Tailoring in Brandenburg: After hacker attack - focus on anti -Semitism!

An anti-Semitic Facebook post is currently ensuring violent controversy around a tailoring in Brandenburg. The owner, Mehmet Uyar, defines any connection to the post that was published on his company side. He claims that the site had been chopped and immediately felt obliged to delete the problematic entry, which contained claims on a ban on a house for Jews and Israelis. According to [RND] (https://www.rnd.de/panorama/kleinmachnow-facebook-tra-juden-schneidereiderei- häck-lg6tm7xcvbkd7p6etp6etp6etp6etpchrswe3ml), Uyar saw the post on Sunday afternoon and acted immediately.

Uyar, who operates several tailors in Kleinmachnow and Calau together with his father, emphasizes that he serves all customers regardless of their origin. In a conversation with Andreas Büttner, the representative against anti -Semitism in Brandenburg, who shared the incident on the platform X, he emphasized the diversity of his customers, of which around 60 % are Jewish faith. Büttner, who had learned from Uyar's telephone hint about the hack, condemned the incident and the associated agitation.

Investigations run

In the meantime, the police have initiated investigations to clarify the background of the Facebook post. A photo documents the police operation in Uyar's business premises, although the officials were unavailable in the evening for further information. The situation not only raises questions about the security measures on the Internet, but also about the deeper social problems related to anti -Semitism.

The debate about anti -Semitism is not new, especially not in the digital world. As the bpb, the Covid-19-Pandemie has favored the spread of anti-Semitic content on the Internet. Anti -Semitic conspiracy myths, which are updated by current events, have experienced worrying spread. A study by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights shows that 89 % of the respondents rate anti -Semitism on the Internet as a serious problem. Web 2.0 has reduced the inhibition of anti -Semitic content and offers the need for information about the dangers that come from such statements.

Our society faces the challenge of actively counteracting these phenomena and protecting those affected. The importance of sensitization and education cannot be emphasized enough. Anti -Semitism is shown in numerous facets and challenges all of us to take responsibility.
