Following a December 20, 1998 60 Minutes interview[168] in which Soros related his experiences when at the age of 13, the Nazis occupied his native Hungary,[169] right-wing figures such as Alex Jones, Dinesh D'Souza, Glenn Beck, Roseanne Barr,[170] James Woods, Ann Coulter,[169] Louie Gohmert,[168] Marjorie Taylor Greene,[171] and Donald Trump Jr.,[172] promulgated the false conspiracy theory, which has been described as anti-Semitic, that Soros was a Nazi collaborator who turned in other Jews and stole their property during the occupation
That interview he "related his experiences" thusly:
Host cont’d
… went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property of the Jews.
Soros cont’d
That’s right. Yes.
Host cont’d
That sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult??
Soros cont’d
Uh. Not at all. Not at all. Maybe as a child you don’t see the connection but it created no problem at all.
Host cont’d
No feeling of guilt?
Soros cont’d
No.
Host cont’d
For example, “I’m Jewish and here I am watching these people go. I could just as easily be there. I should be there.” None of that?
Soros cont’d
Well. Of course I could be on the other side. I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away, uh, but there was no sense I shouldn’t be there because there was – Well, actually, (in a) funny way it’s just like in markets that if I weren’t there (of course I wasn’t doing it) Somebody else would be taking it away anyhow. Whether I was there or not (I was only a spectator) the property was being taken away. So – I had no role in taking away that property so I had no sense of guilt.
It’s a self indulgent argument, he chose himself over others. His career is an exact replica of that time period, he chose to benefit himself at the cost of others because “someone else would have done it.” It’s an irrational argument of wolves to justify their slaughter of sheep.
I don't think most humans would do what he did. Most humans at the time made a run for it, screwed over the system, did the minimal possible or turned traitor as soon as it became possible. The Nazi's had it pretty bad in terms of people being loyal. Italy basically overthrew itself as soon as it became relevant. Operations in France were never good and loads of German staff tried to kill Hitler and disarm the SS.
Many people like to point out that the superior orders defence aka the Nuremberg defence could help protect you since you're just doing your job but the defence immediately collapses one you have a moral choice. There was no gun to his head, there was no shielding of the information. He knew what he was doing was wrong and he did it. We can see now that loads of people are happy to be fired over not taking a vaccine, these are the people who are under tough times and yet they are not compliant and taking the vaccine wouldn't kill anyone under most circumstances (but so would not taking it but that's besides the point). Most people would not be happy or even willing to do Soro's job and that's not even commenting on what he does at the present.
