Thank you for the irony of this illogical thinking. To be anti-Semitic but uncritically supportive of the government in Israel is really confusing. Unless you pull back and think of the larger agenda: colonialism and oil wealth being a large part of it. Soros is free to do whatever he wishes with his wealth, just like Koch brothers; but getting money out of politics is the only way to avoid it. The problem is that given the system in the US it seems unlikely that will ever happen.
Nah, they just want a place where Jews and Muslims can slaughter each other, so they can usher in the Rapture, and then Christ will destroy all of them and Christians will be able to follow Him to Heaven.
It's because their support on Israel is rooted in anti-Semitism. Most Evengelical Christians believe that supporting Israel (god's chosen people) fulfils a prophecy that will begin the end times, beginning the rapture, and the second coming of Christ, in which case Jewish people will have no choice but to convert to Christianity.
It's not ironic or illogical. Fascist believe in ethnostates, how they wish to achieve these states depends on the political climate. Sometimes you can get away with genocide, and sometimes you have to create somewhere for the to go to, and find ways to get then to go there. There is also an undercurrent of Christian fundamentalism, many fundamentalists believe rapture can only begin when all jews return to their honeland.
Well, it could also be trickle down from the evagelical nutcases that insist there MUST be an Israel so that it can come under attack, fulfilling their efforts to cast the spell that will bring the second coming. I make fun in how I word it but.. yes, there are people that are antisemitic underneath a supposedly peaceful and loving religious cloak. It's not the Jews, as in the people, they support. It's the Jewish state which foretells Buddy Christ showing up. Not very Christian of them for many reasons, among them that they don't get to decide when god does stuff *according to their own religion*.
Why would you wish that? And can you please offer some type of counter point. There are videos of Soros admitting to helping Nazis as a child. It's bizarre to see a psychopath totally unaware of their apathy. Check it out.
Hungarian here, Moved away from Hungary years ago but I remember how the right wing Hungarian goverment was fear mongering about Soros, I've always thought it was a Hungarian thing, had no idea he was a boogeymen in the the States as well. Thanks for the video .

@@charleswettish8701 I have no idea. I know he supported a lot of different organisations in Hungary especially in the area of education . But when it comes to politics I don’t know. there was so much propaganda about him over the years that it is very difficult to tell.

@@j0j0dartiste21 it gets funnier when you find out they are now criticizing the bible for promoting 'liberal' values. Jesus provided free health care to the poor in his time. Thousands of 'miracle workers' criss-crossed the middle east providing 'miracles' for money, but Jesus became famous for doing it for free. His diatribes against rich men goes against the evangelist proclamations that wealth is a sign of god's blessing. They call their version of christianity the 'wealth doctrine'.
As a Hungarian, it was fascinating to watch how the narrative was turned around on Soros from 2010 to 2015. The first time I heard his name, people thought he would be a great contender as Hungary's next prime minister. A few years later, he became the ultimate villain trying to destroy the country.
@@TrueNoviceThere’s plenty. He’s been accused of flipping currency markets by subverting nations (making one billion dollars off shorting the pound), openly supports open-border policies and funding mass immigration of specifically low-skilled workers (in race-blind studies from the Netherlands - this devalues the cost of labor for citizens - particularly the uneducated), has funded district attorneys in major areas causing a spike in crime… If you live in an area affected by Soros’s policies - you’ve felt them. I’ve seen young black kids dead, lying on the street, at the hands of bullets. The average life expectancy within this specific underserved community has suffered a sharp drop under Soros’s policies - mostly due to rises in homicide. The news media oddly fails to report the actual circumstances happening in America in this regard. Sensationalized news headlines and emotionally gripping stories and simple three act structures and motivations to vote for in the name of “progress” have become more prominent in the post-mobile world. Then there’s Kensington, Philadelphia which is a massive open-air fentanyl market where people’s addiction needs are not met and the situation has completely spiraled out of control. Almost a million Americans are dead of fentanyl currently (1 in 35 people) and many more are currently addicted. While I agree addicts should not be demonized, there’s zero structures in place to help these people. Addiction recovery treatment programs are shown time and time again to be huge net benefit to taxpayers…the DA (Soros funded) is making already awful circumstances far worse. It’s really easy to think right wingers are just hate-filled bigots, but Soros has directly funded a lot of things which should at least be seen a contentious as they’ve indirectly lead to the deaths of people’s children. He’s either an extremely ignorant old man who keeps meaning to do well and failing, or an intelligent person doing this all on purpose. It’s obvious the latter. He’s a smart guy.
@@TrueNovice NONE! This is a great job here but is wrong about Soros' wealth being like that of most other billionaires' in having been gained by taking advantage of labo and ripping off the environment. He is most hated by other elitists because he outsmarts them in money markets. Soros is a modern day Robin Hood on a massive scale. He takes from the rich (honestly and legally) and gives much of that money to his Open Society Foundations which support grass roots involvement in politics, education and health efforts, political awareness and much more. Is Soros supposed to wait to accumulate money from other money marketeers until after the rules are changed on who can accumulate wealth and how much they can accumulate? Is he supposed to wait for governments to escape the clutches of the elites such as the military industrial complex and the Bankster Gangsters before he can donate to good causes around the world? Soros is of Jewish descent but his family members were not practicing Jews. Ironically, Trump's kids have married Jews and his son in law gets a $2 billion dollar loan from the Saudi elitist government. Why aren't people complaining about that? Viktor Orban of Hungary, ironically, received his education through scholarship donations given him by one of Soros' Open Society Foundations. Soros has helped Palestinians by financially supporting their efforts to gain equal rights which the Israeli invaders enjoy in the Occupied Territories.. Open Societies' support human rights regardless of race, religion, sexual preference, color or ethnicity. They do not condone harsh prison sentences for non -violent crimes such as the use of drug. They favor the right to use marijuana which has no serious negative effects on the individual or society and may have medicinal benefits. As pointed out, he has been accused of being just about everything - communist, Zionist, anti-Israel and a former Nazi, for example - none of which are true.Soros has stated that no country should be forced to accept migrants/refugees if they did not want to. He has never supported Antifa financially or BLM and has always stood for non-violent actions and against violence. Arthur Finkelstein's tactic of "Finkelstink" picking someone in the opposition who seems most vulnerable to criticism and then making that person the target while claiming all people remotely aligned with that target are the same is potent. "Trumplestink" is a tactic with ample clout based on fact not fiction.
It's because they're anti-Muslim more than they are anti-Semitic. Through that lens Israel is a preferable partner. Not to mention the Evangelical Christian support of Israel to help bring forth the end of days. Though Neo-Cons also like Saudi Arabia so long as the money continues to flow.

