George Soros and BLM?

The funny thing is that "whipping the liberal mob into a frenzy" is a literal thing that happened this year that resulted in riots, looting, civil unrest and a full on "autonomous zone" in Seattle.

To my knowledge, the only real harm the Tea Party accomplished was rolling back environmental/emissions regulations.




So you don't think those riots, looting, civl unrest etc had anything to do with the militarization of police and the lack of accountability of law enforcement and public officials in general? Not a response to the George Floyd incident or the countless other incidents that are shockingly similar? Just a random media driven mob out there protesting things that don't actually reflect reality?

Because that is what a "whipped up mob" is. Not angry citizens demanding responsible and accountable law enforcement and action toward that end from their elected officials and unelected police forces.


Just to get this straight, you believe the BLM movement was started by George Soros, but it grew out of his control?

I... hm. I don’t think that quite sounds right.


LOL George Soros. It's like hearing someone who still believes in the Tooth Fairy.
