People ask why there aren't many wealthy donating to the left, here is one of the reasons why. Soros gets shit upon for doing this. There is a British billionaire who did the same and got mobbed for it. Any rich folks donating to progressive causes gets character assassination from the right. Meanwhile, right wing billionaires gets a free pass because they have taken control of the media and brainwashed the masses to vote against their own interest.

    Yup, left-wing media need to be more prominent and dominant. Media is a big key.
