One of life’s timeless questions: ‘are the elite that control our lives reptilian alien accomplices?’ Alongside the other accused, such as Simon Cowell and George W Bush, they have constantly attempted to dismiss rumours which seem to never go away. Is it possible that there is any truth to these theories?
These claims came to a head in a livestreamed Q & A in 2016 when Zuckerberg’s chat was spammed with questions asking whether he was indeed actually a lizard. This forced a response from the Facebook billionaire. He read out a specific question, “Mark, are the allegations true that you are secretly a lizard?”. He replied in the negative and condemned the question as “very silly”. Sounds like something a lizard would say, no?
Before this conspiracy got hijacked by the meme community, where did the belief that the elites are secretly alien lizards come from? Originally it hails from anti-Semitic roots, with rich Jewish families such as the Rothschilds being depicted as Lizards ruling the world in popular cartoons. These old texts inspired respectable sports journalist David Icke, who added a new modern take.
