I notice the Daily Sceptic recently carried a piece exposing George Soros for using his many billions to help fund various Left-wing causes in the UK, from climate-alarmism to herding Britain back into the EU. The website needs to be careful! Publishing stuff like that, even if entirely, 100% accurate, can very easily get you accused of being a rabid antisemitic conspiracy theorist Hitler-lover.
In case you don’t know, Soros is a Hungarian-born Jew, who fled to London having survived the Nazi Holocaust as a child during the 1940s. He then moved to New York and made billions of dollars by playing the stock-market, including by famously “breaking the Bank of England” by betting against the pound during Black Wednesday in 1992 – something the Labour Government today needs no outside help to manage doing on its own.

I do wish writers would define what they mean by these terms – terms that seem to vary widely in what people mean them to mean and take them to mean. We have a whole article about the “A” word that doesn’t define what Mr Tucker thinks it means, and two example opinions, the first of which is verging on parody. Is it for example “antisemitic” to observe that Jews are over represented in Hollywood?
I find the whole thing baffling.
This guy who survived the Nazi holocaust is financing organizations that facilitate the mass migration of Jew-hating Muslims into Europe.
Also, in general, the character of the atheist / secular Jew is a mystery to me (Ben Shapiro talks about this in one of his podcasts) – these people are not just ordinarily secular but seem to tick every single box of the extreme woke-left mindset: anti-Israel, anti-Christian, anti-religious, pro-migration, pro-trans, etc, etc.
They don’t just do it – like most leftists – lazily (i.e. parrot fashionable ideas that make you feel righteous) but with a certain almost insane fervor.
Isn’t the desire to eliminate national, racial and religious differences. Create a miasma of interchangeable people &, in theory, you reduce tnter-group violence. I don’t buy it myself but that seems to be the direction of travel.
Yeah, I guess you are right, after all that was the idea of “proletarian internationalism” too, a utopia of featureless masses, the ant-society. Somebody sarcastically described it as “rather than having a colour palette, pouring all cans of paint into a bucket to create some kind of brownish-grey liquid”.
What a sad, dystopian vision.
I kind of assumed he was a KGB sleeper, with, like Epstein with info on top level deep state players, so he couldn’t be brought down.
I bet that back story is false.
Soros is Jewish and evil. Many Jews advocate the complete annihilation of Christianity and White Civilisation. I am not surprised at all, that this loathsome little Jewish gollum is at the forefront of funding those plans.
But what doesn’t make sense to me is that his idea is not just anti-Christian and anti-white but also anti-Jewish, as the people he is importing into Europe hate the jews.
So, a person who was persecuted for being Jewish promotes policies that result in increasing levels of antisemitism.
That’s the contradiction that my brain cannot process.
Unless he is indeed insane. Which of course is not out of the question.
I think he’s one of those strange anti-Zionist Jews. I always find such people and their attitude paradoxical. I mean, you get the ultra-Orthodox Jewish sects even living in Israel. How does that even make sense? It appears totally contradictory, but then I’m not very well-read on such things. I just know they’re the fruitcakes that appear at all the pro-terrorist, anti-Israel demos across Western countries, making like they represent the Jewish people when in fact they’re just a small fringe group of weirdos.
Yes, I noticed that too.
Ultra-Orthodox Jewish sects, who oppose the existence of the state of Israel.
That does my head in too. But I don’t have any insight into how these people think. I have only ever come across a few friendly, middle-of-the-road Jews who were a pleasure to work with.
But then again, my only experience of a devout Muslim was also a friendly guy who was also pleasure to work with.
I think George Soros is very simply a very bad man who has a God complex and lots of money to play at it. The people he no doubt surrounds himself with give succour to his every wish and thought, and any children he has , have been surrounded with the same ego driven Messiah complex, cushioned by their Sire’s billions.
Its nothing to do with race, colour, creed, its just a spoilt, man completely cut off from anyone not on the same financial plane, who see’s the world as his to play with.
Just your common garden bad person, he just doesn;t know he is.
Very well put. It’s a pointless exercise trying to analyse this man intellectually, he is simply a nasty person who will do anything at all regardless of the consequences. He is pure evil and the world would be better without him.
I think intellectually he is a bit dumb since he funds globalist Far Left fascism in order to prevent the rise of fascists.
A person’s religion ( and is Soros even a practicing Jew? Just because you were born to a religious family doesn’t mean you live forever more a Jew/Muslim/Christian etc ), much like their sex, ethnicity, sexual orientation etc, does not define them. So when people talk about Soros and hold him up to somehow represent the Jewish people as a whole, I call bullshit. This is typical ignorant, Jew-hater behaviour. Nobody gets to hide behind ( or use as a means of attack ) these personal characteristics as a means of tarring entire populations with the same brush, just because it suits your own personal agenda to do so. All Muslims are not terrorists ( or supporters thereof ), all trans ( MtF ) people are not perverts, etc. You judge a person as an individual because they must be held to account for their own actions. George Soros is a psychopathic megalomaniac, and whatever religion he was born into, and whether he practices or not, isn’t even remotely relevant. I don’t think there’s a religion in the world that hasn’t involved bad people doing terrible things at some point, and that’s because the complexity of the human psyche is not so that one can conveniently pop a label on somebody and pigeonhole them.
As nearly always you have summed it up perfectly
Muchas gracias, John.😺
Eric Weinstein talked about the pervasive fear of anti semitism among Jews like him (though an atheist he said he observes Passover and identifies with Israel). He said Jews feel safer where there is not a cultural majority but disparate minorities so Jews are just another minority among other minorities. Does this explain Jewish support for mass migration ?
Was it actual Soros money or was it re-directed USAID money? i.e. He has acted as a CIA front man in the past.
The article states that Soros used his millions “to ensure no second evil far-Right Nazi Party ever arises within the white West”.
However, Soros has spent millions in Ukraine which resulted in Banderites, neoNazis, paramilitaries and ultranationalists prevailing.
George Soros explicitly declares his involvement in the collapse of the USSR and an attempt to repeat the same thing in Russia.
Soros: “My first project… although the first was in South Africa… but then Eastern Europe and the USSR. As the Soviet empire collapsed, I moved in and picked up the pieces. First in Hungary in 1984, in Poland and China in 1987. So the Soros empire replaced the Soviet empire.”
Host: What are your plans?
Soros: “Now I am most involved in Russia. We repeat what happened in the USSR. But, unfortunately, there is a big difference. When the Union was collapsed, Europe was experiencing its high integration. Now reverse, we have resurgent Russia, and the disintegrated Europe. Sad situation.”
The interview was taken in 2015.

