One of the modern-era GOP tactical favorites has been to project onto some target ‘liberal’ the things they themselves have been up to in secret...case in point: Charles Koch.
As discovered and reported by historian and researcher Nancy McLean, Koch has been organizing and funding a covert effort to eliminate the voice of the people from US politics, with the intent of remaking the USA into a new-feudal state in which the wealthy alone call all the shots and control polices foreign and domestic. In service to this, he has bought outright - or controlling interest in - the libertarian party, Reason Magazine, the Heritage Foundation, “Americans for Prosperity”, the Tea Party, the economics departments of colleges and universities all over the US, and the GOP. Among his ‘accomplishments’ is the military coup in Chile during the70s and the reign of terror and murder that followed it - capped off by the imposition of a new constitution which removed the public from having any influence over what happened to them, reserving that power for the wealthy and well-connected; said constitution was written and directed by Koch’s partner in crime, economist James Buchanan. Said constitution was a dry run for what they planned for the USA.
Such a massive and expensive effort couldn’t be hidden entirely, so George Soros was set up as the patsy; and the fears of right-minded and alarmed, but dull-witted, “conservative patriots” over the massive shifts in the US they could *almost* were aimed aggressively at Soros, so *he* could catch the flak while the systemic subversion of government at all levels could continue without serious attention being drawn.
