Det är bra att cannabis är olagligt!
Mmm, nu vart du lite provocerad va? Men nej, det är inte eder Amram som plötsligt gått med i RNS och FMN, utan en skön dialog som stonern Russell har med sina läsare i serierna Big Trip Travel Agency (finns även ett temanummer om cannabis i Plain Rapper Comix 2, tecknaren är Pete Loveday, tecknar litegrann som Robert Crumb för er som kan era undergroundserier!
Helst skulle jag scannat in de 8 serierutor som dialogen utspelar sig i, men jag vet inte hur jag infogar en bild i mina inlägg så jag skrev av alltihopa, anyway, ni får föreställa er den grubblande Russell med en spliff i handen, långsamt grubblande:
“So you´d think I was in favour of legalisation, wouldn´t you? Or at least something on the way to that, like it´s okay for personal use…..but I´m not sure about that…..I would be if I was really convinced our society was okay basically, but I´m not…I mean, it politicises a load of people…..well, if the laws against cannabis are the only ones you regularly break, and you know how stupid they are – vicitimless crime and all that – then it makes you realise how the state oppresses the helpless individual…..and that opens your eyes to all the other forms of oppression!
Well, think about it! A shit system that lets you smoke a spliff is still a shit system. Even if they made it legal it would just be another business, part of the capitalist trickle-up effect. The whole meaning of it would change…..you could forget any mind-expanding nonsense. It would be one more consumer product like all the rest!
Of course, while it´s illegal it simply helps you to see the absurdity of everything…..little groups of giggling people having a bit of harmless relaxation and at the same time getting a whole range of new perspectives on things…..and knowing that they actually aren´t allowed to have these new perspectives.
Hmmm! Well, maybe that´s a bit over the top…..maybe most people aren´t that politically conscious…..maybe most tokers just get stoned…..it´s only when they get busted or they hear of a friend getting busted that they realize what it´s all about!
So you gotta admit that it´s a good thing it´s illegal. It opens peoples eyes to the way our society treats minorities! Oh, it´s tough on those who pay the price, but that´s the way it is. You just gotta see them as casualties in the struggle with the state. We gotta see them as reminders of the war being waged against us all. Their sacrifice is never wasted!”
Rätt skruvat men ändå lite rätt, eller hur?
