QAnon and Antisemitism
Hi, I'm Jewish and while none of my loved ones have fallen into this cult, it definitely has an impact on me because it makes me fearful about the rise of antisemitism around the world.
Something I feel like isn't stressed enough about QAnon whenever people try to explain it is that it is largely a combination of old antisemitic conspiracy theories: blood libel, the Protocols of Elders of Zion, Judeo-Bolshevism.etc, all rebranded into a modern day MAGA cult.
I think that to a random non-Jewish person who likely doesn't know anything about antisemitism, they don't see QAnon as antisemitic because they never specifically say anything like, "these Jews are a bunch of communist, baby-killing, satanic pedophiles who control the government." Instead, they say things like "There's a global cabal of cultural marxist, globalist, baby-killing, satanic pedophiles that control the government." It inevitably leads you to blaming everything on the Jews one way or another, but they just don't outright say it.
But I think that if people make a point that it's an antisemitic conspiracy theory, if they stress that enough when they warn people against QAnon…I feel like it could have an impact on preventing people from falling into it, and also maybe help drag some people out of it.
What do you guys think?
