Karl Marx must be laughing in hell about all of this.
He sure does. Let us not forget that German racism started in earnest when leftist newspapers and Marxists wanted the French out of Germany, complaining about their black African troops sexually offending blond German women...
I have been saying for some time that George Floyd is the left’s Horst Wessel.
That is, he was a fully factionalized figure who was used by the radical leaders as an emotional symbol to whip up self-righteous fury among their followers. You need a figure like that to keep it going and keep people full of ruthless hatred for their imaginary enemy. Every radical totalitarian movement needs an imaginary martyr and an imaginary villain to keep it going.