I've read a few places that conservatives may be somewhat more prone to succumbing to the conspiracy theory game. Of course, no-one wants to admit one or more of their beliefs is a conspiracy theory, but for what it's worth conservatives may be more prone to getting sucked in. Us? I dunno - usually when watching videos such as this, I get some, "send money to starving people in XYZ country" or "support ABC with $$$" or another sort. Maybe there are just pathways in liberal/conservative brains that respond to different things, so marketers (i.e., politicians and their billionaire backers) simply put the ad money where it's most effective.
Alongside the whole Soros thing, how do US political parties manage to manipulate their voter bases so easily and consistently? How do people fall for so many dog-whistles without investigating the accompanying claims? Most importantly, how does this happen so continuously in the US? It's terrifyingly sad.
The see-saw of entropy that is our two party system. It stopped being about ideas or policies decades ago, and started being some inane sporting event. And some people will win the game at any cost. And there are those who'll corrupt the system so easily with only two choices. So, the extremist Conservative need for simple minded answers practically demands lies and propaganda as anything more complicated is refused and dismissed.
@@Skeloric Some great points there.. Do you think there will come a time when working class conservative voters realise they are though of as 'losers and suckers', by their own side?
It's a whole mesh of things, not just one. The two-party system is the result of first-past-the-pole. Media is captured by billionaire interests, and Reagan's repeal of the Fairness Doctrine was a significant contributor (it also created right-wing AM talk radio from whole cloth). Reagan got elected because America's racist and afraid of change, and as the culmination of the Red Scare, which itself derives from the capitalist class protecting itself from 19th and early-20th century left-wing movements. We also have a legacy of being the ultimate destination for deeply-religious and anti-intellectual migrants from Europe.

I can remember a time when Soros was known as much too moderate a Democrat among the Left. But of course the Conservative Movement has severed ties with reality. Since Reagan.
Soros is an old school liberal, not left. Democracy and liberty. His family fled fascists and then communists. There's a reason he named his foundation after "The Open Society and its Enemies" by Popper. Totalitarianism is that enemy.
More like the insane Left has shifted dramatically away from reality and can't even tell what a woman is. They think that by renaming and "recategorizing" everything while never dealing with the underlying reasons for the present system of doing so... that life will magically create a utopian dreamland where human nature vanishes completely and we all live as one happy hivemind collectivist unit.😂😂 Of course- every time they've tried that... ANYWHERE or anytime throughout history and on any scale- it has ended in tragic misery and unfathomable cruelty, all in the name of their failed ideology. 😢
@@danielbroome5690 No, he really is *not* right wing on economic stuff. It has gotten lost these days on a lot of folks, but neoliberal and liberal really are very different. Think of it this way... Neoliberals think the market is always right and any interference (or redistribution) makes it "inefficient". Liberals think that markets are extremely useful and normally the best approach, but regulation and redistribution are required to make them work efficiently. And most liberals will admit that using markets for some stuff (like healthcare) just won't work well. The post WWII Western order (you know, the Welfare State stuff) was the "liberal consensus". So, yeah, there are some conservative aspects to liberals wanting to preserve that... But it isn't right wing. It isn't about reinforcing hierarchy
"But of course the Conservative Movement has severed ties with reality. Since Reagan." Reagan's White House was promoting Sandinista Nicaragua as the first domino which would lead to a Communist South America, when in reality it was a society trying to rebuild itself after decades of mismanagement and dictatorship under the Somoza family. Reagan laughed off AIDS, his governorship is the reason why California's mentally ill are homeless. Reality ended for conservatives when Jimmy Carter was elected, and they have gotten crazier and crazier since the 1990s.
"Conservatives not being able to handle that he plays their same game, just better." Wrong. We are not playing the same game. His game is the destruction of Western Civilization.
No, not better. Conservative benefactors have managed to brainwash the masses, voting against their own interest, have whole networks propagating their agenda. And there are tons more Right wing benefactors. They just don't like competition 😊
Question, how do you grow up under a communist dictatorship in Hungary and come out a Multibillionaire? Another thing to think about is how in those communist states, wealth was redistributed and given to whoever was most loyal.
@@dr.squash4782Miller explained in the video. 3:37 - 6:11 . If she’s not enough for you there are other sources, you could start with Wikipedia or something. Soros isn’t the only rags to riches story out there. Several of the “Robber Barons” of the industrial era were also rags to riches (like Andrew Carnegie) tales, as an example. It’s not impossible for Soros to have gathered that much wealth.
I am a Republican. I came here to learn about why people hate George Soros so much. I appreciate you pointing out all the theories, no matter how insane they might be as to why people don’t like him. Just as I imagine liberals don’t like wealthy donors to the Republican party. Conservatives would naturally not like Soro’s deep pockets. Where I entirely disagree with you is that just because someone doesn’t like George Soros doesn’t make them anti-Semitic. I don’t deny that there are people who hate Jews, but you are wrong if you think that by not liking George Soros for his political ideas and wealth makes you somehow hate Jewish people. Those issues are unrelated.
Thank you for explaining who this guy is. I'm now clear with why he is so hated by the Right. He's a nice guy with a lot of money. They hate that sort.
@whoaaanelly65 Thank you for your perspicacity and willingness to assert the truth. Your assessment is totally accurate. The wealthy, for the most part, consider it traitorous that any wealthy person should work for or donate money to help the less fortunate or to improve society. The R's are the obvious puppets of the super wealthy and by hook and by crook they are wealthy themselves.
Funny thing about this is that Soros is the only billionaire id consider remotely moral. Donating the vast majority of his wealth, and not just for popularity points like, say, Bezos. Makes me wonder if the other billionaires have a hand in all this hate.
@@katamas832Gates is a strange case. While he donated billions to help people he still gets involved deeply in politics, notably in health. He doesnt buy and offer vaccines, he buys vaccines maker then gives vaccines for free, while still profiting from the commercial side of the labs. He also has some wacky views on global warning, saying "its ok if I emit trillions of carbon because I will fund someone who will have a solution"
No. Just no. Dont let conservative conspiracies distract you and obfuscate the fact he is indeed still a vehement capitalist who has no morals besides ensuring a continuation of his position within this system. Philanthropy on that scale is a thinly veiled act of selfishness. We know it does not work, and in fact, is not completely necessary. To rely on the mega wealthy to move society forward is absolutely braindead, and one of the issues that got Americans where they are now.
The only issue is, a considerable, well-armed demographic within the US thinks the only idea of either affordable-health-care or racial justice are the very firearms they so readily toady about with.
The answer is because Soros is a Jewish billionaire. It's a validation of all of their insane conspiracy theories about minorities ruling the world and want to genocide the white race.
It's wild to think that I'd be sympathetic to a billionaire, but, yeah, the conspiracy theories about him are definitely anti-semitic and generally just insane.
you can say that the things said about Soros are antisemitic and say that he sucks because of the wealth he obtained most definitely came from exploitation
he's the lone billionaire that tells the truth. he tells the fact and truth that Wall St needs more regulation. wall st players hate this and fund propaganda against him.

