Political Antisemitism in gaming

I wrote this during the covid lockdown when many children were held up in their homes and their source of entertainment was gaming.

My daughter then 11 was a huge fan of “Roblox” a gaming platform that was a lot of fun.

So, I had heard that gaming platforms were becoming increasingly dangerous with “grooming” children, so I decided to set up my own account to monitor my daughters contacts.

What I never realised was that political Antisemitic players, were using these platforms to bully and spread false blood libels about Jews, the Holocaust and Israel.
