George Soros: “I consider Xi Jinping’s China the worst threat to an open society. We should recognize it: It’s a different system, totally opposed to ours, diametrically opposed to ours. I’m not anti-Chinese at all. I’m just anti Xi Jinping.”
The sad things is that some people are so far gone that they’ll defend the CCP simply because Soros opposes it
As a Chinese, I agree with him. Everyone knows when the Internet restricted speech began.
My Chinese wife and I agree whole heartedly. It really bothers me that a place I have so many fond memories of is also the same place that is descending into such totalitarian, nationalistic awfulness.
It also bugs me that next trip to China I will have to delete things like the Reddit app off of my phone lest they see comments like this one.
I am chinese i hate Chinese Communist Party very much,they kill almost 50million Chinese people and they even don’t admit the cruel history
That guy’s pretty smart.
It is hard if you still have family in China. I do not want my wife’s family harmed. I hate Uncle Xi but even as Aussie, it is hard.
God bless George Soros
Not many people know that George Soros is a actually a huge advocate for human rights and democracy.
Yeah, the real turn came around 2015, with limits of parody and BS around heroes and martyrs. Such a weird situation. Unlike a Trump, Soros will differentiate between the Chinese people, and Xi Jinping’s Chinese Communist Party. Nice touch.
Says the man who crashed Hong Kong’s stock market for his own gain.
It is absolutely insane to imagine westerners agreeing with what George Soros says about foreign policy but here it is.
Globalists is code for something else.
While China has a lot of bad things, criticizing it by saying it’s different and opposed to their system is interesting. It generally does indicate any threat to American hegemony would be demonized. I kinda doubt he would feel different about China regardless of the human rights status.
Edit: Well, the downvotes were expected.
Whoa… anyone else remember the Crypt Keeper from HBO?
and that’s trumps enemy talking lol
This early backer of Facebook says something right for a change.
The best way to combat Xi’s policies is to foment a feminist and gay liberation movement in China. Leave the banking system intact though.
After all, look what the 60’s did for America!
