The Floyd Riots Mark a Century of Communist Agitation (Jack Cashill nails it)
American Thinker ^ | Jack Cashill

Posted on 06/15/2020 4:43:16 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

As it happens, George Floyd died exactly 100 years and 40 days after Alessandro Berardelli and Frederick Parmenter were shot to death in a payroll robbery in Braintree, Massachusetts. These men have little in common with Floyd save that none of them deserved to die and that their respective deaths set off worldwide demonstrations orchestrated out of the very same playbook.

In the 1920s, communists had to erase some immediate history — namely, the fact that a pair of Italian anarchists murdered Berardelli and Parmenter in cold blood. The evidence that the anarchists, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, killed the pair was overwhelming. They were convicted soon after the murders.

In 1924, as the appeals process wore on, Sacco and Vanzetti caught a break of sorts. Lenin died, and Stalin replaced him. Always the realist, Stalin had no illusions that the Soviet P.R. arm, the Comintern, could inspire an American revolution. He focused his American efforts instead on defamation.

With Stalin's blessing, the Comintern set out to find a case that would undermine the idea of America, which at the time held great sway throughout the world. America was widely perceived as the land of opportunity, the ever beckoning home of the free and the brave. For the Soviet experiment to prevail, the American experiment had to yield. The world had to see America through fresh, unblinking eyes, not as the great melting pot, but as a simmering stew of xenophobic injustice.

In 1925, the Comintern came looking for Sacco and Vanzetti, glass slipper in hand. Almost immediately, "spontaneous" protests sprung up throughout the world. Europe's great squares filled with sobbing, shouting protesters, declaiming the innocence of the immigrant martyrs and denouncing the vile injustice of their persecutors. These protesters donated hundreds of thousands dollars to the cause...

What's going on in America right now (other than coronavirus) is not about George Floyd or police brutality or even racism.

Communism is making its move in hopes that, this time, the insurrection catches fire. As Cashill says in this piece:

No, the response to this one was planned. I would love to know who green-lit the decision to go worldwide with George Floyd.
BTW, I doubt it was Soros. He's also a puppet.

And the Chinese are probably behind it, along with their liberal stooges in the West.

But perhaps a convenient middle-man for filtering money through to where it's needed.

The looks one gets when one mentions these historical facts is always amazing.

It’s like “Yeah, right, ok, sure...”

Intentionally dumbed-down society has worked wonders for the Left...

I wonder if the horrifying dream I had 11 years ago is coming true.. Asian soldiers, in the middle of the night, descending upon residential areas.

I’ve been trying to tell my co-workers that there are actual Communists trying to ruin this country for 15 years. They only worry about who’s being traded.

Who funded the Russian revolution? :)

From what I have read, the Germans were major funders. And I would bet the globalists in Germany and Europe are making substantial contributions to what is going on in America right now.

As long as American principles stay alive, communists will keep trying to destroy it. They have now indoctrinated a new generation in America who don’t read, study, or learn from history so the push is on to give overthrow one more try. What will happen when this ignorant generation takes over and those with memories of the past are no longer here to push back? Let us hope there will come a true awakening across America where the ignorant see the brutal hand of communism before the country succumbs to its death embrace? If they will just open their eyes, it’s going on right now in the liberal enclaves across the country.

It says a lot about communism that, to sell it, communists must somehow reduce the level of enlightenment, knowledge, and intelligence of its target market.

Years ago I subscribed to Fred Schwarz’s bi-weekly ‘anti-communism newsletter’.... I’m going to have to dig them out and go through them some day but it’s clear that given what has gone on these last three weeks, Schwarz was quite prophetic and knew exactly what he was talking about.

In her memoir, The Never-Ending Wrong, published on the fiftieth anniversary of the pair's execution, Pulitzer Prize–winning author Katherine Ann Porter relates how she first came to understand this.

Porter was one of what Lenin called "useful idiots".

To this day you will read the names Sacco and Vanzetti (or more likely their pictures) in connection to the greatest miscarriage of justice in American history . . . usually just before an entry about Julius and Ethel Rosenberg.

Asking that question can get you in trouble.

I find the biggest parallel (in my eyes) in these riots to the world-wide protests back in the early Fifties related to the Rosenberg Trial.

There was communist backed and orchestrated world wide outrage against the death sentence for those two.

In the end, even though there are hard core holdouts saying they were innocent, the Soviets themselves admitted in the end they had been spying for them. And that Ethel Rosenberg was involved too, not an innocent.

But I see parallels in this international “outrage” not to mention what we have here.

Additionally, decades of indoctrination in public schools has given us what I saw the last two weekends-I drove through a nearby town, and the high school kids (mostly girls) were in the town common holding up BLM signs and George Floyd related signs of support. Yesterday, in my own neighborhood, I came across half a dozen high school kids (again, all girls) blocking the road, scribbling BLM and George Floyd related BS in the middle of the road with colored chalk.

I don’t know why it seemed to be only girls doing this, perhaps the young guys aren’t as gullible for it, or perhaps they are lazy or stuck in the basement with porn and video games. I don’t know.

But it made me think that the people who foresaw the fruits of their brainwashing must be beamingly proud.
