Marx Cancelled

 Are universities really places of higher learning? 

The University of Florida has changed the names of one of its library study rooms that was called the “Karl Marx Group Study Room.”

"Given current events in Ukraine and elsewhere in the world, we determined it was appropriate to remove the name of Karl Marx that was placed on a group study room at the University of Florida in 2014," Hessy Fernandez, the school's director of strategic communications.

Are these academics even aware that Marx was born in Trier which was in the Rhineland that later became part of Germany and not Russia. Did this education establishment know Marx wanted a class-free state-free society with no top-down control, or that Russia has a capitalist economy? Didn't their politics or history department explain that Marx was virulently anti-Russian and supported the independence of Poland as a buffer against the autocratic Tsar?
