Video footage has emerged of an Uber passenger in Australia hurling antisemitic abuse at a driver.
The Daily Mail reported that the incident took place in Perth, Australia. A man filmed himself boarding an Uber ride, and then asked the driver, “So, you’re Jewish?”
When finding out the driver was a Jew, the passenger began verbally abusing him, saying, “I don’t like Jews. I’m not going to ride with a Jew.” He then called him a “f**king Jewish dog,” along with a torrent of other obscenities.
The man demanded to be let out and the driver agreed. As the car drove away, the passenger said, “I’d rather walk, f**king dog.”
Social media users online praised the driver for his coolness and refusal to react to the passenger’s abuse, including saying, “Enjoy yourself.”
