Too Stoned

Are You Sleeping Through A Revolution?

In one of his better-known speeches, Martin Luther King, Jr. urged his audience to remember Washington Irving's story of Rip Van Winkle, the layabout who reclined under a tree and fell asleep for 20 years. King stressed the hidden message that old Rip literally slept through the American Revolution. 

To King, the idea that someone could lie sleeping while the world transformed around them was absolutely horrifying. In King's words: 'There is nothing more tragic than to sleep through a revolution." 

Now King was a Communist dupe, and the revolution he was fermenting was designed to destroy America, but he was right: there is nothing more tragic than to sleep through a revolution.

As I type these words, a revolution is occurring, both in this country and throughout the world. The target of destruction is predominantly white men, but it includes anyone who holds traditional conservative values. If you're a conservative or even someone who sympathizes with conservative values, there's a target on your back. Sadly, the vast majority of those under attack are not even aware that they are targets. They're literally sleeping through a revolution.

Some of these individuals are beyond repair. The liberals who make up the Democratic Party, the protesters who march down the street in their pink pussy hats, virtually all of Hollywood and Silicon Valley ... That bunch can't be helped. The fires of hell await them.

But why do others refuse to wake up? Why do otherwise intelligent people fail to see the danger and fate that awaits them? 

Many are simply duped. Led by their noses, they believe whatever the gatekeepers of the right tell them. After all, if their favourite fake-conservative radio host or television personality tells them that race is a social construct, that vaccines are safe and effective, or that Israel is our greatest ally, well then it has to be true, doesn't it?

Because most whites and most conservatives are honest in their daily lives, they find it hard to accept that others who look the same as they do and who profess to speak to their same interests could be lying to them. The possibility is simply unfathomable.

This naiveté on their part leads them to underestimate the level of evil being directed against them. They think leftists are merely misguided individuals with an irrational hatred of Donald Trump. "If only those liberals had the facts," these conservatives like to say, "they would think and act just like us."

Fat chance. Truth and honesty are not liberal values. The reality is most leftists would like to see the vast majority of whites and conservatives dead and buried. Six feet under. Rotting in the grave. 

Exactly how these leftists expect the country to function once all the whites are dead is anybody's guess, as history has provided us with countless examples of cities, regions, and even entire countries crumbling into disarray once white people are gone. Indeed, if every white person in the United States and Canada were to disappear tomorrow, within ten years North America would devolve into the biggest shithole in the history of civilization. Try explaining that to your conservative friends. They won't be your friends much longer.

Trying to wake white people up from their slumber is a draining task. No matter what facts you give them, no matter how strong your argument, no matter how convincing the evidence, they will continue to believe what they want to believe. They're too busy binge-watching Netflix (not to mention porn) to be confused with facts.

I used to send five-minute videos to a friend of mine, hoping they would supply enough evidence of Democratic corruption to convince him not to vote their party ticket any longer. He told me to stop sending the videos. Did he watch them, I asked? No, and he didn't want to. He'd rather watch the latest Star Wars movie.

Prior to the 2016 election, a couple of girls at a Farmer's Market booth that I frequent told me they were both voting for Killary. I printed a couple of pages off the internet with details about Benghazi, the Clinton hit list, the Vince Foster murder, and the missing emails. The next time I saw them I gave them each a copy.

Two weeks later I asked if they had read the material. They both shook their heads. "Why not?" I asked. "I was too busy," one replied. "You could read those pages here in five minutes," I said, "while waiting for customers." The busy one shrugged. "If it was a romance novel, I would have read it."

Then there are those who want to believe, who actually do believe, but they're too frightened of being ridiculed or ostracized by their friends, family, or peers to do anything about it. The term "conspiracy theory" was invented for these very people in order to shame them into submission. Utter those two words and you'll see these individuals scurrying under the nearest rock. They care more about social status than they do about truth, justice or even life itself.

One of the hardest life lessons I ever learned was realizing that the vast majority of people on this planet are no different than sheep. They can be herded and controlled, and taught what to think and how to think.

Narcissism plays a part too, as most of them are too prideful to consider the possibility that they've been conned all their life.

As Gil Scott-Heron famously wrote, the revolution will not be televised. There's no need to televise it. People are too busy sleeping.
