#Bonus 4. Para Political Cannabis pt4. "American coup d'états and Soviet Tesla experiments"

The Return Of The Repressed.

We have reached the threshold of history, the 20th century. The possible role of hemp in the last great communist peasant uprising of the American Midwest. How FDR divided US farmers and how the Brits shutdown the first general strike in the Jute plantations of Bengal.

We will read the revival of the marines as a new becoming of an American east and west India trading company as it tries to rewrite the colonial world of natural fibres. With Smedley Butler we return to Manila, follow him to China onward to the Banana Wars of Wall Street.

China, the Hemp and Jute production of which covers almost perfectly the area which will later become occupied by imperial Japan. A point buried deep in old map archives about international fascism which can not be brought home in a tweet.

We read from the first Big-Ag documents, forgery and erroneous science misshaped by a tobacco, cotton and timber mania of the Whitney family and their many friends. The plot thickens in the eight corridors of the universe when DuPont funds Anti-Bolsheviks insurrection.

I will keep listing and bringing together seemingly separate international Rubicon moments, all of that faithful year of the 1937 Marijuana tax act. If Pompey Magnus is the consul of the world's natural fibres then Nylon is Gaius Julius Caesar. Behold the Fourth Black Eagle.