100% spot on. (And that's coming from a former Republican voter)! The number of billionaires in a society is directly proportional to how unjust that society is. Billionaires should not exist anywhere - at least not until every single person has all his/her needs fully met.
The existence of billionaires is possible directly because regular people are not having their needs met. Ipso facto a healthy, functioning society cannot have both billionaires and also have all people in that society with their needs met.
You are wrong. I don't like them, but guys like Bill Gates, Elon Musk, George Soros, Jeff Bezos...etc. Those guys took big risks and or made products then earned them and their shareholders billions.

Personally I don't think it meets the threshold of an apartheid state, however on the other hand I do think that a lot of the measures are not fine. There are a lot of things which could and should be criticized, but saying "Israel is imposing an apartheid" is in my opinion black and white thinking.

He is, perhaps, naive to think capitalism can be reformed but he doesn't seem overtly malicious or harmful.
Totally agree on all of this - particularly the need to get money out of politics and on preventing a handful of people from amassing most of the wealth, regardless of their political leanings or backgrounds.
The more I dive into conspiracy theories (basically via videos like this), the more I realise just how important science education is. I mean, teaching the scientific method, not just what happens if you pour a strong base into a strong acid and suchlike. In science, the principle of parsimony is *so* important: the fewer assumptions you need to make, the more likely you are to be getting closer to the truth. Conspiracy theories contradict that principle: anyone who has ever seen the price of a drink at an airport simply _knows_ that under capitalism, companies and entrepreneurs will seek to maximise profits, and anyone who has _ever_ seen anyone reaping the benefits of position knows that folks who have power/influence tend to use it to further their agendas, whatever those might be. Wouldn't you? I'm not talking about abusing power (some people will, no doubt), but things as innocuous as getting folks to actually listen to what you have to say. There's a dynamic there plain for all to see: most folks will try to make their own lives as good as can be, occasionally ignoring the costs to others, and folks who have the power to do so will tend to spread their goals to the societal level. There's no need for conspiracies, just stuff you can see every day. Assuming that there "must be" conspiracies that do what such a system would do naturally is bonkers. I don't trust Soros either: he's still a very, very rich man, and you don't get there without exploiting someone along the way. Plus, who elected him, who's he accountable to? But that's just being a rich man, and Soros is way more likeable than, say, Musk.
*Cliff notes on the history of Judaism.* • The siege of Jerusalem of 70 CE by the emerging Roman Empire *(Europeans)* which culminated in the destruction of Jerusalem, and Caused the Jewish Diaspora. Thousands of Jewish prisoners of war were brought from Judea to Rome, where they were sold into slavery (not Egyptians). • In 313 CE, in the Edict of Milan, Emperor Constantine *(European)* legalized Christianity and allowed for freedom of worship throughout the empire. But he initiated an increasingly hostile policy toward the Jews, restricting many of their activities. • Anti-Jewish prejudices resulted in Jews being expelled from most areas in Western and Central Europe *(Europeans)* beginning in the 12th century. Jews were driven from their homes and fled eastward, especially to the more tolerant kingdom of Poland-Lithuania, whose rulers promised Jews safety. • Martin Luther *(European)* hoped that tolerance would persuade the Jews to convert, but when they did not embrace his reformation form of Christianity, Luther lashed out in his 1543 vitriolic treatise, Concerning the Jews and Their Lies. His views are not original and represent much of Christian thought at this point in time. Recent historical studies have focused on Luther’s influence on modern antisemitism. • France was the first *European* country to emancipate Jews in 1791, guaranteeing equality to all citizens, regardless of their religion. To the Jews this meant, full citizenship without any conditions. • By the early 1800's, New nationalist ideologies further led to the rejection of Jews as unwanted foreigners, not citizens. A significant sector of the French *(European)* population was predisposed to believe the worst about even a highly assimilated Jew. Despite being the most democratic country in Europe, deep-rooted antisemitism prevailed. Theodor Herzl, a Jewish journalist from Vienna and founder of political _Zionism,_ witnessed French mobs shouting “Death to the Jews!” • In Imperial Russia *(Eastern European)* where _most of the European Jewish population lived,_ the Tsarist government required Jews to settle only in a certain area of Russia, the so called “Pale” of Settlement. Here, in the areas Russia had taken over after the partition of Poland in the late 18th century, most Jews lived in great poverty, crammed into towns often making up the majority of the inhabitants. • In 1859, the British *(European)* scientist Charles Darwin published a book called The Origin of the Species in which he said that all life on earth had evolved over millions of years. Some people (Social Darwinists) misused Darwin’s idea to claim that humans had evolved into distinct groups or races. They thought that white Europeans or the so-called Aryan race were superior to all other groups, and that Jews were a separate inferior Semitic race. • Post WW1,"That Austrian Captain" *(European)* believed all of the lies that had ever been made about Jews since the early days of Christianity. He believed that Jews were the greatest threat to the so-called Aryan race, and that either the German people would defeat the Jews or be destroyed by what he saw as a Jewish Communist menace. In Mein Kampf (1925), he accused the Jews of conducting an international conspiracy to control world finances, controlling the press, inventing liberal democracy, as well as spreading Marxist socialism, promoting prostitution and vice, and using culture to spread disharmony. Hitler demonized Jews by referring to them as parasites, maggots, eternal blood suckers, and the destroyers of Aryan humanity. • We all pretty much know what happened during WW2, by the Germans *(Europeans).* This accelerated the Jewish diaspora towards North America as well. • Concurrently, Theodor Herzl's Zionist movement was making inroads with the Global Colonizer Great Britain *(European)* to establish some Jewish homeland. Kenya, a British colony was reviewed, visited, and found not to be sufficient. • At some point, the Zionist agreed to take the lands of then Palestine, a British *(European)* "spoil-of-WW1" colony that was formerly under the Ottoman Empire, as their new homeland. The key takeaways are how the narratives of Protestant Martin Luther, Charles Darwin, and that "guy" from Austria *(ALL European)* manipulated Human behavior. And how we are all, including the Jewish descendant Diaspora of current Israel and other nations - specifically America - have embraced the same narrative, but focus it on others [think: Arabs/Asians] . Which seems irrational considering all of their troubles were created by *_Europeans._* Us humans will be human. Unfortunately. Sidebar: I could go back to 722 BCE, the Assyrians (Asians), under Sargon II, successor to Shalmaneser V, who conquered the Kingdom of Israel, where many Israelites were deported to Mesopotamia. This is where The Jewish proper diaspora began with the Babylonian exile in the 6th century BCE. I am more than open to correction of the above.
Thank you Leeja for another informative video. I've got so much to comment about..but I'm too busy shaking my head in disgust. To you and your videos I give high marks, my disgust stems from how society is being manipulated from bought-off politicians and slanted "news(?)" organizations. So much to say but instead I'll get on my knees and pray that people learn to take the "difficult route" (by thinking independently) other than joining a hate filled and fear based bandwagon ..to get educated on current events. Anyway, great job and thank you for what you do.
Take ALL large donations out of ALL US politics. Any donation over a couple hundred dollars by a single person should be banned. Let small money real grass roots led people have the power. That would hurt Repugnicans every bit as much, or maybe more than Dems. Big money holds wayyyyyyy too much sway in US politics. Repugnicans would never accept that.
@@chris135x They are, and have shown themselves over and over again to be repugnant traitorous people. If you are going to cry about the facts, tell them to less traitorous and despicable.

