My favorite quote:

"As soon as enraged rioters see the statue isn't of a dangerous, murderous madman whose ideas killed hundreds of millions but is just of Karl Marx, they move on," said one city council member in Illinois as he put a Karl Marx wig and beard on a statue of Abraham Lincoln.

Marx murdered nobody because all he did was sit down all day and write about his philosophies and isms. He never worked or tilled the soil in his life.

your convoluted bullshit logic is at least inconsistent.

Trump is at the root of the world's ills, but Marx is innocent. gotcha

Convoluted, how? Bullshit logic, How?

No, Marx isn't innocent but he certainly didn't murder anyone. He created an ism that murderers followed many years later.

iirc before marx died he refrained from joining various marxist circles already.

You have to be careful. Some statues have already been pulled down because they were mistaken for someone else. If someone left a KFC bucket at his feet they may mistake him for Colonel Sanders.
