Call up your girls, yeah they all invited. All I really need is your undivided. Undivided, undivided. All I really need is your undivided. Undivided, undivided. All I really need is your undivided (Scott, 2020). In the use of the brute in military propaganda and in popular monster forms, the virgin sacrifice elevates to mythological proportions, in psychopathic harmony, it shields collective punishment and corpses economies in the light of virtuous self-preservation at all costs. The brute virgin collapses into social fabric at the level of ultimate silence and democratization of shame and exile. As a white Double Consciousness pivots around its acceptance and misrecognition of the necropolitical real, we see it cleave to several primal images; the brute and the virgin as a sacrificial form can sub-symbolically identify two asymmetries between white double consciousness and the double consciousness of racially dominated peoples: the access asymmetry and the escape asymmetry. The sacrificial white woman with the devalue of the stained marked by the beast left flesh as a site of urgent reproductive terror on the one hand, and a site of illicit erotic currency, a hyper-patriarchal satisfaction of fetish fears, its asymmetries elide the spatial, interpersonal, and psychic barriers to remaking whiteness in a society in which the preservation of whiteness is structurally dominant (Hawkins Davis, 2024). “This association of France with the 'black atrocities' was reflected on all levels of the campaign. Popular media made out that France’s desire for revenge was the source of the atrocities on the Rhine, and representatives of different organizations mobilized against 'the violation of the German woman by France.' They argued together with government agencies that the French appointed 'Negroes as rulers' in order to humiliate Germany. The critique of the use of colonial troops always targeted the French nation too. Large parts of the German press attributed the responsibility for the black crimes to France and used the 'Black Shame' to chain the French to the 'stake of world history' (Schandpfahl der Weltgeschichte). Campaigners saw 'the entire white world' standing against France" (Wigger, 2017).</p>
