That’s not “unknown”, that’s an antisemitic quote from neo-nazi Kevin Alfred Strom.

Do any of those qualifiers make it less true?

"To know who rules over you, simply notice who you are not allowed to criticize: capital owners". There, fixed it. As it stands the quote is supposed to make you "notice" a fantasized jewish cabal that would own the world. In reality, the most powerful sionists in America are christians.

Oh that’s hilarious because it has been misattributed to Voltaire and TIL it was from 1993

Wtf, I hate that quote now! Just kidding its still accurate: In the East you don’t criticize the party, in the West you don’t criticize one particular designated genocidal foreign army. Easy enough to follow.

I don’t think agreeing with a neo-nazi about the foundational tenets of nazism is a good use of that idiom. It’s supposed to be for things like “pickles on pizza are actually pretty good” not “we are all slaves to the Jews who control society.”
