“In 2016, the Green Party played an outsized role in tipping the election to Donald Trump,”

They'll blame anything other than the facts of Hillary being unlikable and Wasserman-Schulz being incompetent. Johnson took 3x as many votes from the Republicans as Stein took from the Democrats. In the end, Hillary was an electoral dud and Wasserman-Schulz' mishandling of the primaries led to faithless electors.

As a fellow Jew, I agree, but it's worth noting. I wouldn't ever call someone an antisemite for referring to someone as a lizard-person, because at this point no one intends it that way. I have a friend who's pretty receptive to social justice issues and mentioned it to her recently just as an interesting point of conversation.

The reptilian conspiracy theory can be considered at least antisemitism-adjacent, which makes its popularity with respect to Zuckerberg... interesting.
