The king of dark money effectively controls the US supreme court now

From its recent rulings to its billionaire donor scandals, this supreme court term has been defined by judicial activist Leonard Leo

This is the laziest, most uninformed retort I think I’ve ever seen. It could be used as satire if you just put a /s on it, but you actually believe this, and with zero evidence.
Good job.
Soros has donated literally hundred of millions of dollars to liberal and left wing causes. Some of his donations have been referred to as "dark money". This is not news - it's been well documented.
My point is that he's a left wing guy, so no one in the media cares.
(Sorry about the two deleted comments. Lemmy errors.)
You’re applying a massive false equivalency. If you consider Soros’ PAC donations “dark money” then sure, it’s easy to hand-wave in a concocted narrative of suspicious extralegal manipulations, which is the best you can do because as you contradictingly put it, “it’s been well documented” while also being ignored. Meanwhile, WE HAVE THE GODDAMN RECEIPTS that right wing billionaires are bribing sitting Supreme Court justices to rule in their favor on cases in which they are directly involved.
Soros is being ignored by the media because there is no story. If there was one, there’d be SOME kind of actual proof considering you have a hundred million right-wing conspiracy nuts like yourself who are desperate to find it. Instead there’s just vague misattribution of every PAC donation to be some shady, secretive, dark money deal. And that’s the best that can be done by Fox News, the largest and most powerful news network in the country with the backing of WAY more billionaires and more money than Soros.
So stop being both geniuses and constantly outplayed by the scary Jewish Illuminati while accusing the left of being both incompetent and evil masterminds. Your reasoning is simplistic and shallow. You are grossly partial and you hold your political “enemies” to a profoundly higher standard than you do yourself and your side. It’s unfair, it’s indecent, and you make America worse for it.
I better not hear you or any of your leftists buddies here bitch about the Koch brothers then.
Another lazy false equivalency. The Koch brothers spent fortunes to undermine democracy and flood social media with disinformation. Soros did what? Give me one proven example of unfamiliar or unethical aims.
