Alleluia: the year 2018 ends in glory. The Financial Times elects none other than George Soros as man of the year, the arch-billionaire financier of Hungarian origin who is almost ninety years old.
The London newspaper is the voice of stateless international financial power, owned by Nikkei, the Japanese company that controls the Tokyo Stock Exchange. He is universally considered "authoritative" and "prestigious". We could actually say that the two adjectives are to the economic Bible of the City exactly as a good doctor is a luminary, the thesis supervisor is a very clear professor and the expert colleague is eminent.
So, let's bow to the choice of the market newspaper and celebrate as the man of the year deserves, also paying homage in retrospect to former Prime Minister Gentiloni, ancient exponent of the ultra-left, who received him with full honors at Palazzo Chigi in May 2017. Soros' best-known creation is Open Society, open society, a non-governmental organization (ONG) financed with multi-zero sums, it's our money, taken away from the astonished common citizens with the worst speculations, pardon the most skilful financial operations. Il budget annual is one billion dollars, of which several million were spent in Italy to support pro-immigration and anti-discrimination associations.
Thank you, generous philanthropist! Yes, The columnist for Il Sole defines him as a philanthropist 24 Hours in giving the happy news of the appointment of the Financial Times. The choice, admits the FT, it's politics: “We usually choose the person of the year only based on the objectives achieved, this time we also chose it for the values ​​it represents: Soros is the recognized standard-bearer of liberal democracy and open society, ideas systematically attacked by populists". Bum, unmasked, hit and sunk!
Humor seems to have become a specialty of Confindustria's gazetteers, since they maintain without blushing that "that of the FT is clearly also a choice of resistance: Soros is pointed out everywhere in the world, among a certain public opinion, as the origin of all evil, the man who by virtue of his money and the speculations of the nineties on the lira and the pound, has the power – according to Facebook message boards and conspiracy sites – to manipulate public opinion in Europe, Americas, Lost countries of boundless Asia, forming and toppling governments, decide recessions and cause sudden stock market crashes, move caravans of migrants from one continent to another, even emptying those continents to fill others (Moses had limited himself to parting the waters for a fleeting passage). “
Good old George, on the contrary, he is a harmless benefactor misunderstood by the populist mob, a generous philanthropist, old word with a Masonic aftertaste. According to Paolo Mieli, journalist as authoritative and prestigious as the FT, behind the attacks on the person of the innocent Soros lies the usual demon, anti-Semitism. Eh no, doctor and professor Mieli, we don't fit. George Soros is not our role model, nor the man of the year for much more concrete reasons, the same ones that, in filigree, lists the Sun 24 Ore. We reassure you: We wouldn't like the man of the year for what he represents and does even if he were from the same neighborhood as us and spoke with the accent of our city. Really, It's time to stop this moral blackmail, aimed at demonizing, discredit regardless, expel the dissident from the camp without listening to and refuting his arguments.
Soros is not “the root of all evil”, but in the 90 it really attacked the pound and the Italian lira with immense damage to governments, the States, savers, the populations; liberal democracy that has become oligarchic and globalist plutocracy deserves better defenders than the former Hungarian billionaire. The open society theorized by Karl Popper is not so wide open after all. Who doesn't believe in his freedoms, basically reduced to just one, that of the master market, he has no right to be part of it, it can be repressed and defamed, starting from the stigmatization of words. Populists are terrible people, the accusation of being part of that horrible coterie is addressed to the unquestionable judgment of the supporters of the mythical open society to anyone who opposes globalization, to indiscriminate immigration, to financial power, to the privatization of everything, to social precarity, all’Europa, to the Central Bank etc. etc. Democracy is liberal in the sense that they are in charge, Soros and colleagues, a few hundred supermen, free to do what they want with our lives.
Whether FT and Il Sole24 Ore like it or not, many millions of people consider what their man of the year represents an enemy. Enemy because he behaves like one and, to paraphrase an anti-hero of Hollywood cinema, Forrest Gump, enemy is who the enemy makes. Soros is certainly not the only one, it's probably not even the worst, but whoever attacks the sovereign currency, those who manipulate the financial markets, who has the monetary issue in hand, finances population movements, wields the lethal weapon of debt and owns everything, including news and entertainment media, he cannot expect the applause of the victims. Ezra Pound was right, not all liberals are loan sharks, but all moneylenders are liberals.
What is most indignant about these people and their servants is their attempt to convince us that "they" do what they do for our good, they are enlightened and superior to us, the populace, they should therefore be honored and thanked. Noam Chomsky called them the masters of humanity. A great Italian psychiatrist, Vittorino Andreoli, evidently inattentive reader of the Financial Times, considers the current financial system one of the most evident contradictions of logic and the principles of rationality.” Certainly this economy, as a wealth management system, has reached total madness and, at least for this, it is justified that even a psychiatrist tries to include it within his discipline" (Stupid Stupid Man, page 97).
The arrogance of power has reached heights of brazenness that were unthinkable until a few years ago. The choice of the FT is proof of this. It cannot be dismissed as a joke, as the headline in Vittorio Feltri's newspaper: Soros is anything but a buffoon, Duke of Mantua not Rigoletto. Also interesting are the rumors from the sen to the apologists of the tycoon: promoter and financier of "colored" revolutions, champion of the "spontaneous" uprisings in Eastern Europe. Good news, meanwhile, for those who feared that the university founded by Soros and rejected by archdevil Orbàn's native Hungary would not find a home. Chancellor Kurz's Austria, sovereignist every other day, will be happy to host you.
The image of Soros surrounded is also humorous, under attack from hordes of cyber scoundrels “for his humanitarian activism and his liberal vision of the world”, as well as the idea that being named man of the year is “a choice of resistance” in an evil world. The partisan George, at the head of the valiant brigade of bankers, financiers and speculators oppressed by the people, it doesn't yield even a meter, as in the saga of Giarabub!
Thanks to him we know the true face of liberal democracy, of the open society and its caring waiters. As far as we're concerned, we members of the ignorant rabble, populist and retrograde we have not elected any man or woman of the year. However, we have sympathy for certain country Frenchmen, Pierre, Jean and Marie any, dressed in the yellow jacket, the vests of the revolt against Macron, il Rothschild-boy. They won't deserve the title of character of the year, but we know they are not funded by philanthropist Soros' Open Society: that's enough for us.
