This white paper identifies connections between COVID-19 conspiracy and antisemitism on Twitter. We identify prominent categories of COVID-19 conspiracy present on Twitter, each of which overlaps with common themes seen in antisemitic conspiracy theories. Implicitly antisemitic COVID-19 conspiratorial content may be less likely to violate social media hate speech policies but nonetheless contributes to extremist discourse.
