no idea where this came from, but in light of recent events it's just 
Honestly octopus was just the way political cartoonist portrayed influence neteworks lol. Yes it sometimes portrayed antisemitic conspiracies, but it seems like all popitical cartoonists used the same lazy way of portraying influence.
There's an NRO mission patch that depicts the NRO itself as an octopus.
when muckraking 20th century journalist Frank Norris wrote "The Octopus" about the rise of the Standard Oil corporation, he was actually doing an antisemitism against John Rockefeller's northern baptist beliefs
it's a common political cartoon comparison, saying it is strictly anti-semitic is a blatant lie, but they know that

ya, even the antisemitic cartoon being used in the smear is more anti-Zionist in reality since it features Churchill
conflating anti-Zionism as antisemitic is a very old tradition it seems
That one was made by fascists, it is explicitly anti-Semitic. It depicts Churchill as being controlled by Jewish people.
mindflayer doing a bit: "these brains taste terrible, and there's so little of them!"
Octobear when?
Also, top tier

Replace communist with fascist and Moscow with D.C. and you have a fine description of operation GladioGreta posted something with one of the little ND feelings expression octupus plushes, and some Zionist dug up a Nazi propaganda poster depicting Jewish people as an octopus spreading it's tentacles across the globe and used it as a pretense to call her an anti-Semite. People have been riffing on it since, as one does.
