Pro-Israel Advocate Details Eight-Month Online Harassment Campaign, Denies Cancer Scam Accusations

A prominent pro-Israel social media figure, known as "Insurrection Barbie," has publicly detailed an extensive eight-month harassment campaign, including doxing and false accusations of scamming. The individual revealed that the targeting intensified after she spoke out against encountering neo-Nazis and extremists promoting antisemitic tropes within a space she believed to be conservative.

The campaign escalated recently with claims that she is "Mary Alvarez," a person allegedly involved in a cancer fundraising scam on X (formerly Twitter). The advocate vehemently denied these allegations, stating, "I have never scammed, fundraised, or accepted a DOLLAR from a single person on this platform for ANY REASON." She clarified that her online presence has never involved selling products or soliciting funds, and she even assisted others during a period of demonetization without seeking payment.

Her ordeal began on February 14, when she encountered individuals propagating antisemitic conspiracy theories, including the "Protocols of Zion" and the "Khazarian" conspiracy, which are widely recognized as false narratives used to delegitimize Jewish people and Israel. This experience prompted her to speak out, leading to the sustained harassment. Online influence operations, often employing bots and fake accounts for doxing and disinformation, are a documented phenomenon on platforms like X, targeting various political and social activists.

The advocate reported discovering two real cancer patients named Mary Alvarez with GoFundMe pages, whom she intends to warn privately about the false association. She attributes the harassment to her pro-Israel stance and large following, asserting that those involved, despite claiming "MAGA" affiliations, do not represent conservative values. Her account underscores a growing concern about extremist elements and coordinated online attacks aimed at silencing dissenting voices.
