messages targeting Hispanic and LGBTQ individuals have surged, with claims of deportation or re-education camp notifications. The FBI is investigating, noting these messages come in the wake of previous racist threats against Black communities, which included references to slavery. The authorities are consulting with the Justice Department, and no violent acts have been reported as a result. Community leaders are calling this a troubling rise in hate rhetoric, urging recipients of such messages to report them to law enforcement.
