Conspiracy Tropes
Bilderberg Conspiracy
Portrayal of the Bilderberg Group as secretive elites plotting global control, feeding into classic antisemitic hidden-power narratives.
The Allegation
Farage portrayed the Bilderberg Group as secretive elites plotting control (2013 conspiracy film, Infowars). Watchdogs criticise it as feeding hidden-broker tropes.
Why This Is Antisemitic
Bilderberg theories allege Jewish-led cabals, rooted in Rothschild myths and "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" (1903 forgery claiming Jewish world plots). Popularised in 1950s far-right, they tie to Nazi "international finance" propaganda, evolving into QAnon blending with Jewish blame. This scapegoats Jews for global ills.
