Antisemitic remarks have soared online since Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel on 7 October, with YouTube totalling 15,720 hateful comments against Jewish people in the following week, according to a recent report.
Fears have also grown over rising Islamophobia as soaring tensions around the world over the Israel Hamas war.
The new research, released by the UK-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) on Tuesday, found that in the three days following the attack, the absolute number of antisemitic comments on conflict-related YouTube videos increased by 4963% when compared to the previous three days.
The British think tank also analysed fringe and alternative social media platforms like 4chan, Gab, and Telegram, finding that antisemitism has significantly increased there too, with 4chan reporting the highest volume of such remarks.