If you can't see them, in this day and age, for who they are, despicable repugnant people, then I do not know what it would ever take to get you to open your eyes.
“Anti semitism” gets thrown around when you don’t like being criticized. There’s a reason he is hated worldwide wide. Just because he’s a democrat doesn’t mean you feel the need to defend him…
Regardless of political orientation it's always bad when a few people get so wealthy and powerful to finance highly idiosyncratic agendas. It's also completely legitimate to oppose tactics that you have no scruples using yourself when used by the enemy . This is a winner take all struggle.
Defamation cases are a lot harder to win than you think. News organizations have a lot of special protections which makes it even easier for them to get away with it than for an individual to get away with it, they also have lawyers and advisers to make sure they circumvent the law in the right way. Some common tactics the news uses are abusing unverifiable opinions in their articles as an unverifiable opinion is not something they can be sued for, like calling Soros a Jewish puppet master, or calling Trump a racist or a fascist. They also abuse omissions by including some info while leaving out critical information, like the rape accusation against Brett Kavanaugh where exonerating evidence was withheld from the initial reports to damage the confirmation process. Not only do you need to prove the news organization is verifiably wrong and that they didn't just omit but lied, but you have to go further and prove that they were knowingly doing so and that they were doing so out of maliciousness. It's very rare for news organizations to lose given the web of lobbying and corruption in DC that protects these practices that both sides use.
@@h4rdi7g3given the vast swamp of conspiratorial bullshit around him and his probably well paid lawyers he probably wouldn't lose however it may spur yet more anti-semitic rhetoric around him.
@h4rdi7g3 nah it would be a landslide in his favor. Especially if he decided to go after someone like Glen Beck or Alex Jones who still spread anti semitic conspiracy theories about him. Don't forget there followers have sent him explosives in the mail before because of them.
How do i not know more about Finkelstein already? I can't believe i never heard about the GOP (most obviously under Trump, but its been there since Reagan) "projection" being codified into a doctrinal strategy. It all makes so much more sense now. All this time I thought it was _just_ narcissism 😂. I knew it was intentional, but i didn't know who the criminal mastermind was. Now i have a new rabbit hole to pursue. 🤔😁 Thank you, again, Leeja. You are absolutely killing it.👍👍
Thank you for the irony of this illogical thinking. To be anti-Semitic but uncritically supportive of the government in Israel is really confusing. Unless you pull back and think of the larger agenda: colonialism and oil wealth being a large part of it.
Soros is free to do whatever he wishes with his wealth, just like Koch brothers; but getting money out of politics is the only way to avoid it. The problem is that given the system in the US it seems unlikely that will ever happen.
Nah, they just want a place where Jews and Muslims can slaughter each other, so they can usher in the Rapture, and then Christ will destroy all of them and Christians will be able to follow Him to Heaven.
It's because their support on Israel is rooted in anti-Semitism.
Most Evengelical Christians believe that supporting Israel (god's chosen people) fulfils a prophecy that will begin the end times, beginning the rapture, and the second coming of Christ, in which case Jewish people will have no choice but to convert to Christianity.
They like only the Jews inside Isreal because of their death-cult-end-of-days fairy tale. The ones outside Isreal they hate.
It's not ironic or illogical. Fascist believe in ethnostates, how they wish to achieve these states depends on the political climate. Sometimes you can get away with genocide, and sometimes you have to create somewhere for the to go to, and find ways to get then to go there.
There is also an undercurrent of Christian fundamentalism, many fundamentalists believe rapture can only begin when all jews return to their honeland.
Well, it could also be trickle down from the evagelical nutcases that insist there MUST be an Israel so that it can come under attack, fulfilling their efforts to cast the spell that will bring the second coming. I make fun in how I word it but.. yes, there are people that are antisemitic underneath a supposedly peaceful and loving religious cloak. It's not the Jews, as in the people, they support. It's the Jewish state which foretells Buddy Christ showing up. Not very Christian of them for many reasons, among them that they don't get to decide when god does stuff *according to their own religion*.
I wish Soros was as awesome as the bogeyman of conservative media portrays him to be. Same with Biden and the Squad. And Hakeem Jeffries. And so on.
The GOP is at root - racist. They are always looking for an AOC, or Hussein Obama, in order to trigger their root mental illness.
Me too. ❤❤
You know George Soros Turned over 🔯 to the Nazis
It would be so much cooler
Why would you wish that? And can you please offer some type of counter point. There are videos of Soros admitting to helping Nazis as a child. It's bizarre to see a psychopath totally unaware of their apathy. Check it out.

