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?

There’s many different actors (or friends or family being roped into the whole ring camera reactions) that this tiktoker films all from the same house, including this man, some are feel good, some are rage bait, but it’s all to get views and none of it is real. There’s discussions to be had around all sorts of issues in the UK but view farming fake videos are shite and unhelpful starting point.

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.

You didn’t say it was fake in your post. You implied the people more deserving of thread were Jews.

There are dozens of threads about anti-Semitism on MN, yet the first thing you did on a rare thread about Muslims is to hijack it and derail it.

BackInFiveMinutes · 16/09/2025 16:13

Not very wise to be race baiting with fake videos OP.

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.

You can’t upload them because they don’t exist. And you know they don’t.

I think the poster you quoted is making repeated posts, in the hope that it will be harder for Mumsnet to delete. I have reported, and it's best to not give them the attention they are so craving. It is clear that they harbor reprehensible views.

I would like to whole heartedly and sincerely apologise for, in a video which was not about a Muslim, in which no Muslim appeared, and in which nothing happened to a Muslim, for not expressing solidarity with Muslims or expressing any sympathy with the Muslim who did not exist..

I would further like to wholeheartedly and sincerely apologise for, in a thread saying Britain is becoming like 1930s Germany, talking about current real experiences of British Jews. I can now see that this was wholly irrelevant to the point of hijacking the thread about the invisible, voiceless Muslim whom nothing had happened to as s/he does not exist.

I feel like such a fool.

The irony is that @nomas is not only a racist, but is very comfortable airing those views, but tries to to accuse others without basis. I have reported their posts.

I’ve reported you for throwing around insults like anti-Semite. As you also made repeated posts, maybe I should report you for that as well? Hmm

Your openly racist posts have been deleted. I have rightly called them out for what they are, as have multiple other posters.

You need to take a step back and reflect on what makes you so hateful.

Digging a hole AND falling in, nomas. Can you get out? Or are you stuck reproachfully labelling and putting down everyone that doesn't submit to your narratives.

The fact that you think that I am insulting you, rather than acknowledging the truth that you are in fact racist, says it all about you. It is not an insult, it is a label.

Minds, like books, only worn when they are open. Even racists can change if they are willing to educate themselves. Please take time to do so.

I thought this thread was about racism in general, not just islamophobia. I appreciate the premis of the (fake in this instance) video is to support a Muslim neighbour but it isn't just Muslims affected by recent events. Are people genuinely so oblivious that other minorities and religions are hurting too? In any event, the OP cited Nazi Germany which is singularly notorious for the genocide of Jews so to try and minimise or shut down a conversation about current anti-semitism in this particular thread is strange at best.

It's a great video, but it's fake.

I could have made it, although I’m not an old man, for my Muslim neighbours.

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.

This is awful. I’m so sorry.

Have you yet reflected why your posts were deleted? It is because they are racist, and that is not permitted on Mumsnet, as per their rules.
