I too had fallen prey to the anti-Soro propaganda, thinking he raided rich Jewish houses as a child. Appears from the article this is incorrect.

But you're open to being corrected at least.
All else being equal, those who have the least difficulty with admitting they are wrong, are wrong the least often.

So I can assume I'm usually right?

You can hope you won't be wrong for very long

> 60 Minutes Interview George Soros Tried to Ban - Atheist, Holocaust Criminal Conspiracy
> Rumors have circulated since protests and riots broke out following the election of Donald Trump last week claiming billionaire globalist and notorious meddler George Soros is backing the anti-Trump movement in an attempt to further destabilize the nation. Although the links thus far have, indeed, circumstantially indicated Soros’ involvement, the connections haven’t been entirely clear — until now.
Yeah, I don't think I need to sit through that for 60 minutes before I draw my conclusions.

You get the quote within the first 30 secs directly from soros’ mouth.
I think that a lot of the noise about the man is bogus. I also would rather be aware of facts than close-minded.
> Soros posed as the Christian godson of an official of the collaborationist Hungarian government's Ministry of Agriculture, who himself had a Jewish wife in hiding.
> Tivadar not only saved his immediate family but also many other Hungarian Jews, and George would later write that 1944 had been "the happiest [year] of his life," for it had given him the opportunity to witness his father's heroism.

Hiding with a pretend-collaborator who saved many Jews is not "working with the Nazis"
On top of that, it is crass and naive at best to compare the current xenophobia of nationalists, to having to survive a fascist dictatorship whose officials can kill you any time they feel like it simply because you have a certain ethnicity. In practice it comes across more like a bully trying to paint himself as the victim.
