🧵THREAD: GEORGE SOROS, THE MASTERMIND

Today's systems of NGOs isn't accidental - it was laid out in a vision 30 years ago by none other than George Soros.

I joined @MikeBenzCyber on a livestream last night, where he was kind enough to walk us through the basics.

As my bio says, I am just a tool builder. I am not a historian or academic. The information in this thread is common knowledge for many. It wasn't for me.

I want to walk you through an essay which Mike pointed me to- a chilling essay written in 1993 by George Soros, "Toward a New World Order: The Future of NATO"

The essay lays out a new mission for NATO after the cold war. NATO would no longer be a defensive alliance against Russia - that is obsolete. Instead, it would proactively go out and shape other countries into "open societies." "[𝑵𝑨𝑻𝑶'𝒔 𝒏𝒆𝒘] 𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒅𝒆𝒇𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒄𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔."

Soros re-defined peace and security not as absence of war, but in terms of how many countries are "open societies."

“𝑷𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒚... 𝒅𝒆𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒅 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒐𝒏 𝒂 𝒔𝒖𝒄𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒚.”

In other words, NATO's new mission: if a country doesn't adopt Western-style capitalism and liberalism, NATO should step in... politically, economically, and eventually, militarily.

🧠 What is an "Open Society?"

The term was coined by philosopher Karl Popper and expanded in this 1993 essay. Soros, of course, would go on to build a coalition of NGOs and interfere in the US Elections under his "Open Society Foundation" banner.

Here are the elements of an "Open Society" in theory:
🔹Democracy
🔹Free markets
🔹Civil rights
🔹Minority protections
🔹Transparency
🔹A "global" rules-based order

In practice, Open Society means something very different. Let's go through the essay.

Soros Quote:
"𝑶𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒚 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒂𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒈𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏... 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒔 𝒂𝒄𝒕 𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒔𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈. 𝑪𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒚 𝒐𝒏 𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒊𝒂𝒍."

Translation:
You're an open society if you accept our interpretation of pluralism and Western values. Otherwise, we'll label you "closed," even if your people elect their leaders or protect cultural traditions. And this gives us pretext to justify military actions on you.

Soros quote:
“𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒅𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒄𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒄, 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒕-𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅, 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔.”

Translation: We pour aid into countries that remake themselves in Soros' image. And no amount of money is too much to accomplish that- because, again, we have redefined "peace" to mean "as many countries follow the Open Society model as possible."

And if aid fails, then military intervention is next.

Take a moment to think about this.

What do you think this means for anyone who is opposed to foreign aid?

They are agents of "closed societies."
They are a threat to national security.
Ergo...
They are a threat to democracy.

Sound familiar?

This point is perhaps the most ironic one. A "Democracy" according to George Soros is not decided by its own citizens. Instead, NATO's new mission is to impose their own ideology on others and build countries which agree with Soros.

Translation - if bribing a country with endless amount of foreign aid doesn't work to transform them from inside out, then NATO will intervene. And that's exactly what NATO did with Bosnia in 1994.

Translation: NATO's new job is not to defend member states, but to expand its presence eastward and actively shape the internal politics of neighboring states, especially the post-Soviet bloc.

This isn't a theoretical essay. Washington implemented the playbook.

🗓️ 1994: Partnership for Peace launched
🗓️ 1999: NATO admits Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic
🗓️ 2004: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria join
🗓️ 2008–2022: Ukraine, Georgia seek NATO pathway
🗓️ 2023: Finland joins NATO, Sweden follows

Why did everyone go along with this model? Simple. Enormous amounts of money was involved. Here's a list who benefited:

🧑‍💼 NGO Networks (Open Society Foundations, USAID, NED)
→ More influence, more contracts, more justification for expansion

🏛️ Bureaucrats & Diplomats
→ Career advancement via “democracy-building” missions

💰 International Donors & Foundations
→ Steer reforms through grant-making power

💳 IMF & World Bank
→ Lend to reforming nations in exchange for austerity + influence

🏢 Private Equity & Multinationals
→ Buy up privatized industries on the cheap (telecoms, oil, infrastructure)

🏛️ Western-Aligned Politicians
→ Receive aid, praise, and protection... even if they’re corrupt or undemocratic

👑 Post-Communist Oligarchs
→ Enrich themselves through Western-advised privatization

📰 Journalists & Activists
→ Funded by Western grants, shielded from local accountability

🧑‍🏫 Professors & Think Tanks
→ Get fellowships, scholarships, media access for pushing "open" values

📱 Big Tech
→ Enter new markets post-liberalization (data access, censorship tools, ad revenue)

🗞️ Mainstream Media
→ Shape narratives, control legitimacy labels: “reformer” vs “strongman”

And if you dare to cut off that money spigot... in other words, if you practice any kind of populist principles or try and assert agency for your own nation:

You are an enemy of democracy.

Because George Soros said so.

I keep messing up this thread. Here is the continuation:

FINAL NOTE:
Don't confuse George Soros's model of NATO promoting "open societies" with being anti-communist.

Soros didn't oppose the Soviet Union because it was communist.

He opposed it because it was nationalist. It resisted foreign influence and maintained centralized control over its own ideology and borders.

His vision of an "open society" blends left-wing radicalism (identity politics, anti-tradition, anti-sovereignty) with globalist structures (NGOs, Western institutions, and transnational finance).

The more you read his writings, the clearer it becomes that "Open Society" is a circular label for regimes that accept Soros-style politics.

Anyone who resists this framework is cast as an enemy of "democracy." And if you're MAGA, that means you.
