    a post on the "lizard people" trope

    post from ConfusionOfConfusions on tumblr, reading
lizard people is the most benign possible antisemitism but for some reason it hits me harder than overtly malicious antisemitism, i think bc it’s The Case Study of how easily an antisemitic trope can just become a normal part of everybodys vocab and after that ppl will fight you endlessly on whether or not its actually antisemitic
    i think also, to people who are not familiar with antisemitism (through experience or study or both), antisemitism often comes across as cartoonish or wildly antiquated, so that people are inclined to dismiss it as toothless. i mean, lizard people is super fucking silly. or, people don’t really believe jews drink the blood of christian children anymore, that’s medieval. then its on jews to put in the legwork pointing out the use of lizard people to describe zuckerberg’s physical appearance, how qanon is modern blood libel, how easter pogroms can’t really be divorced from ‘the war on christmas’. and then, especially because conspiracy theory is now such a jokey quirky thing to so many people (”what’s your favorite conspiracy theory”) and not understood as an integral aspect of modern antisemitism, jews are suddenly The Fun Police, even tho all of these things share the same logic and imagery that drove an entire genocide not even a century ago

    The Forest Owlet was thought to be extinct until it was rediscovered in 1997—113 years after the last recorded sighting! It has a distinct rectangular head with bright yellow eyes and strong talons for catching large prey. It inhabits patches of forests across central India.

    A Forest Owlet perched on a tree branch. Its back is facing the viewer but its head is turned over its left shoulder and it's staring at the viewer. The owl has brown and creme-colored plumage and a boxy body shape; it has large round yellow eyes and a pointed, yellow, downward curving beak. Blue sky is in the background.
