Some people indulge in conspiracies for fun. “Lizard people” just meant rich people who can’t relate to regular people problems. Zuckerberg is the poster boy for unrelatable rich person. His Smoke Meat stream would have been called farfetched if it was fiction.
I don’t really believe he’s a lizard person, but he would fit right in as a Star Trek alien.
But no, a ton of them today legit mean reptilian people. Like they’ll get all excited about YouTube videos where there’s a reflection in a celebrity’s eyes from their reptilian eye or some crap.
And then this has since further devolved into modern theories around clones and skinsuits and people pretending to be other people.
Entire threads dedicated to examining moles between photographs to point out how it’s really a different person.
Social media effectively constricting our functional difference has turned us into John B Calhoun’s rats.
Not saying that it’s necessarily what’s going on there, but there’s a certain subset of insane white supremacist conspiracy theories that thinks that Christianity is a Jewish conspiracy to make their beliefs more palatable to the masses and spread their influence or something along those lines. It’spart of the reason some white supremacists are into norse paganism and such. You’ll also get bullshit about the “wrong” branches of Christianity being controlled by the Jews, etc.
It’s all completely insane of course, but I guess there’s something that almost approaches logic to it, it’s kind of weird for people who are so proud of being white to follow the teachings of a middle eastern religion.
There’s a pretty interesting rabbit hole to go down with the various factions of white supremacist assholes, while they’re all pretty much the same in all the ways that matter to any of us who aren’t pieces of shit, under the surface there’s actually a lot of different little philosophical differences, and for a long time they really struggled to put together a united movement.
In case anyone wonders, lizard people means “the Jews” in context.
They don’t actually think there are lizard people, they’re just extra othering Jewish people.
One thing I’ve learned is that conspiracy theorists always seem to end up at racism.
And antisemitism
They didn’t always seem so racist, but these days, yeah.

They were racist, but they hid it better, or maybe you didn’t know any personally, as to see it firsthand.

Probably a bit of both.
I think you’d be surprised at how many do mean, and believe in actual lizard people.
The intersection of the people who believe in actual lizard people and those people who believe “Jewish people are lizard people” is probably 1:1
Oddly the guy mentioned, Klaus Schwab, is not Jewish.
Yeh, ISTR recall that David Icke believes the Royals are lizards. Ah - yep … https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-36339298
That was likely where it originated.

Except it doesn’t always mean Jewish people as Queen Elizabeth II was supposed to be one and she isn’t Jewish.
Klaus Schwab is Catholic and his parents moved to Nazi Germany so it is unlikely that he is Jewish.

Hah, little do you know that she was only wearing that crown to hide her yarmulke…
Oh, all this time I thought they were believing in actual lizard people.
How do they know, like how do racists exchange this information if they never openly mention jews?
Some of them are definitely still talking about actual lizard people, like they think live in the centre of the earth, came from space, etc.
Regarding how dog whistles spread I’m really not sure. I know I’ve been oblivious to some too.
