New research by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue found that in the days after Hamas' attack antisemitic comments on conflict-related YouTube videos increased by 4963%.

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.

Part of this surge can be explained by an increase in the number of videos focusing on Israel and Gaza published on the platform. But the proportion of antisemitic comments had still ballooned by a daily average of 247% after fighting broke out, according to the ISD.

    I personally have experienced more anti-Israli comments. However, anti-Semitism is also more common nowadays. That’s just my experience tho
