Jew hater and podcaster Candace Owens has been named this year’s Anti-Semite of the Year 2024 by StopAntisemitism, a watchdog group monitoring anti-Jewish bigotry. This came after Owens, a former Daily Wire employee, pushed anti-Semitic blood libels and a host of conspiracy theories aimed at Jews.
beating out pro-Hamas climate activist Greta Thunberg.
“Owens edged out Hamas apologist Greta Thunberg and terror-supporting Twitch streamer Hasan Piker for the title, inheriting the dishonor from 2022 winner, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib,” StopAntisemitism stated.
“Once celebrated for her unapologetic takes that catapulted her into the conservative spotlight, Owens was given platforms by prominent Jewish conservatives like Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro. But after Hamas’s October 7th massacre, she revealed her shocking antisemitism, leading to her departure from Shapiro’s Daily Wire and condemnation from PragerU.
“Owens’ remarks were so vile that even evangelical and conservative groups denounced her, including her father-in-law, Sir Michael Farmer. In addition, She’s been banned from countries like New Zealand and Australia, blaming the fallout on a ‘Zionist media empire.'”
“From defending Hitler’s actions in Germany and mocking Jewish fears over Kanye West’s antisemitic tweets to claiming Israel forces Muslims into segregated quarters and insinuating Hollywood is run by ‘sinister Jewish gangs’, Owens has been rightfully crowned 2024’s Antisemite of the Year.”
Owens responded to the announcement through a series of tweets, where she compared StopAntisemitism to the Black Lives Matter movement.
“Obviously I will prepare an acceptance speech for my show tomorrow. So many people to thank,” she wrote.
“The ratio under this post is incredible lol. Zionists are completely out of touch. Reminiscent of BLM in 2020 running around calling everything and everyone racist. From excruciatingly annoying, to mildly entertaining to utterly obsolete. We are all fatigued with ‘antisemitism’.”
Previously a key figure at The Daily Wire, Owens left the platform in March after making controversial statements about Israel, Jews, and co-founder Ben Shapiro.
Along with promoting narratives of a nefarious “Zionist empire” controlling global events and alleging Jewish control over Hollywood sex rings, Owens has questioned the historical accuracy of the Holocaust and seemed to defend Adolf Hitler.
“We have been indoctrinated, and we actually know nothing about the person other than the fact that we must fear him,” Owens stated in July.
During the same podcast, she cast doubt on the Holocaust, referring to it as “an ethnic cleansing [that] almost took place,” while also accusing the Allied powers of ethnically cleansing Germans in Eastern Europe.
The Allied powers, she claimed, “ethnically cleansed 12 million Germans… in the exact same [concentration] camps that we then transferred the Germans into so that we could mass kill them.”
Owens also rejected the well-documented medical experiments conducted by SS officer Josef Mengele, describing them as “bizarre propaganda.”
“The idea that they just cut a human up and then sewed them back together. Why would you do that? Even if you’re the most evil person in the world, that’s a tremendous waste of time and supplies,” she remarked.
