It makes an absolute farce out of the administration. It's supposed to look stupid by contrasting dumb costumed protesters with an armed to the teeth military. It's supposed to make you say "wait, Trump's really calling the national guard as backup for a bunch of losers in frog costumes?" Trump wants a violent pushback to exist so badly for an excuse to crack down, and this tactic denies it to him while visually combating his propaganda.
All in one location, maybe. Across 2600 locations? . . . Hardly. Do you honestly think a protest organized against communism across 2600 locations of our choosing would draw fewer in total? I thought not!
Not dwelling on it. Just making fun of the absurdity of it. George Soros paying people to protest isn’t really a “protest”… is it? Nah, I didn’t think so, either.
Any evidence of over 7 million people being paid, or is this just the usual blaming wealthy Jewish people Republicans jump to?
Poor misdirection on your part. As far as I can tell, this has absolutely nothing to do with Soros being Jewish (I mistakenly assumed Soros was a Greek name; sure sounds it), and has everything to do with him being a meddling progressive.
Just one of many stories about Soros funding a lot of this Leftist crap: Soros foundations helping fund anti-Trump 'No Kings' protests nationwide Fri, October 17, 2025 at 8:17 AM PDT FIRST ON FOX: George Soros’ foundations are funding the "No Kings" protests that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and tens of thousands of protesters will be participating in on Saturday. Soros, a billionaire investor and notorious Democratic Party donor, is founder of the Open Society Foundations. In 2023, the foundation, through the Open Society Action Fund, issued a two-year grant of $3 million to the Indivisible organization. The grant was "to support the grantee's social welfare activities," according to the Open Society Foundation's website. Indivisible is "managing data and communications with participants" for the "No Kings" protests that will be taking place in Washington and across the country. Per the Open Society Foundations' website, Soros "has given away more than $32 billion of his personal fortune" to the foundations. His son Alex serves as chairman of the board. According to the Indivisible organization's website, Ezra Levin is the executive co-director behind the group. Leah Greenberg, Levin's wife, serves as the other executive co-director. Greenberg formerly served as the policy director for the Tom Perriello for Governor of Virginia campaign. Perriello was the executive director for the Open Society Foundations from October 2018 to July 2023, furthering the ties between Soros and the Indivisible organization. In 2017, Indivisible received a $350,000 grant from Tides Advocacy, a group affiliated with the Tides Network. The Tides Foundation, a foundation also affiliated with the Tides Network, has been accused of funding anti-Israel campus riots. The grant report for 2024 was not available on the IRS' nor the Open Society Foundations' websites, though Soros' foundations have awarded grants to Indivisible every year since the organization's conception in 2017. In total, the Open Society Foundations have awarded $7.61 million in grants to the group behind the "No Kings" protest. "We support a wide range of independent organizations that work to deepen civic engagement through peaceful democratic participation, a hallmark of any vibrant society and a right protected by the Constitution," a spokesperson for the Open Society Foundations told Fox News Ditigal. "Our grantees make their own decisions about their work, consistent with the law and the terms of their grant agreements." Fox News Digital reached out to Perriello, the Indivisible group, and the Tides Network but did not receive responses in time for publication.

