Any time paranoid right wingers post a picture of a guy who they claim "literally owns [insert social movement that they patently do not own]", it's George Soros.

He's the backbone of just about every right-wing conspiracy that leftism is an entirely astroturfed thing, almost entirely because he's a rich Jewish person.
According to the people who have brains smooth enough to follow this, protests against the travel ban and against rolling back reproductive rights are apparently sponsored by him, and he hires crisis actors to stage mass shootings. (But nobody actually dies, because they're crisis actors, and it's all a leftist false flag stunt to stop American Freedom™.)

Remember when in the lead up to the 2018 midterms, there was a migrant caravan of about 3000 people directly funded by George Soros that was going to come to the US and replace all 200 million white people? And remember how incredibly hyped it was all throughout the conservative media sphere? And then remember how after the elections when Dems utterly crushed R's in the House and mostly held the line in the Senate, we never ever heard about it again, even though for weeks it was the most talked about story in America? Every George Soros conspiracy is exactly as sincere and plausible as that one.

Yes, BLM has received funding. John Cena donated a million dollars. Is there any evidence that George Soros donated the other 99 million dollars?

I know all about the OSF lol. I have even applied to work there and gotten rejected. :( He donates to a ton of causes, and as far as i can tell from some preliminary digging, he/OSF have donated $33 million, meaning that of that $100 million+ raised, he's like the largest minority stakeholder at best.

You mean like when corporate lobbying and the military industrial complex dictate American government policy, but right-wingers have absolutely no problem with it?
I honestly don't get why conservatives think it's some insidious 'deep state' shenanigans when 'liberals' or left wingers use their wealth to advance their causes, but when right wingers do it it's a perfectly acceptable manifestation of capitalism.

Not really. It shows they are fucked. I bet if BLM went to Israel he would also stop their funding which tells you all you need to know about him and I bet he's learned from the mistake he made with femen.

You clearly don't know what the fuck's going on. The police are for sure co-opting the movement to try and make it acceptable to liberals (ie, reforming instead of defunding the police) but George Soros isn't Emperor fucking Palpatine, funding and then subverting their own shit for some kind of wack, incomprehensibly galaxy brain political game. People donating to BLM-related funds are mostly the Bail Project, which gets arrested protestors out of jail, crowdfunds for small businesses destroyed during the protests, and individual black people who need to make rent.
That or I forgot to file my W2 and just haven't been getting my direct deposits from (((George Soros))), the CEO of ANTIFA LLC™, in which case, my mistake.

She is not aware of the magnitude of power wielded by Soros.
She runs off at the mouth so much about the political shenanigans of Trump but she doesnt understand the extent of the Left's diabolical schemes. Thus, truly her participation in such discussions is quite deleterious to say the least.

Interestingly, Soros has supported the transition of formerly communist countries into democracy, supported dissident groups behind the iron curtain, and has been banned by authoritarian regimes including Russia. You'd think the commie-hating right wing would love him.

Fox Nation host Tomi Lahren tells ‘Fox & Friends’ about her newest episode on election integrity, as she sits down with the women leading the way in educating Americans about the flaws in our voting system.
State officials and lawmakers from California and Texas to Pennsylvania and West Virginia are raising concerns over the threat that noncitizens on the voter rolls pose to the integrity of U.S. elections.
On "Fox and Friends" on Thursday, Fox Nation's Tomi Lahren said that the issue is most pronounced in California. "We have a voter fraud and election integrity epidemic in the state of California," she said, "I want to expose it so I sat down with the great ladies of Election Integrity Project-California (EIPCa)."
The Election Integrity Project-California, founded in 2010, is a grassroots, nonpartisan, nonprofit volunteer organization that advocates for citizens to become active participants in the electoral process, according to its website.
"Do you know you can register to vote and vote in California with never having shown a picture ID?" EIPCa chief analyst Ellen Swensen told Lahren in the latest episode of Fox Nation's "No Interruption."
"The [voter] registration form says, 'Give us your driver's license number or your Social Security, if you have one.' And if you don't, you can still register," said Swensen.
"So to say that illegal immigrants are voting is a given in this state?" asked Lahren.
"Absolutely," said EIPCa president and co-founder Linda Paine, "because when you open the door to corruption and fraud, people are going to walk through it."
Paine told Fox News that, since 2012, her organization has trained tens of thousands of volunteers to observe polling places across the state and report instances of suspected abuse.
According to Paine, they have recorded around 100,000 reports and the state has responded to none of them

even this group admits they have no idea if there are actually non-citizens registered to vote
> The one million+ ineligible registrants include inactive registrants (who have not voted in years but are still registered and can vote in any election), persons who’ve likely died or relocated but remain on the active voter list, and tens of thousands of people who have two or more registrations each. EIPCa cannot quantify how many more are ineligible due to non-citizen status or other reasons
