    I don't directly benefit from a wall being built. Students directly benefit from a promise to forgive their debt.

    Everyone knows money controls things and Soros is rolling in it. Let's not make this about racism as liberals do everything else.

    But it is possible and Soros is using this to destablize the US by destroying the criminal justice system. @Thinkformyself is a bad actor who is attempting to silence critics of this attempt by accusing them of antisemitism..

    Soros is just one factor in the attempt to destroy US cities. The defund the police movement is another.

    Except liberals always go to racism first because that usually plays well to their base.

    Right now Soros is busy delivering bricks to the upcoming trans riot, but he'll be back soon.

    Soros isn't trying to destabilize the US. That is antisemitic.

    the reason we have $$$ in politics is because of Republicans, the Dems are all for restricting $$$ from politics

    lets go back to each person can only donate so much, close the loopholes

    the right likes it when the rich donate to a repub pac, they hate it when the rich donate to a dem pac

    That's not going to fix anything. It happens all the time, people come and go of all political spectrums.

    What amazes me, is they will bitch about Soros, and still not acknowledge that we need campaign finance reform.

    We need campaign finance reform.

    Now can I bitch about Soros without being accused of antisemitism?

    no

    The conspiracy theories that you push when you bring up Soros were designed many years ago by antisemites.

    Based upon how much impact Soros has made with his financial contributions to all causes left reported, I think the Right could use a friendly benefactor as well. Perhaps Trump missed his big opportunity to do the most good. If only his ego didn't get involved, he could have used his billions to really organize and activate the Right. Wouldn't have that made even more of an impact than his failed presidency?

    They have plenty. I'm amazed you don't know their names.

    Of course, if your point was to show how much Trump sucks, i'm with you.

    The problem is not money, since it is clear that rich people supporting the right are ok to donate. The problem is jealousy of Soros, since even at his advances age, he does rule the entire world and no matter what, trump will never achieve such power.

    Nonsense. LW organizations and individuals command a huge majority of top ten contributors. Check out OpenSecrets for the details, but in general unions, particularly government employee unions spend millions - mostly to Democrats.
    There are actually limits now on direct donations to candidates; unfortunately there are so many ways around that that the laws are a joke.
    And vice versa. What's your point?

    Is it possible for a Jew to be criticized for reasons other than being a Jew? Or is criticism of someone who happens to be a Jew automatically antisemitic? Soros for example is one of the most obvious, if not one of the biggest, contributors to 'money in politics' that in most other situations, folks will bi-partisanly agree is a problem.

    ...or is it not a problem when the 'money in politics' is left-leaning?

    yes, Trump has changed the dynamic a lot and that is why the right is now upset, they had no issue when it was them getting the donations from the rich

    Republicans created the loophole with their citizens united decision

    it's like absentee ballots, they used to support them as it was mainly the right using them, now they upset as the left is using them too, Covid changed that

    I hate to burst your bubble, but the left gets far more donations from the rich.
    LOL, you're still singing that stupidity? Citizens Union benefit labor unions and other LW organizations and much as it did any RW organization; probably more since few unions back the GOP.
    I don't recall the Right EVER supporting absentee ballots other than from deployed military.
