Original Note:

The specific use of imagery to depict a people as "bugs" or "insects" is textbook Nazi propaganda - as popularised by Adolf Hitler in Mein Kampf against the Jewish population. https://english.elpais.com/society/2022-12-04/how-nazi-propaganda-dehumanized-jews-to-facilitate-the-holocaust.html?ssm=whatsapp https://perspectives.ushmm.org/item/propaganda-poster-jews-are-lice-they-cause-typhus https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_parasite
