Billionaire George Soros said he will commit $1 billion to start a global university to fight authoritarian governments and climate change, calling them twin challenges that threaten the survival of our civilization.
The Open Society University Network will offer an international platform for teaching and research, the 89-year-old said Thursday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The university will be launched through a partnership of the Soros-backed Central European University and Bard College.
As a long-term strategy our best hope lies in access to quality education, specifically an education that reinforces the autonomy of the individual by cultivating critical thinking and emphasizing academic freedom, Soros said.

There is Greta’s eco-hero. A 1% of the 1% billionaire.
Unfortunately Soros has five children and four of them are following in his footsteps.
IOWs this cancer cell had divided already.

Nazi to start school for Nazis. Film at 11.
When oh WHEN is this evil piece of shite finally going to take the big dirt nap?
And Nazi parents can send their kids to Nazi school, known to the public as Nazi Academy for superior young Aryans, and when they graduate, good luck finding a job unless the country becomes Nazi. And btw, they’d have to admit blacks and Jews, and would lose funding for tolerating the suppression of free speech and assaults per Trump’s EO. I don’t think they’d get enough vouchers to keep them afloat.
Oops. I thought this was a continuation of the debate on school choice.
Scumbag.
These are “die-versity” Nazis. They take all colors, creeds, and perversions so long as they all spew the same ideology.
For sure. It sickens me he still breaths.