why would they the gop only wants power cause they are ...... fascists
@@j0j0dartiste21 it gets funnier when you find out they are now criticizing the bible for promoting 'liberal' values. Jesus provided free health care to the poor in his time. Thousands of 'miracle workers' criss-crossed the middle east providing 'miracles' for money, but Jesus became famous for doing it for free. His diatribes against rich men goes against the evangelist proclamations that wealth is a sign of god's blessing. They call their version of christianity the 'wealth doctrine'.
As a Hungarian, it was fascinating to watch how the narrative was turned around on Soros from 2010 to 2015. The first time I heard his name, people thought he would be a great contender as Hungary's next prime minister. A few years later, he became the ultimate villain trying to destroy the country.
propaganda is wild
No facts to support the change of opinion? Really?
Good for you, Soros is a living evil.
@@TrueNoviceThere’s plenty. He’s been accused of flipping currency markets by subverting nations (making one billion dollars off shorting the pound), openly supports open-border policies and funding mass immigration of specifically low-skilled workers (in race-blind studies from the Netherlands - this devalues the cost of labor for citizens - particularly the uneducated), has funded district attorneys in major areas causing a spike in crime…
If you live in an area affected by Soros’s policies - you’ve felt them. I’ve seen young black kids dead, lying on the street, at the hands of bullets. The average life expectancy within this specific underserved community has suffered a sharp drop under Soros’s policies - mostly due to rises in homicide. The news media oddly fails to report the actual circumstances happening in America in this regard. Sensationalized news headlines and emotionally gripping stories and simple three act structures and motivations to vote for in the name of “progress” have become more prominent in the post-mobile world.
Then there’s Kensington, Philadelphia which is a massive open-air fentanyl market where people’s addiction needs are not met and the situation has completely spiraled out of control. Almost a million Americans are dead of fentanyl currently (1 in 35 people) and many more are currently addicted. While I agree addicts should not be demonized, there’s zero structures in place to help these people. Addiction recovery treatment programs are shown time and time again to be huge net benefit to taxpayers…the DA (Soros funded) is making already awful circumstances far worse.
It’s really easy to think right wingers are just hate-filled bigots, but Soros has directly funded a lot of things which should at least be seen a contentious as they’ve indirectly lead to the deaths of people’s children. He’s either an extremely ignorant old man who keeps meaning to do well and failing, or an intelligent person doing this all on purpose. It’s obvious the latter. He’s a smart guy.
@@TrueNovice NONE! This is a great job here but is wrong about Soros' wealth being like that of most other billionaires' in having been gained by taking advantage of labo and ripping off the environment. He is most hated by other elitists because he outsmarts them in money markets. Soros is a modern day Robin Hood on a massive scale. He takes from the rich (honestly and legally) and gives much of that money to his Open Society Foundations which support grass roots involvement in politics, education and health efforts, political awareness and much more. Is Soros supposed to wait to accumulate money from other money marketeers until after the rules are changed on who can accumulate wealth and how much they can accumulate? Is he supposed to wait for governments to escape the clutches of the elites such as the military industrial complex and the Bankster Gangsters before he can donate to good causes around the world?
Soros is of Jewish descent but his family members were not practicing Jews. Ironically, Trump's kids have married Jews and his son in law gets a $2 billion dollar loan from the Saudi elitist government. Why aren't people complaining about that?
Viktor Orban of Hungary, ironically, received his education through scholarship donations given him by one of Soros' Open Society Foundations.
Soros has helped Palestinians by financially supporting their efforts to gain equal rights which the Israeli invaders enjoy in the Occupied Territories.. Open Societies' support human rights regardless of race, religion, sexual preference, color or ethnicity. They do not condone harsh prison sentences for non -violent crimes such as the use of drug. They favor the right to use marijuana which has no serious negative effects on the individual or society and may have medicinal benefits.
As pointed out, he has been accused of being just about everything - communist, Zionist, anti-Israel and a former Nazi, for example - none of which are true.Soros has stated that no country should be forced to accept migrants/refugees if they did not want to. He has never supported Antifa financially or BLM and has always stood for non-violent actions and against violence.
Arthur Finkelstein's tactic of "Finkelstink" picking someone in the opposition who seems most vulnerable to criticism and then making that person the target while claiming all people remotely aligned with that target are the same is potent. "Trumplestink" is a tactic with ample clout based on fact not fiction.
It's crazy to me how conservatives can be so pro-israel yet so anti-Semitic at the same time. Like they're just getting all the answers wrong.
Being pro Israel, just so it can get destroyed, in order to start the apocalypse, tracks with the anti-Semitism pretty well.
Conservatives don't actually like Jews, they just want Israel to take Jerusalem to accelerate their evangelical apocalypse thing.
*ALL* the answers!
It's because they're anti-Muslim more than they are anti-Semitic. Through that lens Israel is a preferable partner. Not to mention the Evangelical Christian support of Israel to help bring forth the end of days.
Though Neo-Cons also like Saudi Arabia so long as the money continues to flow.

THAT POINT!
I've read a few places that conservatives may be somewhat more prone to succumbing to the conspiracy theory game. Of course, no-one wants to admit one or more of their beliefs is a conspiracy theory, but for what it's worth conservatives may be more prone to getting sucked in. Us? I dunno - usually when watching videos such as this, I get some, "send money to starving people in XYZ country" or "support ABC with $$$" or another sort. Maybe there are just pathways in liberal/conservative brains that respond to different things, so marketers (i.e., politicians and their billionaire backers) simply put the ad money where it's most effective.
You are such a precious individual, Leeja! Thank you for your unflagging efforts in favor of social justice and a non naively better world
Alongside the whole Soros thing, how do US political parties manage to manipulate their voter bases so easily and consistently? How do people fall for so many dog-whistles without investigating the accompanying claims? Most importantly, how does this happen so continuously in the US? It's terrifyingly sad.
Rolling news that has a pro capitalist agenda and journalists who think causing trouble is fun, basically.
The see-saw of entropy that is our two party system.
It stopped being about ideas or policies decades ago, and started being some inane sporting event.
And some people will win the game at any cost.
And there are those who'll corrupt the system so easily with only two choices.