Ted Cruz, R-Texas, was the first to sound the alarm on ties between Soros and the "No Kings" protest during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday, saying "There's considerable evidence that George Soros and his network are behind funding these rallies, which may well be riots all across the country." Cruz introduced the Financial Underwriting of Nefarious Demonstrations and Extremist Riots (STOP FUNDERs) Act in July that would allow for the Department of Justice to impose Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges against individuals behind the funding of "violent" and "extreme" protests. "This politicized march is being organized by Soros operatives and funded by Soros money. No one denies these basic facts," Cruz told Fox News Digital. "The Trump administration and the Republican Congress are committed to countering this network of left-wing violence." Per the Indivisible website, "On October 18, millions of us are rising again" to protest in an effort to paint President Donald Trump as a tyrant and an authoritarian king. Republicans Fume As Democrats Block 9Th Gop Bid To Reopen Government Schumer announced on Thursday that he would be attending the protest, saying he "will join the marchers, to celebrate what makes this country so great" and encouraged peaceful demonstrations. A statement from the Open Society Foundations website says that they don't pay, train, or coordinate protesters, and that "the Open Society Foundations oppose all forms of violence, including violent protests." "Protests can be strenuous and intense," the "How to Prepare for a Protest" section of the Indivisible website reads. "They are most effective when we peacefully use our constitutionally protected rights of assembly and speech and properly prepare ahead of time," the website continued. https://www.aol.com/articles/soros-foundation-helping-fund-anti-151700736.html
Here's an article from the ADL in 2018. It's an interesting little time capsule that demonstrates the Overton window shift of the last 10 years. What was fringe, alt-right, far-right, extremist, etc. back then is quite clearly mainstream now. https://www.adl.org/resources/article/antisemitism-lurking-behind-george-soros-conspiracy-theori The Antisemitism Lurking Behind George Soros Conspiracy Theories Hungarian Jewish billionaire, philanthropist and Holocaust survivor George Soros is widely recognized for funding progressive political and social causes, usually through grants made by his Open Society Foundations. As a result, Soros has become a lightning rod for conservative and right-wing groups who object to his funding of liberal causes. In far-right circles worldwide, Soros’ philanthropy often is recast as fodder for outsized conspiracy theories, including claims that he masterminds specific global plots or manipulates particular events to further his goals. Many of those conspiracy theories employ longstanding antisemitic myths, particularly the notion that rich and powerful Jews work behind the scenes, plotting to control countries and manipulate global events. The right-wing government of Viktor Orbán in Hungary have attacked Soros for years, claiming that he seeks to undermine Hungary’s national ethos. The vehemence of the anti-Soros campaigns is chilling. For example, a slew of posters that appeared in Budapest last summer reminded many observers of Nazi-era propaganda used to stir up hatred and violence against Jews. However, such anti-Soros activity is not unique to Hungary. Soros long has been a punching bag of authoritarian regimes across Eastern Europe where resentment lingers for his work to build democratic institutions and governments after the fall of the Iron Curtain. And voices in some liberal democracies like Israel cast Soros as a central figure trying to undermine the national interest. In the United States, Soros long has been a favored target of the so-called alt right and other right-wing extremists. Their online echo chambers reverberate with conspiracies about Soros, accusing him of attempting to perpetrate “white genocide” and push his own malevolent agenda. In a report published earlier this year that analyzed antisemitic speech on Twitter, ADL found that Soros figured prominently in a significant number of antisemitic tweets. One noteworthy allegation claimed that Soros was responsible for the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in August 2017 in Charlottesville, Va. Other tweets referred to his Jewish heritage in pejorative terms and claimed that he’s trying to undermine all of Western civilization. More recently, we have seen conspiracy theories surface that blame Soros of funding protests against the appointment of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. A series of hateful posters on this topic were plastered on colleges campuses, all part of a campaign engineered by the neo-Nazi Daily Stormer website. And just this week anti-Muslim advocate Frank Gaffney sent an e-mail blast to his supporters asking, “Is George Soros the anti-Christ?” and suggesting that his record “is one of such malevolence and destruction that he must at a minimum be considered the anti-Christ’s right-hand man.” But it's been equally troubling to see claims of Soros-driven conspiracies move into the mainstream. Even if unintentional, politicians and pundits repeating these unsubstantiated conspiracies essentially validate the same hateful myths propagated by antisemites. A person who promotes a Soros conspiracy theory may not intend to promulgate antisemitism. But Soros’ Jewish identity is so well-known that in many cases it is hard not to infer that meaning. This is especially true when Soros-related conspiracy theories include other well-worn antisemitic tropes such as control of the media or banks; references to undermining societies or destabilizing countries; or language that hearkens back to the medieval blood libels and the characterization of Jews as evil, demonic, or agents of the antichrist. Even if no antisemitic insinuation is intended, casting a Jewish individual as a puppet master who manipulates national events for malign purposes has the effect of mainstreaming antisemitic tropes and giving support, however unwitting, to bona fide antisemites and extremists who disseminate these ideas knowingly and with malice.
Puh-leeeeze don't try to throw the "anti-Semitism" card out there! You're a pro-Hamas supporter, so anything you say about anti-Semitism is, well, garbage.. plain and simple.
What you wrongfully think of me has no bearing on whether or not you're spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories. It's not like I wrote that article.
