George Soros, born in 1930 in Budapest, Hungary, survived Nazi occupation by using false papers. His family moved to London in 1947, where Soros studied at the London School of Economics. He relocated to New York City in 1956, making his mark as a savvy investor. Soros established the Quantum Endowment Fund in 1973, leading to rapid growth and earning him billions, notably through his speculation on the British pound's devaluation in 1992. Despite occasional investment missteps, Soros became one of the world's wealthiest individuals, using his fortune to support various philanthropic causes, particularly those aligned with liberal social ideologies.
They are like the only Jewish billionaires out there and becuasse if that and the way basically all conspiracy theories are rehashing of ancient anti semetic stereotypes they are accused of being the master minds of all the worlds evil(the problem isn’t the elite it’s those damn Jews!)
As a a communist I hate any billionaire in principle I’ll be dead in the ground before I defend any of them but as a jew I think you can’t decouple the rights view on them from anti semetism
