An answer, finally. Do all conservatives oppose women's choice, the ACA and gun regulations? No, not really, although I give you they are platforms within the GOP. None of them seem to be on the level of "badness" as funding climate change denial, except if you are a religious nutter and abortion is it. He's also not the only person who funds these things, so it doesn't explain the exceptional hatred towards him.
Do all conservatives believe Soros is the boogeyman? Can they not oppose platforms they disagree with if they are not as "bad" as the ones you oppose? Let's not move the goalposts now.
And no, he is not the only person to fund these things of course. But, his Open Society Foundation is the second largest in the world, only eclipse by the Gates foundation. Which, given it's set up, financial backing and spread has enabled it to influence and fund things on a level not matched by many.
So while people might dislike one of these rich individuals for donating millions to the Clinton campaign, in Soros case they can see his money spread into local elections, local protest groups, local news outlets etc. It is not like he is actually sitting around coordinating each dollar his foundation donates, in some evil scheme to take over the globe. But his money has influence on a larger level than most in regards to politics, and leads those against that influence to grow an unnatural distaste for him.
Here is one
There are more that cover his expected tax bill if he so happens to pay it to near $7 billion dollars. I actually haven't seen much news about what happened after the tax deadline passed, so if anyone happens to see anything I would be glad to read it.
This is not to say he is doing anything illegal or nefarious. He is using a loophole that other rich individuals use to keep a larger portion of their wealth. But I personally am not big on 'do as I say, not as I do' preaching.
No no, you did good. You actually gave an answer to the question. It highlights how completely unreasonable the conservative hate for Soros is, but you did answer the question.
At least we are getting somewhere here. It is a far cry from your initial reasoning that conservatives hate Soros because of "supporting civil rights and democratic institutions".
No, it's not false. Their donations are protested because of what they are trying to influence, which is what I said.
Guess we will agree to disagree on this front. While I can concede your point in regards to certain donations, that is not always the case.
Protesting donations to colleges can kind of, sort of make sense. You don't want them to have influence in hiring and course criteria, which might lean towards their libertarian philosophy. I don't really see that as an issue, but I can understand how some could.
Protesting their attempts to purchase news outlets such as the LA Times for fear of any possible influence, again, I disagree with but I can at least see the argument.
Their donation to the UNCF though? The ACLU? No. How about their donation to the New York State Theatre? I saw it put forward that art institutions should reject their donations because, climate change denial. Because it could cause everyone to die. And if everyone is dead, no art. So yeah.
for any reason conservatives might not like Soros.
