The progressive billionaire speculator George Soros has said he will ‘fight back’ against the “dominant ideology” of nationalism, whilst admitting that favoured globalist project the European Union is “on the verge of a breakdown”.
Wistfully writing that Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF) once ‘epitomised the optimism about the spread of Western-style democracy’ after the fall of the Soviet Union, the Financial Times described the scrutiny the global progressive body is experiencing amidst a wave of patriotism and populism and the ‘wilting’ attraction of the leftist agenda.
Soros, alluding to the collapse of the USSR, told the left-liberal newspaper: “It’s déjà vu all over again with one big change — the dominant ideology in the world now is nationalism… It’s the EU that’s the institution that’s on the verge of a breakdown.
“And Russia is now the resurgent power, based on nationalism,” Soros said.
The open borders financier blames Russian hackers for attacks against him in 2016, and the country’s government blacklisted the OSF in 2015 for allegedly “endangering Russia’s constitutional system and national security”.
The 87-year-old had considered winding down the OSF before his death but seeing the rise of the world’s citizenry against globalism and progressive interests, transferred $18 billion of his own wealth into the fund in October 2017 and pledges to stay on as chairman for another five years – or longer.
“I think you can say I’m quite lucky with my enemies,” Soros said. “It makes me feel more than ready to fight back and stand up for what is right.”

We have always been at war with East Asia.
I hope the Father of a raped Swedish girl chops him into tiny pieces with a meat cleaver.
Yes, you are right. He DOES think he knows better.
He and his like DESPISE the concept of “sovereignty” as we know it, which he likely substitutes in “nationalism” because that sounds sooooo much more like “National Socialism” to him.
Ummmmmm......
Is there another choice or are you asking this of George?
Because if you are asking me, my answer would be,
“E. I must have missed this in the assigned reading.”
Nationalism is a byproduct of the immigration policies of most European nations forces a change in what is termed European identity. Soros is an outright idiot! Given his past track record in Europe, someone needs to seriously knock him back into reality with a 2x4.
The Nazis wanted globalism too, with the uber mensch in charge.
Quite frankly, I'm not too impressed with some of the crap laws that are being passed.
Neither am I, but at least our reps answer to us.
Try moving the U. N. on a subject. Watch what is happening in Europe when the E. U. demands they open their nation’s doors to the Middle-East.
Me too. Moving it to a safe place to retrieve later or last act before others ‘move’ him to safe place?
“...on verge of breakdown.” Hahahaaaaaa. Winning!
People rarely get more twisted than this guy. Peace will grow once he passes.