@@Skeloric interesting 🤔
@@Skeloric Some great points there.. Do you think there will come a time when working class conservative voters realise they are though of as 'losers and suckers', by their own side?
It's a whole mesh of things, not just one. The two-party system is the result of first-past-the-pole. Media is captured by billionaire interests, and Reagan's repeal of the Fairness Doctrine was a significant contributor (it also created right-wing AM talk radio from whole cloth).
Reagan got elected because America's racist and afraid of change, and as the culmination of the Red Scare, which itself derives from the capitalist class protecting itself from 19th and early-20th century left-wing movements.
We also have a legacy of being the ultimate destination for deeply-religious and anti-intellectual migrants from Europe.

I can remember a time when Soros was known as much too moderate a Democrat among the Left.
But of course the Conservative Movement has severed ties with reality. Since Reagan.
Soros is an old school liberal, not left. Democracy and liberty. His family fled fascists and then communists.
There's a reason he named his foundation after "The Open Society and its Enemies" by Popper. Totalitarianism is that enemy.
More like the insane Left has shifted dramatically away from reality and can't even tell what a woman is.
They think that by renaming and "recategorizing" everything while never dealing with the underlying reasons for the present system of doing so... that life will magically create a utopian dreamland where human nature vanishes completely and we all live as one happy hivemind collectivist unit.😂😂
Of course- every time they've tried that... ANYWHERE or anytime throughout history and on any scale- it has ended in tragic misery and unfathomable cruelty, all in the name of their failed ideology. 😢
He is socially centre-left (from a global pov), but he's economically right-wing.
@@danielbroome5690 No, he really is *not* right wing on economic stuff. It has gotten lost these days on a lot of folks, but neoliberal and liberal really are very different.
Think of it this way... Neoliberals think the market is always right and any interference (or redistribution) makes it "inefficient". Liberals think that markets are extremely useful and normally the best approach, but regulation and redistribution are required to make them work efficiently. And most liberals will admit that using markets for some stuff (like healthcare) just won't work well.
The post WWII Western order (you know, the Welfare State stuff) was the "liberal consensus". So, yeah, there are some conservative aspects to liberals wanting to preserve that... But it isn't right wing. It isn't about reinforcing hierarchy
"But of course the Conservative Movement has severed ties with reality. Since Reagan." Reagan's White House was promoting Sandinista Nicaragua as the first domino which would lead to a Communist South America, when in reality it was a society trying to rebuild itself after decades of mismanagement and dictatorship under the Somoza family. Reagan laughed off AIDS, his governorship is the reason why California's mentally ill are homeless. Reality ended for conservatives when Jimmy Carter was elected, and they have gotten crazier and crazier since the 1990s.
Conservatives not being able to handle that he plays their same game, just better.
"Conservatives not being able to handle that he plays their same game, just better." Wrong. We are not playing the same game. His game is the destruction of Western Civilization.
And is not out to intentionally oppress/take away legal protections for any of his own countries citizens for not being heterosexual and white.

I am a Republican. I came here to learn about why people hate George Soros so much. I appreciate you pointing out all the theories, no matter how insane they might be as to why people don’t like him. Just as I imagine liberals don’t like wealthy donors to the Republican party. Conservatives would naturally not like Soro’s deep pockets. Where I entirely disagree with you is that just because someone doesn’t like George Soros doesn’t make them anti-Semitic. I don’t deny that there are people who hate Jews, but you are wrong if you think that by not liking George Soros for his political ideas and wealth makes you somehow hate Jewish people. Those issues are unrelated.
No, some do say that Jew Soros. For many, it is an issue.
Thank you for explaining who this guy is. I'm now clear with why he is so hated by the Right. He's a nice guy with a lot of money. They hate that sort.
@whoaaanelly65 Thank you for your perspicacity and willingness to assert the truth. Your assessment is totally accurate.
The wealthy, for the most part, consider it traitorous that any wealthy person should work for or donate money to help the less fortunate or to improve society.
The R's are the obvious puppets of the super wealthy and by hook and by crook they are wealthy themselves.
A nice guy? Okay then
Funny thing about this is that Soros is the only billionaire id consider remotely moral. Donating the vast majority of his wealth, and not just for popularity points like, say, Bezos. Makes me wonder if the other billionaires have a hand in all this hate.
A lot of billionaires you can see the trail of financial benefits from their political donations. In the case of Soros I'm not seeing it.
It’s as if he’s familiar with the Bible’s statements about what one is supposed to do with uncommon wealth - as in it’s given to help people…
I'd say Bill Gates is around that as well from what I know of him.
@@katamas832Gates is a strange case. While he donated billions to help people he still gets involved deeply in politics, notably in health.

No. Just no. Dont let conservative conspiracies distract you and obfuscate the fact he is indeed still a vehement capitalist who has no morals besides ensuring a continuation of his position within this system. Philanthropy on that scale is a thinly veiled act of selfishness. We know it does not work, and in fact, is not completely necessary. To rely on the mega wealthy to move society forward is absolutely braindead, and one of the issues that got Americans where they are now.

