Czech far-right youth group uses anti-Jewish trope and caricature in anti-vaccine campaign
An antisemitic tweet was posted by the youth wing of the Czech Republic’s far-right Workers Social Justice Party (DSSS) as part of its campaign to discourage vaccinations against COVID-19.
The tweet, featuring an anti-Jewish caricature, said: “We will not allow ourselves to be vaccinated against COVID-19! Those globalising bastards can blackmail us all they like!”
The Workers Youth organisation (DM) has frequently used Nazi images or propaganda in its posters, on its Facebook page and in other promotional items. The Czech Interior Ministry categorises the DSSS as one of the extreme right-wing parties. The DM and the DSSS share the same registered address.
The DSSS came into existence after its precursor, the DS was dissolved in 2010.
