That Kerry Wendell Thornley, the author of the Principia Discordia, which the Illuminatus Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson is heavily based on, was an acquaintance of Lee Harvey Oswald, and wrote a book (The Idle Warrios) about him before the Kennedy assassination. The book was about their time on an american military base in Japan undergoing LSD experiments to create unaware assassins.

I'll bet there get into the weird Oswald/Chaos Magic connection.

Oswald was pretty good friends with Kerry Wendell Thornley who was the co founder of the Discordian movement. Thornley actually wrote a book about him and Oswald in the military that was published before the assassination (its called the Idle Warriors if you want to check it out). They even had Thornley testify at the warren commission during which time he broke into his lawyers office and used his copy machine to make the first edition of The Principal Discrodia.

He also liked to screw with conspiracy theorists

Its worth noting that KWT became a victim as was driven insane by co-intel pro used to discredit him from within his inner circle of subversives. He gets lumped into the "Satanic Panic" which seems completely logical given the full story of his involvement with the early conspiracy/prankster groups he got along with. https://www.amazon.com/Idle-Warriors-Kerry-W-Thornley/dp/0962653403
Wooooo you're asking for directly non or falsifiable information and I dont usually speak in absolutes so this a hard bargain. At any given time, any given amount of agenda is being pushed by any number of groups in any possible direction or flow of information. I think millions of dollars is a stretch, many more important people than him have been marginalized for a multitude of reasons. In this case I don't think you're completely wrong, I should clear that up, however I DO think you're pushing only part of the picture. At its deepest level of the information war was Pewdepie marginalized by the JDL? Sure theres a good possibility of that, even benign jokes have destroyed larger careers, however its not like the JDL is a unknown quantity, their movements are fairly public as an advocacy group, none of that is conspiratorial really just social engineering. I do think the Netanyahu thing is a bit of a coincidence, Netanyahu has made his stance with Trump fairly clear and also Cui bono, but its not necessarily a stretch to say its a concerted effort possibly. You'll see more of this from prankster groups as they shift focus as well as the true believers of the left as more people catch on. Say what you will but there are people on Trumps administration that are connected to the right side of the true believers/propagandists when it comes to information warfare and honestly I think thats why most of the main zeitgeist will bite on the Trump as an anti-Semite narrative. There's always even different agendas when it comes to the different avenues of information/engineering/propaganda within the SUBJECT of anti or pro Semitic stances alone, that is right and left leaning. The answer is, Im not exactly sure of the absolute T truth in this situation (to use some philosophy) BUT those those are definitely two of the major narratives being pushed.
