      The "reptillian" conspiracy theory is a transparent re-packaging of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Lizard people simply stand in for Jews to give the "theory" more credibility with the normies. Which is unfortunate because I used to love making jokes about Nancy Pelosi unhinging her jaw to swallow a toddler whole.

          As long as you're careful not to drift in to blood-libel territory. Coming up with suitably rude and cruel insults for the ruling class is fraught because anti-Semites have already taken up so much space.

          Oh yeah he's definitely a robot from the future sent to destroy us, no question there.

        I always assumed it was an intuitive but mangled assessment of the psychopathic servile addiction to appetites, reptiles as a metaphor. TIL.

          Apparently there is one specific conspiracy book that the reptilians are from and the author basically took the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and did a Find and Replace with "reptilian" in place of "Jew".

            Fucking reactionaries ruining a perfectly good metaphor again. Lizard brains => narcissistic psychopathy. It's a shame.

      I’ve always said he looks like if you took a skeleton and just stretched skin over it, without remembering the muscles, tendons, and fat deposits.
