Video of a kind man supporting his Muslim neighbour. AIBU to be horrified that this is where we’re at right now?

I guess it may be fake, but there’s no reason to think it would be.
So many threads on here about the flags and the March etc. Lots of posters saying it’s ridiculous that these things are seen as far right, racist or racist.
The exchange in this clip could have been straight out of Germany in the 1930s.

How the hell did it come to this?

It’s real.

It's fake apparently - it's been on X with lots of discussion saying the guy also "stars" in other videos.

I'll caveat that to say I haven't looked for other videos but the whole thing smelt fake before I'd even seen the discussions.

I didn't mention Jews. I referenced Israel. I hope you are as disgusted at the actions of the Israeli authorities as the majority of people seem to be.

Your comments are completely the product of your own – what? Insecurities? Fears? Feeling of displacement? I don't know, maybe you can expand on why everything references back to your faith.

You said that I forgot to mention the actions of Israel in response to me talking about the harassment British Jews are facing. That underlies a clear thought pattern you have that British Jews should be held accountable for what a foreign country you have linked them to does, and ' deserve' the harassment they are currently facing.

You've also assumed I am Jewish. I am not. I am an atheist who is an anti-racist.

Your posts are an astounding display of your own racism and prejudice.

I repeat, you need to have a good hard look at your thinking.

People are literally smearing shit on synagogues in the UK, hounding and isolating Jewish students in British universities, abusing Jewish school children and Jewish people are increasingly hiding any sign of being Jewish in public, people in the UK have openly supported the racist murders against Jew of October 7th, and tore down posters of the hostages. Jewish people have been struck by, at best, the remarkable absence of support from their fellow British citizens in the face of all this hostility and hatred. As one Jewish man put it, ' I used to think I was a British Jew. Now I realise I am just a Jew who happens to live in Britain.'

I think all this is more reminiscent of 1930s Germany.

Couldn't agree more. Not to mention businesses boasting about not using jewish suppliers. I feel so sorry for the Jewish population of the UK at the moment.

Oh do us a favour. By this logic every UK muslim is responsible for October 7th, so poor treatment of them would be justified?

Seriously, are people so prejudiced that they can't allow an OP to write about Muslims receiving support for once?

Well done for successfully derailing one of the few threads about positive interactions with Muslims.

weighinin · 16/09/2025 15:57

nomas · 16/09/2025 15:45

You didn’t utter a single word of support for that Muslim neighbour. Not a single one.

Now that is telling. You’re not interested in the experiences of Muslims. Yet you hijacked the thread straightaway.

Actually I am. I have a religious studies degree where one of the religions I studied was Islam, have read the Koran from cover to cover, attended many talks by Muslims in mosques, and read numerous books by Muslims talking about their experiences as muslims ( latest one I recently finished is called 'Cut in the same cloth?').

If a person wants to say things in Britain are going like 1930s Germany that they have no grounds to get angry at people saying what thinks are like for British Jews.

I doubted that video was real and there was nothing in the video as far as I watched it (only got about half way through) to say anything had actually happened to the alleged Muslim neighbour.

I'd finally like to add that you have expressed not a single word of support for Jewish people for the very real things that I outlined are really happening to them in Britain. People in glass houses comes to mind.....

I haven't disrailed it.

Arguably those angrily and repeatedly objecting to people talking about harassment of British Jews in a thread that referenced 1930s Germany have.

Again, people in glass houses.....

Longingdreamer · 16/09/2025 15:59

Not even ten posts in and we have overtime Anti-Semitism. It is reminiscent of Nazi Germany indeed.

@Eyesopenwideawake you ought to be ashamed of yourself.

The thread is about Muslims feeling scared in light of what’s happening at the moment. You hijacked it and didn’t say a word about Muslims.

And yes, I have contributed to threads where Jews have felt scared, to show support.

You showed zero support. At least own it.

Tam285 · 16/09/2025 16:01

I didn't watch it all because it was so obviously fake - who talks on and on like that? You'd say 'look mate if you're feeling unsafe you're welcome over mine any time'. He even says things like 'your people' and 'do you understand what I'm saying' - not exactly words of the enlightened. He speaks like he's never talked to this person before in his life, despite living right across the street - but apparently is really concerned about them. It would literally take 3 seconds to get this message across if it was real, but that wouldn't get any attention on crappy SM platforms.

Not even 2 posts in and a poster dismissed the experiences of Muslims. Especially in the current climate.

They should be ashamed of themselves.

Longingdreamer · 16/09/2025 16:04

I am glad the racist post was deleted so quickly, just as I was reporting it, but the fact that this poster feels so comfortable in being Anti-semitic, and that this came so quickly into the thread, says everything in itself. Quite rightly, the UK does feel like 1930s Germany for Jews at present, and it's not because of the far right either.

This thread is about a fake video of a virtue signalling white man. There is no Muslim person, no voice of Muslim person, and not account of anything happening to a Muslim person.

Yet you throw out insults to someone talking about real prejudice to Jews in a thread referencing the Holocaust.

Its you who needs to own yourself.

its also the same man going around to his Muslim neighbours house to ask for some of the leftovers

it’s the same man going over to his neighbours asking why they hate him and didn’t send him a card

its the same man “warring” with his neighbours

Thank you. This poster has been openly Anti-semitic on several threads under this username. It's best not to engage and to report. I am shocked that they haven't been banned.

No, they don’t. Any examples?

They do, and you know they do, but you also know I'm not going to waste the next 45 minutes trawling through threads taking and uploading screenshots so that you can pretend they aren't numerous enough (n+1 at all times) or created by AI or still just don't matter for whatever reason. However, we all know that they do.