The only issue is, a considerable, well-armed demographic within the US thinks the only idea of either affordable-health-care or racial justice are the very firearms they so readily toady about with.
Doesn't spend all his money spreading hate towards minorities. Or wanting to exclude them from society.
I wish I had a Soros under my bed to whisper sweet nightmares to help me sleep.
I can’t wait to watch this later. I need to know the answer. If it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t even know the name George Soros!

it breaks my heart all over again when suddenly my city is mentioned for the tree of life synagogue shooting. shortly after that incident, i rode a bus by the synagogue and it filled me with dread, because id been considering finally looking into conversion and reconnecting with a heritage i was separated from... but also hope at the same time, because they hadn't given up. there was a sign in the window, it said "stronger than hate", and had the Steelers logo with the yellow sparkle replaced by the star of david. years later, i still see shirts and signs with this, although less often... i think it will always break my heart again and bring back the fear i feel around simply existing as a jewish person when something that big and historical happened in my own hometown, where i have grown up and still live

Can I ask for one on what's happening to the real estate market around the world? The investment banks buying up single family homes, the way the mortgage was intended to give people a stake in America, all of it.
We have a problem. And nobody is talking about it.
100% spot on. (And that's coming from a former Republican voter)! The number of billionaires in a society is directly proportional to how unjust that society is. Billionaires should not exist anywhere - at least not until every single person has all his/her needs fully met.
The existence of billionaires is possible directly because regular people are not having their needs met. Ipso facto a healthy, functioning society cannot have both billionaires and also have all people in that society with their needs met.
You are wrong. I don't like them, but guys like Bill Gates, Elon Musk, George Soros, Jeff Bezos...etc. Those guys took big risks and or made products then earned them and their shareholders billions. The fact that you or I don't like them it is irrelevant. The superrich that that DONT deserve it are the scumbag politicians that go to Washington, and within a few years are magically and unfathomably wealthy. The make their millions by keeping up divided and selling us out.
Absolutely! Thank you. 😊

Is it just a dream that money will be taken out of politics? ✨
Idk I hope not!!!
I have sent several a politician who represents me a proposal for a Constitutional amendment which would ban the use of dark money for campaigns. I specifically worded it as such:
“No person who receives monies for the purpose of political expenditure from an undisclosed source, or from any other party for whom sources are undisclosed in the public domain, shall be eligible to be elected to federal office.”
So far, zero response
We could work towards an economy that can function without money.

@@dkupke With recent events happening with Hamas, I feel it's ignorant of people to just side with Israel. Israel is imposing an apartheid against the Palestineans. Hamas is terrible too. Obviously. However, the citizens lay no blame in this conflict.
A lot of conservatives have actually been moving away from Israeli support, especially on the far right, because they dislike Jews and like the extreme social conservatism of Hamas and other Islamists. A lot of conservatives have been praising Gazan policy towards LGBT people and women.
@@popcultureprogrammer2171
It isn't that simple. On the one hand you could compare some measures and political actions, but on the other hand a lot of it is also happening due to justified security concerns, not racism.
The fact that these concerns are indeed justified can be clearly observed right now. I don't think Israel followed the right approach when it comes to dealing with the issue though.
Personally I don't think it meets the threshold of an apartheid state, however on the other hand I do think that a lot of the measures are not fine. There are a lot of things which could and should be criticized, but saying "Israel is imposing an apartheid" is in my opinion black and white thinking.
@@popcultureprogrammer2171 the situation in Gaza is a result of decades of failed policy by all concerned

A nasty combination of anti-semitism and communism fear, would be my guess...
Which has been a thing since the Czar's secret police created The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion, through German fascists of the 1920-40s, to the US fascists of 1930s, to the John Birch Society and Phyllis Schlafly, into the Republican Party in 1960 and 1964, into the prepper community in 1978 with the Turner Diaries, and into Qanon when some 4chan neckbeard decided that it was time to recycle the John Birch con.
To be fair, communism should be feared...
@@PaladinJenkis Actual communism should be feared, yes. The problem is that many people in the States think that democratic socialism is communism, which is false.

Facts.
Soros doesn't care about antisemitism, for him that's a tool for gaining power. The antisemitism, according to what finally are we seeing around the world, is however, first of all in woke institutions and between woke sjw students, who tear down posters of kidnapped people, now "broadcasted" by good people and posted by "stop antisemitism". Soros doesn't care about all of this stuff.
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮👃👃
I like her too but she’s clearly wrong here. George soros is corrupt and a fake Jew just like the rest of them and I’m against trump Obama bush etc I’m neither democrat Or republican
they only hate billionaires who don't donate to their campaigns
Yes! Jared Kushner and a converted Ivanka. No mention of them anywhere.. Its not personal George, it's just business. Republicans
Bruh, the people here are doing the same thing
You're making it out that their hateful behavior makes sense.They hate everyone all the time about everything. They are angry people desperate to blame anyone for their constant failures.
Yep, and if you go into their personal lives, they usually hate their family members and people around them closely, too.
But nothing comes close to the amount of hate they have for themselves. That’s what drives everything.

You can criticize both of them. Soros has done much more damage to the world than the Koch brothers ever have.

Soros needs to donate to the worst Republican politicians. Then all the other conservatives will demonise that candidate as Soros funded, and they will lose all of their primaries.

The one liberal rich guy just sets them off.
Its not like other billionaires don't do exactly the same thing. Bill Gates and Zuckerberg and Musk and all the less well known billionaires lobby and fund organisations to put their politics into institutions. Usually to the detriment of other people. Disney also helped fund the american anti gay laws. All these rich twats doing horrible things with their wealth. By comparison it seems like Soros is mostly harmless as billionaires go. Just a rich man with a traumatic past trying to moderate the predations of the system that made him rich. He is, perhaps, naive to think capitalism can be reformed but he doesn't seem overtly malicious or harmful.
What he did with the British exchange rate is fucking crazy
I'm confused... If conservatives really are antisemitic, why are so many Pro-Israel? I want to better understand the conservative mindset.
Probably they support Israel because its important for their biblical end times prophecy to come true.
Maybe if it is confusing it is because she is not correct. Maybe many conservatives dislike Soros for some other reason than antisemitism. Hmmmm.
Totally agree on all of this - particularly the need to get money out of politics and on preventing a handful of people from amassing most of the wealth, regardless of their political leanings or backgrounds.
Finally, an answer to this question that I kept thinking about but ultimately forgot to research myself due to distractions

