A woman who recently endured a racially charged attack has expressed her distress, revealing to the Mail that she is now “unable to sleep and too afraid to leave her home” following the unsettling event.

The victim, known as Bella, has chosen to withhold her last name due to safety concerns. She was targeted by a DCU graduate infamous for her social media presence, where she has garnered a large following by posting videos of herself attacking and spitting on people of foreign descent.

Bella promptly reported the incident to the police, who informed her that they have seized the attacker’s electronic devices for further investigation.

The assailant, identified as Chloe Power and known online as Empathchan, the Ruthless Dictator, began removing videos from her online accounts after news of the assault came to light.

Originally from Africa, Bella has resided in Ireland for the past four years. During a shopping trip to Penneys on Dublin’s Mary Street, she was subjected to racial slurs, including the “n” word, while her attacker recorded the incident.

Later that evening, the attacker uploaded the video of the assault to her social media platforms.

The civil law graduate, who is in her early 20s, is part of a growing trend where vile agitators attempt to make money from being openly hateful towards people they consider different.

By Thursday the video, which has since been removed, was viewed over 600,000 times.

Bella told the MoS she was ‘shocked’ to see the footage go viral and reported the incident to Store Street Garda Station in a bid to stop it happening to another person.

She added: ‘Honestly I’m really struggling, I have not been sleeping, I’m scared to go out.

‘I’ve had to cancel work twice because I couldn’t bring myself to leave. I have so many people sending me my pictures and I have people from all over the world getting in contact.

‘People from Canada, the Netherlands and America are calling me.

‘My parents are very worried. They’re back home in Africa but people sent it to them.’

Describing the attack, Bella told how she was with a friend in Penneys when a woman pushed between them.

She said: ‘When I asked her why she started filming me and shouting racial slurs and telling me to go back to my country.

‘She said the “n” word and I said “you need to repeat that” and she ran away saying “they’re chimping out”. 

‘She even went as far as to make an AI picture [with Bella as a chimp]. I feel like she was waiting for me.’

Bella did not ‘for a second’ think the footage would be uploaded to social media and was ‘shocked’ the next morning when a person from Canada contacted her after seeing the video.

She said: ‘She’s filming me like I am the aggressor and I am the victim. I wasn’t going to go to the gardaí but I woke the next morning to see she had posted it to Instagram, X, everywhere. I reported it and the gardaí said she’s been doing it for quite a while.

‘She has been attacking people, even kids. Another victim came to me and said she had done the same thing to them weeks ago and he reported it to the gardaí.

‘I’m so anxious, it took me so much to get dressed and leave my room today. 

‘I had different hair on the day she saw me. I am so scared people will recognise me as the girl from the video. ’

Bella was living in Ukraine before the war and came to Ireland where she believed she would be ‘safe’. She said: ‘My mum is calling asking if I am OK. My dad is so worried. 

‘The gardaí could see she has a pattern of abusing people. I think she is doing it so that someone will retaliate because I saw a four–minute video of her attacking people of colour.

‘Spitting on them. It’s so disturbing. It’s really sad because I work with Irish people and I know the Irish are really nice. 

‘This is the first confrontation I have had like this in my whole life and I have lived in other countries too. 

‘She is targeting children, she needs to be arrested. I feel like if they don’t make an example of her someone else will take it even further.

‘The authorities need to act, it is not a lawless country.’

Earlier this year, the MoS revealed how the DCU graduate, who has almost 40,000 followers on X alone, is profiting from her vile videos where she spits on and shouts racial abuse at people.

In a video uploaded this week, she accosts a mother and her two young children. She shouts at the clearly frightened children, who take their mother’s hand, to ‘go back to their country.’

In another recent video, which has been viewed over a million times, the young woman accosts an Indian couple standing at a bus stop in Dublin city.

Filming the disturbing exchange she says: ‘I mean like you rape women and stuff.’

In among the disturbing videos posted to her account, she posts links for people to donate money or buy sweatshirts with her face printed on the front. 

The influencer, who frequently posts suggestive photos – often heavily doctored – of herself on her X page, had a brief but unsuccessful stint on OnlyFans before moving into monetising far–right fear and hatred.   

When contacted by the Mail for comment, Chloe Power’s only response was: ‘Who asked?’
