Wow I'm shocked that the term "ZOG" was used and that they brought up holocaust denial. Larry David is also accused of being an agent, like with his Curb episode with the Jesus painting in the bathroom.

Yeah, magnora says it is limited hangout video and I now agree. Skimming through the episode, it appears that the script was written this way to discredit critics of Zionism.

This is silly, imo.

Seinfeld reflects popular culture, so they reference nearly everything.

Many other series do the same. You could say the same about X-files or The Outer Limits. There are all sorts of possible "warnings" in all sorts of shows.

Have you ever seen a show in the 90's that referenced our Zionist Occupied Government?

No, but neither did Seinfeld...

Did you even watch the video. The actor in the limo in the Seinfeld episode literally says "Our Occupied Zionsit Government."

Fair enough, it is mentioned. But in the episode (I'm watching it now) they've taken the limo of a right-wing asshole author and the document he's reading is supposedly the real limo-owners speech he's going to give. They literally call him a "right wing Ayrian Neo-nazi" in the episode. So they're trying to associate those ideas with calling people nazis. And they reiterated the Nazi name many many times throughout the episode. A guy who is "head of the Ayrian unions" and "responsible for bringing hate-mongering and fascism back in to fashion".

Larry David talked about some real edgy stuff from time to time, that's why the show was so popular. They didn't actually discuss it at all, they just said it. I don't think this constitutes a "code", just an awareness of the world around him. But presented in a propaganda light, as if anyone who believes in the existence of ZOG is immediately a Nazi.

But the way it's slipped in so nonchalantly is interesting, and it's probably the only way such a phrase would make it on mainstream American television. But they're clearly implying that if you believe this, you're a deranged right-wing Nazi. That's propaganda, not a release of information...

So in reality what we see is a super-typical propaganda narrative, in the form of a limited hangout. Not a "code" but instead disinformation that plays off reality to be extremely effective.

You're right, I skimmed through the entire episode and it doesn't appear to be code at all. However, it is interesting how they slipped it in. I can see how the creater of the video would imply it as code by taking parts of certain clips out of different episodes. But when you put it into perspective, it was ONLY to discredit people who question Zionism.

Yup, exactly. Now you got it.

Also I just realized this particular episode is written by Larry Charles not Larry David.

i do remember that, that was some humor that I bet got them into a bit of trouble. They were trying to make fun of racist nazis that allegedly believed in such things tho but nowadays even as a joke they don't mention it

I'll give you the timestamp - 1min 16 seconds into the video ZOG is mentioned. Literally, the show SAYS "Our Zionsit Occupied Government." Go to 1 min 16 seconds.

[–]Jesus[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

1:16 gives it away.