“Many people roll their eyes when they hear “George Soros” and think of conspiracy theories. But Soros’ own group – IRF or International Renaissance Foundation – admits in its 2015 annual report that it spent more than $180 MILLION in Ukraine since 1990.”

George Soros moved from pathetic words about “protecting the will of the people” and “saving democracy” to harsh statements like the following: “We need Ukraine as a torpedo in the war with Russia. The fate of the citizens of this country does not concern us at all.”

“In 2015, Russian scientists received $500 grants (two years’ salary) to rewrite history books and school curricula. At the time, Soros stated that it would take about 25 years, i.e. a generation, to create a project as successful as Ukraine. In addition to distorting the history of Russian-Ukrainian relations and denigrating the past and present of the Russian state, the foundation has successfully promoted “European values and democracy” among young people.”

15 September 2019 Ukraine, once again, offered to rewrite textbooks. This time it is proposed to remove from them all references to friendship with Russia. The Minister of Education of Ukraine Anna Novosad made a corresponding proposal during a speech in Kiev at the Yalta European Strategy forum.

Soros is a horrible little man behind many conflicts in the world.
“In a 1998 interview with Steve Kroft of CBS, the billionaire, nazi sympathiser, funder of many pseudo colour revolutions, convicted criminal George Soros admitted that he participated in the confiscation of Jewish property under the Nazi occupation. He also explained that he had no remorse for what he had done.”
I wrote this in 2013 with links to the interview which have all now been taken down by the censors at the behest of Soros.
Ffs likening Shamina Begum to Heimlich Himmler is the last straw for me. A naive schoolgirl, who has subsequently suffered horribly for her poor choices at aged 16!! including multiple dead children while living, stateless, in a refugee camp. The way this child has been treated by our state shames us all. But it is also, perhaps intentionally, counter productive. The way she has been hounded by our popular press confirms them as a revolting illegitimate institution that should be rooted out and destroyed.
I did not know Soros was from Hundary, I did not know he was a first generation American and I did not know he was Jewish. I do know it is not right for him to use his money to interfere in the internal political affairs of nations of which he is not a citizen.
I suspect he gained his enormous wealth from being clever, using good judgement, taking risks and from a degree of inside information.
I do not condemn him for making money out of the inept monetary and financial policies of the John Major government in the UK. Arbitrage serves a purpose and if his money-making helped force us out of the ERM so much the better for us. The amount HMT and BoE are said to have lost over the Major FX shambles seems to have been much less than reported at the time.
