From Jewish News, the dark side of an animal rights group:

An animal rights group that claims to fight cruelty to pigs is spreading vile antisemitic conspiracy theories – blaming “Zionists” for the Holocaust, 9/11 and the war in Ukraine – while boasting celebrity backers, Jewish News can reveal.

Farms Not Factories, which campaigns for consumers to only buy local, high welfare and ethically produced pork, lists celebrities including Hugh Grant, former Channel 4 TV presenter Jon Snow and Game of Thrones actor Jerome Flynn on its “high profile supporters” page.

However, the organisation also publishes what it describes as “newsletters”, tens of thousands of words long, which quote copiously from a variety of deeply unpleasant sources pontificating about Jews, Israel and the Shoah, as well as promoting anti-vaccination and anti-Ukraine themes.

The newsletters tend to begin with the line, “The purpose of our newsletter is to give you important information that is censored in the mainstream media.” While much of the newsletters are made up of quotes from different sources, the newsletter itself will also introduce topics with its own wording. Examples of the latter, from newsletters over the last few months, include:

• “In the 1930s the Rothschild-Rockefeller alliance introduced music frequency science that would alter people’s mental state into disruption, disharmony and disunity to brainwash them to be ready to fight in World War II”
• “Watch a banker explain how during WWl the German and US Central banks were run by two Zionist brothers.”
• “Murdering non-jewish children is allowed in the Talmud”
• “Charlie Kirk’s words that helped get him killed by the zionists”
• “Zionists are liars, thieves and murderers in their pursuit of world domination”
• “The proxy war in Ukraine is to steal Russia’s resources and bleed them of their power to intervene in the West and zionist geopolitical games.”

Oh boy.
