Abstract
The backdrop of a fragmented and disfigured public sphere in the context of social networks and platforms constitutes the ideal breeding ground for different forms of anti-Semitism. Anti-Jewish prejudice thus becomes one of the poles of the disinformation, post-truth and conspiracy circuit that has undergone an impressive surge of online content in the past decade. Within this context, the article examines the online anti-Semitism of some Italian sites by highlighting the traditional frameworks of offline anti-Semitism and the difficulty of combating it due to the network’s own characteristics. The democratic restrictions on the use of anti-Semitic formulas, language and rhetoric fail on the net where anti-Semitism acquires currency and normalization.
