The 4chan post used a photo of Kojima and labelled him as a " left-wing extremist" with a criminal record.
It also included a picture of Kojima wearing a type of Ushanka, or fur hat, worn by soldiers in communist Russia, and another of Him Standing next to a picture of Marxist revolutionary Che Guevara .
Screenshots on Social Media showed Damien Rieu , a French politician associated with the country's nationalist movement, had tweeted out images of Kojima with text translated to: " The far-left kills".
