      It’s just some smug wojak. It’s one of the plethora of “thin beard + glasses” variants, and this one is based on Tighten.

        You’re right, looks like it’s fine. The nose really seemed like an antisemitic caricature though

            Indeed, the reason behind my suspicion (I cannot speak for OP who made the accusation) was that caricatures with unusually large noses representing Israel are often an antisemitic portrayal, regardless of whether the criticism holds true or not.

            Criticism of Israel isn’t antisemitism, except for when an antisemitic Jewish caricature is used.

        that character is voiced by Jonah Hill, who is Jewish. I’m not blaming you personally, but the image is extremely sus.

      Thanks for mentioning it. I also saw the meme and was a bit hmm, and I’m glad to see OP clarify where the format is from.

          That’s a point I hadn’t considered, thank you for highlighting it. People who knowingly make and spread antisemitic and bigoted memes leverage ambiguity and plausible deniability to facilitate their reach; it’s necessary to be ever mindful of nuances in the memes we share if we don’t want to unwittingly spread harmful content.
