Death threats against ‘White Women for Kamala Harris’ social media influencer invite FBI probe

A social media influencer who spoke during the “White Women for Kamala Harris” Zoom call will seek a restraining order Monday after a flurry of death threats led to an FBI investigation into the woman’s harassment.

Arielle Fodor, a former elementary school teacher who became famous from her “Mrs. Frazzled” TikTok account, told the New York Post that agitators hounded her and her family following her viral speech during the campaign event last month.

Do we need to be “gentle parented” through this election?

The influencer said she received 11 death threats and even had food delivered to her home, which Ms. Fodor told the Post was the instigators’ way of telling her they know where she lives.

Ms. Fodor added that some harassers called her and her family members, and also threatened to publish personal information about the ex-teacher online.

The internet starlet taught kindergarten from 2018 to 2021. She now creates social media content where she speaks patronizingly to politically incorrect friends, relatives or public figures as if they were her former students.

During the “White Women for Kamala Harris” Zoom call, Ms. Fodor gave white women tips about how to behave appropriately on the internet, especially when talking with racial minorities.

Her “gentle parenting” delivery and advice caught the eye of conservative pundits such as Ben Shapiro and X owner Elon Musk, and motivated other users to investigate her catalog of videos.

Ms. Fodor’s content has her telling Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker to “stay in his lane” after his oft-criticized commencement speech this spring and talking down to big oil companies because “taking things from super special places hurts nature.”
