Zionist Occupied Government (ZOG)

conspiracy \ 'zīə,nizt 'äkyə,pīd 'gəvər(n)mənt (zôg) \

: white supremacist belief declaring the U.S. government is controlled by Jews

WHY IT’S ANTISEMITIC:

Tweet saying, "When we create our own social media networks, if we even allow CNN or BCC on, we will label them with ZOG Affiliated Media." With Zog Affiliated Media underlined
A tweet shared in August 2020.

ZOG is a white supremacist theory that believes Jews (“Zionists”) secretly control Western politics (see conspiracy theory, control). The term first appeared in the 1970s in the U.S. and is found on white supremacist sites such as Aryan Nations and National Alliance. By manipulating Western governments, antisemites claim ZOG controls the world economy, limits free speech, confiscates land, and usurps military and police forces. The phrase “Zionist occupiers” is also used by antisemites on the far-left and by Islamists, seeking to destroy Israel.
