The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

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.
They didn't always seem so racist, but these days, yeah.
"oh really? how nice it must be to live in a world completely divorced from noticing literally anything when it comes to Jews, conspiracy theorists, antisemitism, and genocide" ~ Jews for the last 3500 years
They were racist, but they hid it better, or maybe you didn’t know any personally, as to see it firsthand.
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.
Probably a bit of both.
