Ok but can we not depict a Jewish person as a lizard person. Lizard people are an antisemitic conspiracy
While I do agree with that, I don’t think that’s relevant in this case. Most people don’t even know mark is Jewish. Hell I didn’t know that until last week or so. I believe the joke here is that Mark just behaves like an alien pretending to be human. Hence the lizard people conspiracy meme.
Go clutch your pearls on threads.
The "reptilian conspiracy theory" has nothing to do with Jews. Please don't create antisemitism and stuff where there is none
You’re wrong though. The Rothschilds are part of the conspiracy and they are jewish. It’s in the wiki you linked there.
"He contends that most of the world's ancient and modern leaders are related to these reptilians, including the Merovingian dynasty, the Rothschilds, the Bush family and the British Royal family.[22]"
How do you translate this to being a conspiracy about Jews specifically?
It’s not specifically about that, but I still see where they’re coming from. When you keep talking to conspiracy theorists they always bring up the Jews eventually. This means that a lot of conspiracy theories that don’t explicitly have anything specific to do with Jews (like 9/11 being faked, to name an example) to still be strongly tied to antisemitism.
The Rothschilds were brought up because they're rich and influential, not because they're Jewish.
My point is not that the Rotschilds were brought up here, but rather that basically every conspiracy theorist given enough time will end up saying that the Jews run the world. This is why every conspiracy theory, even if not explicitly about Jews, is still connected to antisemitism.
Oh man, yeah it being popularized by David Icke really helps your case there...
It's clear that he is portrayed as a snake (did you read his text bubble?)
Jewish or not, he absolutely is a snake. I don't think anyone but you made the connection: Zuckeberg -> Jewish -> lizard.
While I'm with you on that, I am definitely getting more of a "sneaky snake" vibe from this comic, personally.
Fair, maybe I’m just being a bit over cautious here as I’ve noticed a huge rise in antisemitism over the past year or so and would rather err on the side of not risking coming off as such
I definitely don't blame you for that. Dogwhistles come with that little bit of plausible deniability so it's impossible to draw a hard line on this type of thing.
I never made that connection. I thought it was just because he's an emotionless alien?
