4. I first ran across this accusation a few years back when I went to a local protest in my small city

Over TFG's family separation policy. It was very well attended for this area, a couple of hundred and I saw quite a few people who I knew. There were a handful of MAGA counter protesters there, too, with their flag and their megaphone - and they caused the only trouble by disrupting traffic at this very busy corner. I had a conversation with another woman there who had spoken with them - and she told me that they were saying that we were all bused in from New York City - the other end of the state - by George Soros. At the time I knew little about who he was, some wealthy guy, I figured, let alone his religion. And I'm guessing that half the people there, like me, had little idea who he was, either - but apparently this bigoted notion has taken off. Hate speech tends to do that among the haters.
