Civil War was not about freeing Slaves, it was about Industrialists enslaving everyone - criminalizing Hemp

The industrialists and barons didn't want people to be self sustainable. Before the civil war the south was growing the fuck out of hemp - getting rich off of rope and fiber. We wouldn't be dependent on crude oil and paying $5 a gallon to the terrorists today if hemp were legal. We would all be well clothed, well fed, and well medicated (personal choice - some people need medicine, some just like to ingest the shit for fun) - we wouldn't be hooked on petro-pharma pills, and that's exactly what those pharma meds are made from - petro/crude oil derived synthetics. Our nylon and polyester clothes are synthetic crude byproducts that eventually pollute the oceans.

Fucked for hundreds of years, enslaved to our "masters" - all because hemp was shut down. Not for your own good, not to protect you from the evil "drugs" - no, to enslave you. For the profit of a few "powerful" families - (scared ass bitches!)

Until people wake up and realize this shit, until we get the stereotype of the stoner hippie that just wants to get high out of our heads - we'll continue the fucked downward spiral into war and all out cannibalism over the last scraps of crude.
