We often talk about Lyndon LaRouche and him geing a weirdo in the 80s.
But how did he become the central conduit to spreading the russian Conspiracies about George Soros
I mean from 1992-2004 he was in prison. Wasn't around for Soviet russia going tits up
It turns out, while in prison LaRouche was getting russian visitors
Taras Muranivsky and Viktor Kuzin would travel to LaRouche's prison to interview an American "political prisoner".
Somehow, from prison, LaRouche was able to help set up the Schiller Institute in Germany in 1992
They held their first conference in Moscow from October 30-31, 1992.
Talk about scary Halloween monsters
In 1992, while LaRouche was in prison, ultra-nationalist groups began to translate and sell his economics textbook
So You Wish To Learn All About Economics?
In 1994 LaRouche would travel to Moscow for the first time with his wife and meet russian ultra-nationalists Sergey Glazyev
In 1995 LaRouche would speak at the Russian Duma on "economics"
He would blame the monetary policy of the "New World Order"
When returning home LaRouche would publish his first dossier on George Soros by William Engdahl in November of 1996
It would expose the "Jews who were not real Jews" behind Soros, namely the Rothschilds
In a 1997 Editorial it was explained that the goal was to to "Clip Soros's Wings"
Then came the 1998 60 minutes interview detailing how Soros escaped the horrors of the Holocaust
Of course LaRouche would use this as proof George Soros was a Nazi or Nazi collaborator who got rich killing Jews
Fun fact:
Two Decades later Alex Jones, Dinesh D'Souza, Glenn Beck, Roseanne Barr,James Woods, Ann Coulter,[84] Louie Gohmert, Marjorie Taylor Greene,and Donald Trump Jr.
would repeat this same lie
Then in 1997 LaRouche would use the Malaysian economic crisis to make the worst of the Soros conspiracies take off with the publishing of "The true story of Soros the Golem”
Anno Hellenbroich, Nancy Spannaus, and Jeffrey Steinberg would write the nonsense
Engdahl who wrote the first hit piece on Soros got in on the act
LaRouche enjoyed the attention Soros brought, him. The WSJ coverage made noise, so he kept it going
The anti-jewish under tones were barely hidden.
In 1999 LaRouche would publish Sergei Glazyev’s book “Genocide: Russia and the New World Order"
In 1999 Yeltsin appointed Putin to President and hardliners like Glazyev had their role grow
LaRouche would go back to Moscow
In 2001 LaRouche would again travel to russia to speak to the Duma
In December of 2001 he would make his second trip of Moscow that year
In 2000 The Schiller Institute started to make in-roads into Hungary was well to support a weka candidate named Viktor Orbán
Wanna guess where Orbán came down on the Hungarian born George Soros?
By 2004 George Soros came out against George W Bush.
You start to see Soros as an evil nazi popping in places like the David Horowitz Freedom Center and Tom Fitton's Judicial Watch
In 2006 LaRouche brought in the antichrist allegory
In 2006 Newsmax would run with the LaRouche Soros is a a Jewish Nazi controlling the NWO
but the big hit was when Bill O'Reilly did a ten minute segment on George Soros in 2007
That took the Dugin, Glazyev, and LaRouche conspiracy of Dugin big time
In 2006 LaRouche would return to Moscow with his Youth Movement
In 2007 LaRouche would again trek to Moscow
LaRouche and EIR would keep up the anti-Soros diatribes
The Nazi theme started to become more and more prevalent from 2008 onwards
Larouchites would then find their way integrating more and more wwith ultra-nationalist voices in russia
They would get scientific or editor spots on all the "think tanks" that popped up all over the world after 2008
It is at this moment in time it gets harder and harder to start separating the narratives
In 2006 there was a Conference in Iran on Zionism and the Holocaust.
After that event zionism became Nazism and somehow Soros was a Banderite Nazi Antifa
Larouchites were in attendance
I mean real deep
The Schiller Institute voices would be just as prominent in russian State media as Ron Paul voices
They would still find table to set up folding tables. It's in the LaRouche DNA
Obama was a Nazi for supporting the coup in Ukraine
Schiller Institute went hard for Ukraine is Nazi
LaRouche, his wife, or the many voices of Schiller Institute would be all over russian media defending russia's efforts at denazifaction
and the West bringing us closer to WWIII
Ohh and Nuland did the hit on Nemtsov
When she wasn't too busy making cookies
And George Soros was still a Nazi
Andriy Parubiy was just gunned in Ukraine.
A few days ago
In 2016 Lydon LaRouche kicked off a friendship with American political technologist, Roger Stones
LaRouche used to call stone Ray Cohn's gay slave (in way worse language), but in 2016 they became besties weird, amirite
When Fiona Hill testified in Donald Trump's impeachment she would say, "This is the longest-running anti-Semitic trope that we have in history, and a trope against Mr. Soros was also created for political purposes, and this is the new Protocols of The Elders of Zion."
The way Lyndon LaRouche explained it a win for Trump was a way to defeat Obama and help russia
Stone would bring in the JFK Jr assassination conspiracies as well
He ran a massive facebook group trying to "expose JFK files"
Another important link was Bill Binney
Binney getting fired by the NSA, and then raided by the FBI was also blamed on George Soros
The involvement, according to Douglass Caddy went back to Harley Schlanger approaching the Trump campaign and offering to help use LaRouche's extensive contacts in russia
After Stone's arrest the LaRouchites would organize a series of YouTube Streams and podcasts
Bill Binney was there, because of course he was
LaRouche began pushing the hoax of a "Russian Hoax"
And this was after LaRouche had died in 2019
and Glazyev was dismissed by Putin
Yet the Schiller Institute kept up their connections as a bridge between russia and MAGA
Some claim LaRouche was just a useful idiot, others say he was more involved
He did leave a legacy
He connected "critical theory" and "Cultural Marxism" to the Frankfurt Jews that MI-6 got to Columbia
And he helped make George Soros the "Protocols 2.0"
Always blaming Jews

Scientists discover more thinking equals less conspiracy theories
Well more scientists first measured dispositions of thinking in a sample of 990 people, and then developed follow up studies exploring causul relationships.
Though at first glance, question sample sizes to establish casual relationships. Seems like you want more. Always moar
The authors first define misplaced trust from the field of medical research and science
They suggest encounters with psuedoscience increase misplaced trust in conspiracy theories
In terms of Political parties in the United States the @GOP is one more built on narrative and Ideology while the @DNC consist various interest groups expecting more results be written into history
This Theoretical and Operational differences has played out in pages for decades
But because the @GOP is built more upon the ideals of ideological purity, more ink gets spilled in the direction of the right
These stories range from economic scholars to to the total crazy and everything in between.
But it is an Asymmetric phenomenon, often of liars
@GOP We can begin our Journey with Ludwig Von Mises, whose texts grounded Austrian Economics into Libertarian mindset.
Originally published in 1912, it would be republished by Yale Press in 1953 and take off
