Can someone explain what the intended difference between this movement, and The Zeitgeist Movement will be? Because TZM is already going to have thousands of devout followers and seems to be pretty much the same lines as what is going on here... removal of politics, boycotting banks/military/religion, etc... What is the fundamental difference here? If nothing, why not just all join TZM?
If you can answer that, I might be in.
During Chicago’s 1968 Democratic convention, antiwar protesters—denied permits to march—fought for their right to be heard. Eight of the most vocal activists were charged and brought to trial in a courtroom circus that pitted activism against the establishment. This film mixes animation with archival footage to explore the buildup to, and unraveling of, the Chicago Conspiracy Trial. Set to the music of revolution, it portrays the struggle of Americans attempting to confront an oppressive government.

not to kill this thread or anything but .....couldn't brainstorming sessions like these be considered acts of treason? IMO i think that the people of ATS are all talk ... no offense but i have NEVER seen any proof that there has been an actual carrying out of plans drawn up by the members of ATS ... ya it's nice thinking about what we could do, but it'd be nice if we actually DID IT. Don't ask me how to do it because i have no clue ... i personally think threads like these are getting old fast ... nothing ever gets accomplished ... ideas get thrown around and possibly even a plan is drawn up ... but nothing ever comes from it ... it'll be just like every other thread ... it'll die down in a month or so...

The Zeitgeist Movement is vague. It's hard to know what they are trying to accomplish. It has been shown that the movement itself maybe based on lies. It is a very controversial subject. When a movement like that is made it is hard to know it's origins or intentions. It may be true in it's nature but it just has too much controversy around it right now for my tastes. I'd rather join this one because I for a fact know how it started and know it's intentions. I trust the members of ATS.
