According to the A.C. Nielsen Co., the average American watches more than 4 hours of TV each day (or 28 hours per week, or 2 months per year). In a 65-year life, that person will have spent nine years glued to the tube, and for children these numbers are often higher.

The effects of a society being given all their information from television ‘programs’ owned and operated by establishment interests are quickly coming to fruition.

Different races, religions, and cultures living together in harmony is the de facto enemy or tyrants. This is why establishment needs you to be divided — so they can conquer you.

We need only look at the political rallies of the 2016 presidential candidates to view this staggering level of divide which has been, quite literally, beaten into us by the establishment.

Just this month, we’ve witnessed Donald Trump supporters chant, “N**gers, go home!” at one of the billionaire’s speaking events in North Carolina. Not only did the audience launch verbal assaults at peaceful people, but some of them got violent.

The level of divide in this country appears to be at an all-time high in spite of all the progress of the past several decades. Americans are pitted against each other over superficial arguments that serve as little more than talking points for pundits on the left and right sides of the establishment.

While Americans bash each other over superficial issues of right vs. left or Islam vs. Christianity or white vs. black — those at the top, get richer, more powerful, and more tyrannical.

We have been divided, and we are now being conquered — and political correctness and racism have served as the catalysts.

Below is a video of an incident in which a black woman confronted a white man on campus for wearing dreadlocks that proves this notion.

“You’re saying that I can’t have a hair style because of your culture? Why?” the man said.

“Because it’s my culture,” the woman says before physically grabbing the man.

In what world is it okay to lay your hands on someone and assault them for their choice in hairstyle? To assume this is acceptable behavior is as disheartening as it is dangerous.

Tolerance is not a one-way street.

If we are to progress and get over the sheer lunacy of judging others by their appearances, then we need to understand that aggressor/victim situations are wrong, period. Reversing those roles is not social justice, it is oppression — no matter the level of melatonin in your skin.

Society would do well to heed the words of the great Martin Luther King Jr.

“Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.”

This video below is NOT peace.

San Francisco State University released the following statement this morning regarding the above incident that occurred March 28:

We are aware of the video made of an incident which occurred on campus yesterday afternoon. University police were called to the scene of the incident when it occurred. The two individuals involved in the incident are not San Francisco State University employees. Further, no criminal charges have been pressed at this time to the University’s knowledge.

San Francisco State University promotes the rights of the campus community to engage in free speech, but does not condone behavior that impedes the safety or well-being of others. We are taking the matter seriously and will promptly and thoroughly investigate this incident through applicable University channels, including our campus student conduct procedures.

Please share this article with your friends and family so that we can become more aware of the powers that be who wish to keep us ignorant and fighting so they can continue to loot us and spread their violent empire across the world.
