GOP-linked tech company founder ousted for anti-Semitic claims that COVID vaccine is part of 'sadistic drive to euthanize the American people' by Jews
- A Utah tech entrepreneur and onetime prominent figure in state Republican politics, David Bateman, resigned from the board of the company he founded
- He sent an email screed outlining an anti-Semitic vaccination conspiracy theory
- The email sent at 4:59am was sent to a group including some of Utah's leading tech CEOs, investors and other public figures including governor, Spencer Cox
- It called upon them to 'stop the vaccination drive' blaming Jewish people for 'a sadistic effort underway to euthanize the American people'
- The Entrata board of directors asked Bateman to step down and he agreed
'I write this email knowing that many of you will think I'm crazy after reading it,' Bateman wrote in the first sentence of the email.
'I believe there is a sadistic effort underway to euthanize the American people. It's obvious now. It's undeniable, yet no one is doing anything. Everyone is discounting their own judgment, and dismissing their intuition,' Bateman continued.
He went on to claim 'for 300 years the Jews have been trying to infiltrate the Catholic Church and place a Jew covertly at the top,' stating that the effort had succeeded with Pope Francis.
He stated that that Covid and the vaccines designed to protect people would actually destroy people's immune systems.
'I believe the pandemic and systemic extermination of billions of people will lead to an effort to consolidate all the countries in the world under a single flag with totalitarian rule,' Bateman wrote.
'I know, it sounds bonkers. No one is reporting on it, but the Hasidic Jews in the US instituted a law for their people that they are not to be vaccinated for any reason,' he wrote in the email. 'I pray that I'm wrong on this. Utah has got to stop the vaccination drive. Warn your employees. Warn your friends. Prepare. Stay safe.'
