.@SpeakerPelosi speaking at presser with CBC: Thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life for justice...Because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous for justice.— Alex Moe (@AlexNBCNews) April 20, 2021
What sort of take is that? This is literally the best possible outcome and you say this? What the fuck.
Thank you George Floyd, the saintly religious martyr.
They're turning him into a religious figure. Make it spiritual. Make people do prayer and give thanks.
If you do this, you deradicalise them. You stop them fighting in the streets and turn them towards entirely ignorable acts of holding candles and praising Floyd our savior who art in heaven.
Spirituality has a long ass fucking line of being used to fuck with the left and this attempt is no different. Do not allow spiritual shit into the movement. Kick it fucking out. It will deradicalise people and turn events into hippy bullshit. If you don't get that shit out it'll turn away the radical working class.
