As Donald Trump's re-election looks in doubt, supporters of the U.S. president will amp up conspiracy theories about financier and philanthropist George Soros.
Competition for students paying high tuition likely makes administrators more interested in keeping students happy and safe rather than educated with politically diverse views. That, and excessive interventions like the ones at Oberlin College, ultimately give Donald Trump a target to scapegoat campus liberals.
One of the more destructive conspiracy theories circulating globally paints Hungarian-American philanthropist George Soros as the puppet master of a vast left-wing and globalist elite. Spreading lies about “white genocide,” this rhetoric is thinly coded anti-Semitic propaganda, and is moving dangerously close to the centre in political debates.
