New Wave of Offensive Texts Targets Hispanic and L.G.B.T.Q. People
nytimes.comA wave of offensive text messages and emails has gone out to Hispanic and L.G.B.T.Q. people in recent days, according to the F.B.I., coming on the heels of a barrage of racist texts that were sent to Black people in the wake of the election.
The F.B.I. said in a statement on Friday that some recipients of the latest messages were told they had been selected for deportation.
Others were instructed to report to a “re-education camp” for L.G.B.T.Q. people, the agency said, an apparent reference to conversion therapy or other coercive practices aimed at altering a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity.
The messages were the latest in a series of offensive content that started popping up just hours after the presidential race was called for Donald J.
