There is an assault from leftist Marxists against white people. For "white guilt”.
Explain what the assault is.

This is a safe place. : )

I'd like to know where the assault is.

If I had to guess, it's happening in racist imaginations. Maybe it's guilt they don't like being pointed out? It's hard to decipher when the idea itself is so irrational.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

I dunno. You’re the one posting about Marxists and white guilt.

I'm white, and have never felt assaulted, nor has anybody tried to make me feel guilty about being white. Being any colour is fine with me.

I am not a Marxist, nor am I a communist, but I have actually read some of Marx's works, which are of considerable historical interest. Can you refer me to any place in those writings where Marx is, in your view, attempting to 'assault white people for white guilt'?

You might start with the Communist Manifesto, which he wrote with Engels. Here is the 1848 edition (skip all the prefaces to get to the Manifesto itself):

https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/w ... ifesto.pdf

I've done a search for the word 'white' in that document, but I can't find it. Maybe you can?

Well back in the 1930s and 40s the American communist party was an active supporter of ending segregation and discrimination against Negroes. I guess some Americans still feel brutalized by the results of the civil rights movement and blame communists.

Of course it is you poor fellow. Hold your head up and smile at the sun and fresh air. Walk on the sunny side of the street.

Good that you can acknowledge that. A lot of cucked white people (usually lefties) are too afraid or stupid to acknowledge that.

P.S. I'm not poor. ;)
