The term Satanic elite refers to a conspiracy theory that posits the existence of a secretive, powerful group of individuals who allegedly practice Satanism and manipulate global events for their own nefarious purposes. This theory often intertwines elements of occultism, anti-Semitism, and anti-elitism, asserting that this elite controls various institutions, including governments, financial systems, and media outlets. The concept is not rooted in factual evidence and is widely dismissed by scholars and researchers as a baseless conspiracy. In Hebrew, the term can be translated as האליטה השטנית. Similar phrases in other languages include élite satanique in French, satánista elit in Hungarian, and satánica élite in Spanish. The idea of a Satanic elite has been perpetuated through various forms of media, including literature, films, and online forums, often serving to fuel distrust in established authorities and institutions.
