After a US internship candidate declined a position at a Jewish-owned company with an antisemitic message, online harassers are now calling for one-star rating attacks against the businesses of the Jewish entrepreneur's parents, according to reports.
An antisemitic harassment campaign is escalating online in the United States. A candidate for an internship reportedly declined an offer from a Jewish-owned startup, sending a hateful message rejecting the opportunity because it was offered by a Jew. Following the incident, online users have begun calling for coordinated one-star review attacks against businesses owned by the Jewish entrepreneur's parents, aiming to harm them economically. The Zioneer reported earlier on the initial rejection, which drew widespread condemnation. The harassment has since broadened to target the entrepreneur's family. The scope of the campaign and any law enforcement response remain unconfirmed.
