'''David Icke''' (last name pronounced the same as "Ike") is a prolific British author who believes that international finance and governments are run by [[The Reptilians|interdimensional lizards]] who subsist on human suffering. He started his career as a goalkeeper for Coventry, retired young due to injuries and arthritis, spent several years as a successful BBC sports presenter, briefly claimed to be Jesus, or something of that sort, and then [[Sarcasm Mode|returned to his senses]] and started writing on the conspiracy by [[Half-Human Hybrid|Half Human Hybrids]] in our governments and banks to keep us all slaves of extradimensional lizards.
 
It's easy to make fun of him, but he might be onto something. After all, Nancy Pelosi and Donald Trump were very obviously hatched from eggs, and no one has ever held le Baron de Rothschild down for long enough to extract a DNA sample. You don't really think the Bilderberg Group, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, and the International Monetary Fund are working in '''your''' best interests, do you? (''hint:'' Of course they're not. You don't need to be a conspiracy theorist to realize those organisations' goals are to favor the socio-economic agenda they think will be more favorable to them and theirs. Human nature doesn't need evil lizards to make it act bastardly.)
 
Though David Icke is all but ignored by the mainstream, his theories have inspired many cult film and comic hits. ''[[The Invisibles]]'' retains much of Icke's cosmology and terminology, and ''[[The Matrix]]'' shows some clear influences from both. [[Ultimate Marvel]]'s version of the Skrulls, the Chitauri, are taken from Icke's theories. Though theories about [[Ancient Astronauts]] go back as far as [[Older Than They Think|4000BC in the ''Rig Veda'']], Icke has revitalized the genre. References to his works are pervasive on conspiracy and UFO forums. [http://www.metahistory.org/ MetaHistory.org] raises it almost to the level of religion, weaving Ickian (Icky?) cosmology with ancient Christian [[Gnosticism]].
 
He also has DVDs and hundreds of hours of radio programming. His personal website can be found [http://www.davidicke.com/ here], but be ye warned - here there be <s>dragons</s> Reptilians.
Line 30:
* [[Half-Human Hybrid]]
* [[Human Sacrifice]]: On a truly massive scale; wars are rituals conducted to brainwash humans into dying for their Reptilian overlords.
* [[Long Title]]: ''Tales from the Time Loop: The Most Comprehensive Expos of the Global Conspiracy Ever Written and All You Need to Know to Be Truly Free''
* [[The Mockbuster]]: What, [[V (TV series)||reptilian aliens are disguising themselves as high-profile humans and trying to take over the world?]] Oh yeah, that's ''real'' original, Icke.
* [[The Multiverse]]
* [[New World Order]]: The Reptilians are trying to establish a totalitarian planetary government by Hegelian dialectic. Problem-reaction-solution techniques manipulate humanity with fear and by preying on their darkest instincts, causing them to engineer the chains of their own servitude.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: At least, how he sees himself. [http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2001/mar/17/features.weekend Compared to some of his critics], he might even be right.
* [[Persona Non Grata]]: The Australian government cancelled his visa in 2019 ahead of a planned speaking tour due to his outspoken antisemitism, following complaints by Jewish groups were none too pleased with Icke's portrayal of them.
** A number of companies have also banned his works, such as the Canadian book retailer Indigo Books and Music who pulled Icke's works from their catalogue, as well as social media sites [[Facebook]], [[Twitter]] and [[YouTube]] who terminated Icke's accounts in 2020 following concerns about potentially dangerous misinformation on the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]. Ironically enough, while [[The Other Tropes Wiki]] banned [[Alex Jones]] from ever having an article as the site's [[Censorship Bureau]] deemed him untropeable, Icke's article on said wiki remains.
* [[Physical God]]: Averted. For all their astral power, the Reptilians require dolls like the alien Greys or hybrid human hosts in order to interact with the material plane.
** [[Fridge Logic|...Wait a minute]]. If they're not material, how can they be reptilian?
