    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.

      That’s fair and I’ve sadly noticed it too. I’ve recently learned what triple brackets mean.

      I still see lizard people as like a crazy molemen theory or bigfoot, not Jewish people. I think the response in this thread shows the majority of people, even those quite online, don’t see that connotation to it either and bringing attention to it could make it worse.