So much good stuff Leeja. Yes and yes and yes.
The more I dive into conspiracy theories (basically via videos like this), the more I realise just how important science education is. I mean, teaching the scientific method, not just what happens if you pour a strong base into a strong acid and suchlike.
In science, the principle of parsimony is *so* important: the fewer assumptions you need to make, the more likely you are to be getting closer to the truth.
Conspiracy theories contradict that principle: anyone who has ever seen the price of a drink at an airport simply _knows_ that under capitalism, companies and entrepreneurs will seek to maximise profits, and anyone who has _ever_ seen anyone reaping the benefits of position knows that folks who have power/influence tend to use it to further their agendas, whatever those might be. Wouldn't you? I'm not talking about abusing power (some people will, no doubt), but things as innocuous as getting folks to actually listen to what you have to say.
There's a dynamic there plain for all to see: most folks will try to make their own lives as good as can be, occasionally ignoring the costs to others, and folks who have the power to do so will tend to spread their goals to the societal level. There's no need for conspiracies, just stuff you can see every day. Assuming that there "must be" conspiracies that do what such a system would do naturally is bonkers.
I don't trust Soros either: he's still a very, very rich man, and you don't get there without exploiting someone along the way. Plus, who elected him, who's he accountable to? But that's just being a rich man, and Soros is way more likeable than, say, Musk.
I wish Fox News was left wing fox is a good name
Too close to Faux (which means fake.)
*Cliff notes on the history of Judaism.*
• The siege of Jerusalem of 70 CE by the emerging Roman Empire *(Europeans)* which culminated in the destruction of Jerusalem, and Caused the Jewish Diaspora. Thousands of Jewish prisoners of war were brought from Judea to Rome, where they were sold into slavery (not Egyptians).
• In 313 CE, in the Edict of Milan, Emperor Constantine *(European)* legalized Christianity and allowed for freedom of worship throughout the empire. But he initiated an increasingly hostile
policy toward the Jews, restricting many of their activities.
• Anti-Jewish prejudices resulted in Jews being expelled from most areas in Western and Central Europe *(Europeans)* beginning in the 12th century. Jews were driven from their homes and fled
eastward, especially to the more tolerant kingdom of Poland-Lithuania, whose rulers promised Jews safety.
• Martin Luther *(European)* hoped that tolerance would persuade the Jews to convert, but when they did not embrace his reformation form of Christianity, Luther lashed out in his
1543 vitriolic treatise, Concerning the Jews and Their Lies. His views are not original and represent much of Christian thought at this point in time. Recent historical studies have
focused on Luther’s influence on modern antisemitism.
• France was the first *European* country to emancipate Jews in 1791, guaranteeing equality to all citizens, regardless of their religion. To the Jews this meant, full citizenship
without any conditions.
• By the early 1800's, New nationalist ideologies further led to the rejection of Jews as unwanted foreigners, not citizens. A significant sector of the French *(European)* population
was predisposed to believe the worst about even a highly assimilated Jew. Despite being the most democratic country in Europe, deep-rooted antisemitism prevailed. Theodor Herzl, a Jewish journalist from Vienna and founder of political _Zionism,_ witnessed French mobs shouting “Death to the Jews!”
• In Imperial Russia *(Eastern European)* where _most of the European Jewish population lived,_ the Tsarist government required Jews to settle only in a certain area of Russia, the so called “Pale” of Settlement. Here, in the areas Russia had taken over after the partition of Poland in the late 18th century, most Jews lived in great poverty, crammed into towns often making up the majority of the inhabitants.
• In 1859, the British *(European)* scientist Charles Darwin published a book called The Origin of the Species in which he said that all life on earth had evolved over millions of years. Some
people (Social Darwinists) misused Darwin’s idea to claim that humans had evolved into distinct groups or races. They thought that white Europeans or the so-called Aryan race
were superior to all other groups, and that Jews were a separate inferior Semitic race.
• Post WW1,"That Austrian Captain" *(European)* believed all of the lies that had ever been made about Jews since the early days of Christianity. He believed that Jews were the greatest threat to the so-called Aryan race, and that either the German people would defeat the Jews or be destroyed by what he saw as a Jewish Communist menace. In Mein Kampf (1925), he accused the Jews of conducting an international conspiracy to control world finances, controlling the press, inventing liberal democracy, as well as spreading Marxist socialism, promoting prostitution
and vice, and using culture to spread disharmony. Hitler demonized Jews by referring to them as parasites, maggots, eternal blood suckers, and the destroyers of Aryan humanity.
• We all pretty much know what happened during WW2, by the Germans *(Europeans).* This accelerated the Jewish diaspora towards North America as well.
• Concurrently, Theodor Herzl's Zionist movement was making inroads with the Global Colonizer Great Britain *(European)* to establish some Jewish homeland. Kenya, a British colony was reviewed, visited, and found not to be sufficient.
• At some point, the Zionist agreed to take the lands of then Palestine, a British *(European)* "spoil-of-WW1" colony that was formerly under the Ottoman Empire, as their new homeland.
The key takeaways are how the narratives of Protestant Martin Luther, Charles Darwin, and that "guy" from Austria *(ALL European)* manipulated Human behavior. And how we are all, including the Jewish descendant Diaspora of current Israel and other nations - specifically America - have embraced the same narrative, but focus it on others [think: Arabs/Asians] . Which seems irrational considering all of their troubles were created by *_Europeans._* Us humans will be human. Unfortunately.
Sidebar: I could go back to 722 BCE, the Assyrians (Asians), under Sargon II, successor to Shalmaneser V, who conquered the Kingdom of Israel, where many Israelites were deported to Mesopotamia. This is where The Jewish proper diaspora began with the Babylonian exile in the 6th century BCE.
I am more than open to correction of the above.
Impressive, very nice. Now tell me, what is the ethinicity of ~20% of American media?
So he's a billionaire (with all the ethical baggage that entails) plus he's a Jew (and all of that historical prejudice).

@@Caterfree10because he'd lose obviously
Defamation cases are a lot harder to win than you think. News organizations have a lot of special protections which makes it even easier for them to get away with it than for an individual to get away with it, they also have lawyers and advisers to make sure they circumvent the law in the right way.
Some common tactics the news uses are abusing unverifiable opinions in their articles as an unverifiable opinion is not something they can be sued for, like calling Soros a Jewish puppet master, or calling Trump a racist or a fascist. They also abuse omissions by including some info while leaving out critical information, like the rape accusation against Brett Kavanaugh where exonerating evidence was withheld from the initial reports to damage the confirmation process.
Not only do you need to prove the news organization is verifiably wrong and that they didn't just omit but lied, but you have to go further and prove that they were knowingly doing so and that they were doing so out of maliciousness. It's very rare for news organizations to lose given the web of lobbying and corruption in DC that protects these practices that both sides use.
