One of the members of the far right fringe Freedom Caucus posted a graphic depicting several anti-Semitic memes and was forced to remove it after the Jewish Insider reached out for comment.
Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) approvingly shared an antisemitic meme on his campaign’s Facebook page earlier this week, underscoring a broader pattern in which the Pennsylvania Republican has espoused conspiracy theories and used inflammatory rhetoric while in office.
“Says it all…,” Perry wrote on Tuesday in a comment he posted above the meme, which invokes several antisemitic tropes. The image depicts a scheming cabal of stereotypically Jewish bankers with hooked noses and thick beards gathered around a Monopoly board that sits atop the hunching backs of a group of naked figures.
The meme is also framed by two ominous lines of text. “If the people stand…,” it states, “…the game is over.”
