>>1845626>>1845645He does not support Israel. I will paste what I wrote in the German thread for newbies to understand why this is the case.
Explanation:
Marxism doesn't explain individual ideologues actions. It explains broad historical changes, the development of societies, economic development, technological development, etc.
In general it explains development, not what individual people believe. When, in general, most of the international bourgeoise support Israel in this moment, Marxists can explain how the global political and economic conditions led to this conclusion. However, why a specific member of the bourgeoisie supports or doesn't support Israel is not in the scope of Marxist analysis.
Marxists can explain the emergence and development of certain ideologies, for example, neoliberalism, Zionism, etc. A bourgeois individual isn't a robot that perfectly embodies his class interest, much like a proletarian individual basically never fully embodies his class interest. We are all subject to ideology, which might run counter to some of our class interests. Marxism observes that the general developments in the long run tend to align with class interests. In other words, in the long term, the class warfare is evident, while in short time scales, it is not necessarily evident and classes can act against their own interest. This is in the case of classes. In the case of individuals, this dynamic is even more significant. Individuals can even spend their entire lives fighting against their own class interests.
In the case of George Soros, he is an ideologue of the Open Society. He seems to believe very deeply in liberal values. Israel is an apartheid genocidal tribalistic society, which runs exactly counter to the concept of Open Society and (contemporary) liberal democracy, which again, Soros is an ardent believer in.
If you want to understand Soto's actions, you have to understand the development of "liberal democracy" as an ideology, and the concept of Open Society.
Contrary to what you might expect, most of the bourgeoisie considers themselves to be a strong positive force in the world. They consider themselves to be responsible for brining good to the world, preventing bad in the world, being uniquely capable of knowing what's good for humanity, and generally morally correct. Even though their actions or what they support might be the most fucking evil shit known to mankind for you, they still believe themselves to be generally good people. It's important to keep that in mind.
