one of the best posts about the protests.
imo the police are going to turn this into something.. then itll get noticed -_-

Yeah, to be honest. People who cannot step out of their own personal bubble of comfort, and take a peek into the real world. And know what is going on in your country. This is not a conspiracy theory. We. Are. Getting. SCREWED. The entire banking system is screwed. The FED is screwed. The Gov't is screwed. This is for all of that.

We got some people on twitter going along with this BS. like "Oh they're just hippies" and all that #. or you go on the 99 tumblr, and you got some dudes being like "I worked hard all my life, etc etc, i do not want handouts, yadda yadda" <- the movement is not about handouts. I dont think anyone wants handouts really. The system is broken, and its more visible now than ever.

Think of the implications of a movement like this. Its not communist, its not republican, its not this, its not that. It is people. We do not need to label everything, a label is something meant to divide people. Thats why you have the liberals, conservatives, republicans and democrats, teabaggers communists socialsts. and all the isms of those words. It matters not at all anymore. When you occupy, you shed your those parts of you. Its about human beings, thats it. Us, everyone, our neighbours. over 800 cities across the world are going to occupy, and the number is growing rapidly. This is THE PEOPLE talking. Not the government that makes our decisions for us.

We do not want war. We want the corporate criminals to be braught to justice. The financial system needs a complete reform, because it is broken beyond repair. And we need to start caring about or neighbors, and stop being self righteous. This money wasted paying INTEREST on debt, constantly paying interest. Constantly wasting money on frivilous things like the war on drugs, any foreign wars AT ALL. There is a fine line between being 'world police' and 'peacekeepers'. If they should be doing anything it should be removing actual dictators and actual corrupt officials. lock them all up. especially the ones in africa, that is a big reason where there is poverty in africa. Corrupt greedy officials and dictators.

I did not vote to send our military into the middle east, how many people did? That decision was made for us. It seems like all the important decisions are up to someone with their own self interest or the interest of other big business.

It is funny how soon we all forget what the people looked like that protested The Vietnam War, Social Injustice and Segregation. Darn funny looking hippies never have a point.............

They are zombies, downing what the right tells them to while they cheer for more freedom wrapped in the flag.
"Mmmmm Freedom" The right will continue to tell them to down the "hippies" as THEIR corporate masters order them too.

As a pro OSW'r this movement will continue to grow. WE do not want money from any corporation, we do not want big business involved in Government, We do not want private corporations controlling key elements of our nation's infrastructure.

OWS seems to be a left wing version of the tea party. It was started by a small group of people that were genuinely upset with the status quo, but did not have a coherent aim or well articulated agenda. Well-established political groups capitalized on the group's angst and lack of focus and hijacked the movement. Just as the tea party has become a simple re-branding of the Republican party, OWS has become a re-branding of the Democratic party.

The tea party when on to undermine the intellectual underpinnings of the Republican party. Smart Republicans with sophisticated and complex ideas that did not align with simple dogma got crowded out by the shrill voices of the tea party. Something tells me when it is all said and done, OWS will do the same thing to the Democrats.
