Germans Are Rebelling Against The Migrant Surge

Interesting where it is happening:

One had a beer bottle flung at him on a train. Another was woken at midnight as three men holding wooden slats rang his doorbell. A third had her headscarf pulled off by a stranger in the street.

A year after they arrived in Germany seeking refuge from war, some Syrians say they have experienced so much animosity that they are contemplating leaving.

The trouble is, they have landed in the eastern state of Saxony – a flashpoint zone home to the Islamophobic Pegida movement that has seen a spate of racist hate crimes.

“It’s too scary here,” said Fares Kassas, victim of the train aggression.

“The man threw the bottle just as the door was closing and the train left the station. There was nothing I could do,” said Kassas, who has obtained refugee status in Germany but is now contemplating leaving for Turkey, where his parents are living.

Mohammad Alkhodari, who spoke of a car that pulled up next to him with men preparing to beat him before he ran away, said he avoids going out after 6:00 pm.

“I am so stressed that I have developed a stomach problem,” he said.

In Saxony, the number of far-right crimes, including assaults against asylum seekers and arson at refugee homes, tripled to 784 last year compared with 235 in 2014…

The arrival of 890,000 refugees last year has deeply polarised Germany, and misgivings against the newcomers run particularly deep in eastern states like Saxony.

The former communist state has become fertile ground for the far right, with unemployment fuelling resentment and xenophobia.

The first vigilante attack is an amygdala-triggering asshole pucker. By the tenth or twelfth, it is an enjoyable release of frustrations. They will increase as time goes on.

I cannot put words to my amusement that the thing which may very well save Western Civilization, is the ideology of Marx. By impoverishing those areas where it took root it preserved enough of a kernel of the K-strategy to let it come into bloom early in areas like this, and begin the revolution.

A man who hated freedom, greatness, and the very humanity he was born into, and who devoted his life to ruining it, laid the groundwork for the salvation of Europe, and was helped in saving it by the labors of fellow travelers like Lenin and Stalin.

How is that for irony?

r and K are so beyond the reach of any man, that anyone who thinks they can affect the tides of either are deluding themselves. Don’t sweat the tides – just enjoy the ride.
