Soros funds most red-umbrella organisations, being those orgs that advocate for decriminalisation or legalisation of prostitution. Soros has given Human RIghts Watch $100 million. Soros has also heavily funded Amnesty International, which a couple of years ago declared that its position on prostitution was that it should be decriminalised or legalised. Human Rights Watch backed Amnesty on this issue.
All independent women's rights organisations around the world advocate for the Nordic Model of prostitution. The Nordic Model has been adopted by Sweden, Norway, France, Northern Ireland, Canada and a couple of other countries. It acknowledges the imbalance of power in the transaction: the buyer is usually a middle-class male; the seller is usually an impoverished, marginalised woman who has few real choices in life. Studies show that the overwhelming majority of prostituted women come from dysfunctional childhoods, with abuse and trauma. Many, in an attempt to re-frame that trauma, turn to prostitution. In fact, prostitution further re-traumatises and that's why many end up drug-addicted and with alcohol-problems. Studies also show that prostituted women suffer the same rates of PTSD as do war veterans. This is not a job just like any other. Studies also show that jurisdictions which have legalised/decriminalised prostitution are prime trafficking destinations and that legalisation increases trafficking. Germany, the Netherlands are good examples. There are not enough local women to fill demand in first-world countries, so women are trafficked from Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia. Many are lured by promises of work as waitresses or housecleaners. When they arrive, they are forced to service up to 20 men a day, their passports are confiscated, and they are held in debt-bondage. In Germany there are flat-rate brothels which offer menus where men can choose from gang bangs, anal sex without condoms, cutting and torturing of women. Germany acknowledges it has a problem but Merkel has failed to tackle the issue because of the tax dollars it brings into government coffers.
Despite this knowledge, Amnesty (and WHO & UNAids) have all declared that they're on the side of decriminalisation of johns/punters/sex buyers. The violence in prostitution comes from the sex buyers. The Nordic Model seeks to end demand. It criminalises the buying of sex, not the selling. Women are free to go to the police to report on violent punters knowing that they will be protected by the authorities. Also part of the Nordic Model are counselling offered to women wanting to exit the industry. They are provided with job training, housing assistance and alcohol and drug counselling. Jill Stein adopted the Nordic Model as her policy position.
Amnesty sought members who were on board with wanting to call for decriminalisation. It stacked its branches. It did no consultation and simply pushed forward its policy. Douglas Fox, a UK pimp, took credit for Amnesty's policy. Amnesty International has lost a lot of credibility because of this, as now everyone knows it is a paid flunky of Soros. Emails to members were leaked, members told of how they were left in the cold when it came to voting. It was a fait accompli; a done deal.
Soros funds all the red umbrella orgs (that I know of) in third world countries like India and Thailand. Sangram is one such organisation that claims it represents prostitutes. Head of Sangram, Meena Seshu, was found to have trafficked children back into brothels after they'd been rescued. Somehow, Sangram was receiving USAid money. There was a big deal made of the issue when it happened. Sorry for the long post.
