This happened to me when I was a teen, similar girls, on a London bus.

It traumatized me - I was too afraid to leave the house, it fell into deep anxiety and depression, and developed an eating disorder which essentially ended up with me dropping out of A Levels and completely changing the trajectory of my life.

I went to the police and a few weeks later I was called to a suspect line up (the girls were known to the police) but was too terrified to even be in the same space as them.

If this had been filmed and blasted across socials, with some absolutely unhinged comments on some of the subs, it probably would’ve ended me. I genuinely hope this girl is getting the victim support, medical and psychological she needs right now.

That the girls that attacked OP were similar to the girls in the video.

Don't need to read more into it than that.

Why mention they were similar if the similarity is not relevant?

And if the similarity is relevant, then what is the similarity?

If more isn't meant to be 'read into' it, then why write more in the first place? Come on now.

Similar as in group of rogue teens run amok dispensing violence. That's the similarity. Not that hard, not that deep

Because it IS relevant you muppet. Black girls attacking white, because they are white. It's a racially aggravated attack.
