B.J. Penn is the latest MMA fighter to promote an unfounded antisemitic conspiracy theory.
The former two-division UFC champion turned gubernatorial candidate in Hawaii took to Instagram to share a series of images and infographics explaining the supposed dangers of globalism. His post included an image of a group of men surrounding a table shaped like the world, which harkens back to the anti-Jewish narratives pushed by Nazi Germany and countless others.
The term globalist has been used by far-right figures, right wing politicians, and conservative pundits to promote the unfounded and antisemitic conspiracy theory that Jewish people are perpetrators of a global economy and international political system that enhances their control of banks, governments, and media.
