It’s about damn time someone in the lamestream media finally decided to acknowledge publicly that George Soros isn’t some kind of conspiracy freak puppet master. He’s, in fact, a rich man dedicated to holding this planet together by supporting democratic ideals. So good on the Financial Times for breaking the logjam and naming him their Person of the Year……citing the prominent liberal activist and billionaire as a “standard bearer of liberal democracy and open society.”“The Financial Times’s choice of Person of the Year is usually a reflection of their achievements,” the editorial board of the London-based newspaper wrote of its choice. “In the case of Mr. Soros this year, his selection is also about the values he represents.” “For more than three decades, Mr. Soros has used philanthropy to battle against authoritarianism, racism and intolerance,” the editorial continues. “Through his long commitment to openness, media freedom and human rights, he has attracted the wrath of authoritarian regimes and, increasingly, the national populists who continue to gain ground, particularly in Europe.”“I’m blamed for everything, including being the anti-Christ,” Soros, 88, told the Financial Times. “I wish I didn’t have so many enemies, but I take it as an indication that I must be doing something right.”Or, even better, doing something left. -- source link
