This was not going to be the direction I was headed with an article today, but after seeing the video and hearing that there was more to it than from when the filming began, I did some research and I am left wondering how people have become so utterly cruel to each other.
Granted, we can attest to the fact that there are some very wonderful people in this country and around the globe, but the levels of cruelty being seen these days is reprehensible.
The very short video below is incredibly hard to watch, but it offers clues as to what the larger story truly is, as we see the young Holiday Inn Express worker have what we can only term as a mental meltdown after a customer starts harassing him.
Note: 1) customer asking the worker why he hit his computer, which clearly shows the video didn't start until the harassment was already ongoing, and; 2) At the 18 second mark, the employee started to admit to being mentally ill but was cut off by the customer.
No that is not satire. Not a hoax. As explained below, that incident was highlighted by an admitted "race baiter," to his 264K followers, and eventually led to his receiving death threats and having thoughts of self-harm.
This was how the video was described and shared by someone named Tariq Nasheed to his 264K followers.
A white Holiday Inn Express worker has a nervous breakdown after he got scolded by a Black customer because of a mistake in the reservation system.
First point, notice how Tariq there is the one highlighting race, as if that was the part of whole reprehensibly cruel incident that meant anything.
Second point, it is pretty clear when the the young man started pounding on his own head before slamming his head into his own computer, that something was clearly wrong with him, mentally and emotionally, yet the person filming just kept on tormenting him.

THE CONTEXT SHOWS HOW CRUEL PEOPLE HAVE BECOME
After the video went viral with the help of good ole Tariq, the employee took to forums to explain that was him and to put what we see above into some type of context.
He explained he has BPD (Bipolar Disorder) and schizo-affective disorders, as well as detailing the harassment before the video started rolling, stating the guy had called him a "faggot" and that he already told the man before the filing began that he has mental issues.
The Karma part of this is that someone felt so bad for the employee they set up a GoFundMe fundraiser, with the employee as the beneficiary, with the goal of $5,000 to help the guy who felt he had to leave the hospitality industry, and within one day, the total donated is more than $90,000 as of this writing.
A Holiday Inn employee was harassed and filmed by a customer having a mental breakdown & is now receiving death threats & having thoughts of self-harm.
It turns out this employee has BPD with schizo-active tendencies. According To Him.
"While I’ve now quit this position (my management supported me, and told me I’m welcome back. The guest was ejected from the hotel for escalating issues with staff and the owners.)
I do have mental disorders. I suffer from BPD and schizo-affective disorders. What this fine, gentleman behind the camera DIDN’T record was the fact that he called me a F**GOT for an associates mistake.
He was aggressive, and fishing for a reaction. He sure got it; and I’m glad this was a wake up call for me to stop slaving away for corporations who do not care about you at all, or the guests."
One has to wonder how the person that harassed the mental ill gay individual feels about being the cause of the unemployed young man being over $90,000 richer and the donations are still rolling in.
That has got to sting.
Ole Tariq is probably not thrilled either.
Woman sucker punched in New York
BIGGER ISSUE: INCREASING CRUELTY
From being sucker punched in New York for just walking down the street minding their own business, to randomly harassing someone for simply disagreeing, to online mobs attacking others, to cancel culture, we are seeing an massive increase in frequency of this type of cruelty being perpetrated against others.
Why torment those weaker?
Why harass store managers, employees in any field of hospitality by being a "Karen," and just looking for something to complain about or be offended about?
Why is everything about race, or culture, or anti-religion? Why are some of those screaming racism the loudest, the only ones actually focusing on race to begin with?
My biggest question, is why is the type of cruelty shown above by the person filming and the misrepresentation of it by Tariq, defended by others?
To me that video is heartbreaking.
Worse even is that after the nervous breakdown, the person filming was so utterly cruel that they thought it would be a good idea to actually upload the video to humiliate the employee more.
Granted there have always been bullies, and there always will be, but these days, not a day goes by where that type of bullying is treated as "normal."
It isn't.
BOTTOM LINE
The difference between the man that show the video of the hotel employee and the employee himself, is that at least the employee knows he is mentally ill, the personal that filmed it, and Tariq who shared it with his 264K followers, appear to be unaware of their own mental instability.
Another bit of cruelty happening with increasing frequency in New York.... sucker punching people, especially the elderly.
