#Harvard grad Claira Janover fired over TikTok ‘stab threat’ now raising money online

The Harvard graduate fired over a TikTok video in which she threatened to “stab” anyone who told her “All Lives Matter” is now trying to raise cash online.

Claira Janover — who tearfully announced Wednesday that she had been fired over the furor of her “analogous joke” video — updated her offending TikTok to include her Venmo details for donations.

On Instagram, she linked to a GoFundMe account set up by Harvard pals called ‘The Claira Janover is Incredible Fund.”

“She is now unemployed and at great financial and physical risk,” claimed the page.

By Thursday morning, the appeal had already reached its modest goal of $4,000 with more than 140 people donating in the first few hours.

It also asked for supporters to write to Twitter “asking for the death threats to be taken down” — as well as to accounting firm Deloitte “condemning its decision to fire her.”

Janover went viral by saying she would stab anyone with “the sheer entitled caucasity” to say “All Lives Matter” — just so she could hold up a paper cut and say “‘My cut matters, too.’”

She insisted it was clearly an “analogous joke” about racist responses to “Black Lives Matter” — and marveled at the “insane” response.

Fundraising organizer Eric Cheng — who graduated Harvard alongside Janover in May — condemned the “truly disgusting death and rape threats from right-wing trolls” aimed against “one of my best friends.”

“Still, she will continue voicing her beliefs,” he vowed on Twitter.

Friends previously raised $3,473 for Janover when she lost her mother to cancer in February last year, the site shows.

Despite her defiance against the attacks, Janover had made her Twitter account private Thursday and said on TikTok that she was “gonna be off the grid due to some scarrrryyyy messages.”
