What better way to do that than to blame Jews for killing the literal savior, casting remaining Jews as Christ-denying heirs to a dark conspiracy?

But, more likely than not, he’s just using him as a stand-in for generalized Jewish wealth and power. Totally, they are the epitome of old world luxury and opulence and palaces, all the all the stuff you’d use in a “which way, western man” meme. After Christianity’s conquest of the Roman Empire and Europe, blaming the Jews for the world’s ills — from war to famine to pandemic — became a persistent feature of the European social environment.Perhaps, Taylor Greene is being incredibly brave every time she spends time outside without a force field around her. Their largesse, their wealth, their old money class, their ability to make or break nations with a loan of mere peanuts (to them), and their sheer everything are famous around the world. Gee, blaming a racial group for a public health crisis, in this case an environmental health crisis?

Discover the origins of the Rothschild myths, from their groundbreaking impact on the banking industry to the present day, where they remain a target of unfounded accusations. But then, particularly in writing the QAnon book, I started seeing all these references to the Rothschilds, and I thought, what is actually going on with this? To be fair, Greene didn’t use the words “ Jewish space lasers” – that was a journalist’s fair interpretation of what she wrote – but she did speculate that the deadly Camp Fire in California might have been sparked by Pacific Gas and Electric Co. Sometimes “Space Lasers” moves through their genealogy with dizzying speed: In the course of one paragraph, we meet Mayer’s great-grandfather, grandfather and father, Amschel Moses, who “worked his way into becoming the court Jew to Crown Prince William … son of the Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel, one of the wealthiest states in the empire,” which largely made its fortune by renting out professional soldiers as foreign mercenaries.Noting that NORAD tracks Santa’s route each year, she urged those military officials monitoring his progress “to be on the lookout for any incoming of a space-laser-ish nature. Rothschild’s book demonstrates that much can be accomplished by laying out available historical data. After the rise of Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany and the horrors of the Holocaust, the horrific endpoint of centuries of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, explicit anti-Semitism became far less socially acceptable in both Europe and the United States.

Well, Taylor Greene’s post suggested that the Rothschild banking firm is behind a supposed corporate cabal that engineered this whole space laser plot. One might be tempted to focus on how a person with such dangerous and criminal associations could get into the orbit of the former president and current members of the US Congress. They are delighted with their supply of conspiracy theories and the alternative facts that underpin them. Mike Rothschild is a journalist, author, and the foremost expert in this ever-changing QAnon conspiracy theory. Ms Greene has frequently promoted conspiracy theories both before and after her election to the US House of Representatives, from QAnon through 9/11 to Donald Trump's spurious claims of a stolen election.It is blaming a Jewish advocacy organization, which is a stand-in for the Jews in general, for your own personal failures. The persistence of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories should make mainstream politicians very wary about indulging in conspiratorial thinking, especially about Jews. And if you’re looking forward to what’s still ahead, we rounded up some of the buzziest releases of the summer. Given her popularity with former President Donald Trump and with the QAnon movement, and its overall interest in owning the libs, the institutional Republican Party has been much more reluctant to respond.
