Re: When did conspiracy theories turn so nasty?

[(Anonymous)]

I think there's always been a lot of sinister conspiracy theories, but the funny ones tend to stick around in memory? I mean the "Jews are evil and secretly run the world" dates waaaaay back to when Christians actually followed the religion's rules not to make money on loans.

"America faked the moon landing" is funny and fairly harmless at this point. "Obama faked Sandy Hook to push anti-gun propaganda!" is just sick.

this isn't quite right. Like, yes, it's absolutely true that Christianity has been anti-Semitic for about as long as Christianity has existed, and I don't want to deny that by any means. But the particular "worldwide Zionist conspiracy" mode of anti-Semitism doesn't really exist before about the 19th century. It's a distinctively modern idea. At least AFAIK.

also I deffo wouldn't want to get involved in a discussion about the religious basis for medieval usury laws
