A Far-Right propaganda nugget - Events in Chicago

[pastradamus]

I'm sure you all read/ heard / Seen the news story about that poor young man that was kidnapped, bound and tortured in an apartment in Chicago. The man also has disabilities, making this much more heinous. The problem is how much those Far-Right (I will never say Alt-Right, A racist is a racist) wankers will profit greatly (and already are I suspect) due to that old chestnut - skin colour.

This is such utter nonsense. "Look! Some Black people committed a crime!" Uh . . . so? Were they they official elected representatives of Black America? In what way is this relavent to anything?
I mean, I get it, it's relavent because it's something they (racist douchebags and their racist media propaganda organs) seized on. W/e.

That said, Shaun King wrote about it very well here (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-don-chicago-white-assault-case-blm-movement-article-1.2935825).

And the worst of all this, is that not only the capitalist media generalizes when a couple of blacks commit a crime, they condemn the whole black population. In the USA people have a habit of generalizing, the movies made by Hollywood, specially many right-wing militarist movies (Like Transformers etc) have racists and ultra-nationalists memes against other countries that have not done any thing bad against USA.

But anyways, the only cure racism is the destruction of the dictatorship of the capitalist upper ruling classes, isolated anti-racist movements like Black Lives Matter, I think that are not marxists and do not have a clear-cut scientific revolutionary program to desroy racism

It is tragic what happened to the poor fellow, though it is utterly unsurprising to see rightwing Americans using this to slander Black Lives Matter as a movement and African Americans as a whole.

BLM is not Marxist, sure, but that does not mean that they are not furthering important ends and raising a legitimate critique. While we can be critical of such movements, merely criticizing them on theoretical grounds is not a very scientific revolutionary program either. For one thing, we cannot convince them that such a program is necessary through critique alone.
