Quote from Ghost of Cutten:
Soros is just a centre-left paternalist utilitarian, who doesn't understand rights-based small government American culture. He is not some kind of evil bogeyman, he's just a rich Democrat. Some of his rabid critics need to remember that he spent millions fighting communism in the 80s, sending money to dissidents and underground movements behind the iron curtain, while so-called cold warrior "patriots" from the US right-wing were doing shady deals with Ayatollahs, training Latin American dictatorships and secret police death squads how to torture nuns and homeless people, and funding Bin Laden and terrorist Jihadis, then running scared as soon as a couple of hundred marines get blown up. He also spent millions saving lives with non-partisan humanitarian aid during the wars in Yugoslavia in the 90s.
Most Soros critics are cowardly uninformed morons who never lifted a finger to fight evil or save lives. It is a sign of gross stupidity to be unable to differentiate between a reasonable person with mistaken views, and a genuine bad guy.
If Mother Theresa would have been a serial killer she wouldn't have gotten a pass for her good deeds.
Some Soros critics are intelligent informed individuals who aren't apathetic in their actions toward their community or nation. It is a sign of narrow mindedness to assume everyone is unable to differentiate between a reasonable person with mistaken views, and a genuine bad guy. One can appreciate what Soros has done in the past and it was those earlier actions that made me a fan. It is the current path he is traveling down that has me thinking he has lost his friggin mind and has to be stopped.
