#Bonus 3. Para Political Cannabis pt3. "Russia and Yankee hemp traders" [TRAILER]
Four faces are usually named in theories about an anti-cannabis
conspiracy. Hearst, Anslinger, Dupont and at times Mellon. The story is
older and much broader. Today I will begin explaining why these people
and others were also involved in the fascist Wall Street Putsch of 1933.
One American old money family, described at times as the core of the
skull and bones, is the Whitneys. But it was not the cotton engine that
got them rich. Their fortune, as much of the bourgeoisie's, was made
during the Napoleonic wars. A war structured by hemp supply n trade.
Realising the vulnerability of an entire world market depending on a
single nation's production of cannabis, as the map of Europe was
redrawn, the colonial powers went to the global south, looking for
alternative exotic natural fibres and slaves for the new
mono-plantations.
The 1850s onward was also an era of petrochemicals, steam and steel
ships, sulphide extraction and chlorine bleaching for timber paper, it
was the first truly global structuring of an agricultural commodity
order, and the Whitneys show up everywhere.
Understanding the beginnings of this anti-hemp matrix will take us to
Freemason-guerillas in the Philippines, reactionary US admirals, the
letters of Alexander and Napoleon, Viennese sledge trade, Yamashita's
gold as well as gangsters of capitalism in German East Africa.
