Improve?[edit]

Given Glenn Beck's recent obsession with Soros, it would be nice if someone expanded the article. --ZooGuard (talk) 17:37, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Go right ahead. If you work on it, I can guard the zoo for a little while. The Goonie 1 What's this button do? Uh oh.... 17:41, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

The Open Society Foundation[edit]

Still no mention of it?--ZooGuard (talk) 06:53, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

You could, uh, you know, add it. Nebuchadnezzar (talk) 07:10, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Conspiracy Theories[edit]

Does anyone have some sources on how all these Soros conspiracy theories started? I am not saying it isn't a possibility,but I am interested into seeing how he came out to be the boogeyman.-Maeve (talk) 09:39, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

I don't think there's much to it beyond he's rich and he gives money to (not very) left-wing groups. Also he's Jewish, so all the anti-Semites can't help themselves in fingering him as one of the sinister Jewish puppetmasters. --Ymir (talk) 09:59, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
While I don't know much about the origin of the Soros crankery, I know much about the perpetuation of it. Reverend Black Percy (talk) 10:13, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
When he helped to wreck the British economy thirty years ago, it was no conspiracy theory. I know ordinary people who lost a lot of money because of him and suffered as a result. That type of person should not be allowed to influence economic and political policies. Nor should he be allowed to pour large amounts of money into various cat's paws and ginger groups to try and further his ends. I don't believe funds most of these groups out of the goodness of his heart. This is *nothing* to do with him being Jewish, in fact the slimeball and his apologists regularly use that to deflect. Most regular Jewish people will have been as adversely affected by his shenanigans as anyone else has.-Albannach (talk) 13:06, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

Nazi collaborator[edit]

It does appear that Soros assisted in the confiscation of property from Jewish persons -- see https://youtu.be/Ar9EfzSnMZc?t=494 -- though this is not nearly as bad as the "Nazi collaborator" label implies. We should rectify the article. Sir ℱ℧ℤℤϒℂᗩℑᑭƠℑᗩℑƠ (talk/stalk) 00:14, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
