You\u2019re very brave.\u2019 And suddenly the Left were \u2018traumatized.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>They called him all sorts of horrible things, which of course were not true. Winston was introduced to the new trauma economy.<\/p>\n<p>And the great irony is that we always use these extreme things, especially on social media, to justify our erratic behavior.<\/p>\n<p>We ignore things that actually do mimic those instances.<\/p>\n<p>What do I mean? As I\u2019ve mentioned before, we are all existing under a modernized plantation.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m talking about the growth of \u2018The State.\u2019 We are inching closer and closer to living under the power of \u2018The State,\u2019 because of the rise of Marxist ideologies \u2014 which will produce a slave-like economy.<\/p>\n<p>If we don\u2019t wake up to it, we\u2019re not going to have the freedom to be able to change it.<\/p>\n<p>When you think about institutional slavery that existed in America, you have to think about the essential components of slavery.<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, it was crucial for plantation owners to have the right to sever families. In fact, in Booker T. Washington\u2019s book\u00a0 \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Up-Slavery-Booker-T-Washington\/dp\/1420952382\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Up From Slavery<\/a>,\u201d he talks about how he felt nothing when his sisters were sold. It meant nothing to him to see his family members go. That was plantation life. He also says didn\u2019t feel anything when his mother died. Wow.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine what power that gave the masters, right? You don\u2019t even have a family. Where you work, that\u2019s where your family is and that\u2019s all that matters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Think about what they did during the COVID pandemic. Let your family members die alone. It\u2019s the right thing to do. Don\u2019t worry about anything else, \u2018The State\u2019 will keep you alive for another day. That\u2019s really dark and really dystopian. Talk about the breakdown of family.<\/p>\n<p>Second, and most importantly, masters also ensured that slaves were ignorant. Slaves were not allowed to read books. It was a way to make sure the remained stupid.<\/p>\n<p>Now look at the irony of what happened to Winston Marshall of Mumford and Sons, why was he attacked? Because he read a book \u2014 a book that made him aware of how dangerous things were becoming in the States with the far left organization Antifa.<\/p>\n<p>Which leads me to the other great irony. We are facing a reading comprehension crisis in America that nobody is talking about. Our children are not learning to read.<\/p>\n<p>There are entire school systems, like in Baltimore, where they can\u2019t find a single child across five schools who is proficient in reading and writing.<\/p>\n<p>Talk about something that\u2019s literally just like slavery.<\/p>\n<p>When a person is ignorant, they are emotional, not rational. They react to whatever their masters want them to react to. You don\u2019t want the slaves reading about an abolitionist movement up north in the newspaper. You want slaves to believe that this is all that there is, right?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is what\u2019s happening right now in our country. We\u2019ve become a society that hands out more degrees than we have ever handed out. And yet we are producing students who have never been dumber. That\u2019s reality.<\/p>\n<p>ACT and SAT scores are plummeting and yet young people have never been more sure of themselves.<\/p>\n<p>They know everything about sustaining \u2018The State\u2019 which wants to enslave their minds. They are empty vessels, waiting for propaganda to fill them.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The State\u2019s\u2019 power will not help their individual power grow. Of course not. No, that\u2019s not how it works.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, slaves were whipped in front of one another to teach them a lesson. If they ever thought freedom might exist and tried to escape, when they were caught they had to suffer tremendous consequences.<\/p>\n<p>In case you think we\u2019ve moved beyond those days, just look at the high price people in Hollywood pay for speaking out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Like Winston Marshall, when he simply read a book.<\/p>\n<p>They chased him out. It is essentially like watching a public lashing. The mob applied pressure on companies to have him fired, to get rid of him, and not allow him to play his banjo with Mumford and Sons.<\/p>\n<p>He read a book they disagreed with. There was a corporate consequence for speaking out against the establishment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And typically they will smear you too, and they will libel you, and tell you how horrible you\u2019ve been your entire life, and even though you\u2019ve never been a racist or white supremacist \u2014 they accuse you of just that \u2014 and then they convince an army of people that you\u2019re a horrible<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The trauma economy is all around you today.
