ZOG (usually capitalized) is an acronym standing for “zionist occupied government” tied to white supremacist groups that falls into the usual “Jewish cabal runs everything” nonsense.
to add to this, with this context, “the zog powder they sell to you” becomes a blantantly antisemitic conspiracy theory: Jewish people are feeding you crap (in this case, gatorade) to keep you weak
yes it’s ridiculous nonsense, but that’s how dogwhisles work.
Definitely. On top of that, bullshit like this contributes to the muddy waters when you have legitimate critiques of zionism and the government of Israel. But I’m sure the white supremacists know that when they create this bullshit so they can make potential recruits feel like more people agree with their horseshit.
100%, Israel itself is the greatest threat to Jewish people worldwide. The false claims of antisemitism allows actual antisemitism to spread where it would have been stamped out otherwise.
I missed it too, but he did put a fucking ZOG thing there in lower case. ZOG as for (global) Zionist Occupational Government, the crown jewel of antisemitic conspiracies. His whole speech isn’t about it, but that little casual slip means he is exposed to such ideas and/or ponders them at his own.
I’m naive. What’s the whistle there?

I’ve definitely seen some people trot out terms like ZOG in discussions about Zionism or the Gaza genocide. Always skeeves me out.
One of the problems with what Israel is doing that nobody wants to talk about is that it gives these Nazi chuds oxygen in leftist spaces.

The guy is eating horse supplements. He was never going to be top of the class.
