This is what I just thought.

Helter-skelter.

A few decades ago the only people who wanted a race war were the ultra far right, mostly hooligans anyway, and Charles Manson. Now it's the mainstream left. WTF.

Although one thing which isn't spoken about much is at the time of the Manson Murders the Black Panthers actually came out in support of him and called it the Year of the Pig in his honor. Identity politics has always been fucked up.
