Sadly, mon ami, the people have been duped.
It is a similar, if somewhat larger, arrangement of comvenience as Speaker's Corner (Google it). Standing on a soap box one may rant to one's heart's content but it has no effect whatsoever on TPTB.

I wish you were right, I really do.
They can and do high-jack freewill. Hints: Political Parties, Media, Radio and TV programming, Universities and other Education.
They are directing people's will as to what they want them to think, as opposed to actually thinking for themselves
No they haven't taken everyone's freewill. But those out there that are still asleep really don't have much freewill as they only do what the "group" wants them to.
not to mention the hard line attitude our law enforcement community and legislative bodies have now. They are there to take your free will by passing legislation and enforcing unjust laws on people. This takes one's freewill from them.
What you are thinking is "Free Thinking" but that too is under pressure. (fluoride, chem-trails, needless drugs)

You can believe what you want.
I've done my research and I know my position.
If you really believe that this all happened spontaneously for pro-people reasons then I wish you luck in the future. These 'protests' were left so open-ended that anybody with any grievance could attend and feel justified and vindicated by doing so. And all away from where things really happen. While the real things continued to happen without hampering or hinderance by the great unwashed.
And I'd rather be paranoid than gullible...

It's exceptionally easy to organize something like this if you happen to have a network of plants and alphabet-soup agencies utilizing social networks and forums.
Even better if you happen to own a majority stake in the largest social netwrok and ban your national compatriots from sharing that position....

I don't think TPTW would like the people to awaken and demand that their flagship company, The Federal Reserve Bank, be demolished. This revolution is a genuine revolution by the people. The people are taking back their power. The energy of change is upon us. This cannot be stopped by TPTW.

It's not a revolution. It's a bunch of protesters who really just want basic reforms and the return of certain key regulations. A lot of them don't know this, of course, but that's the nutshell of what they actually want.
I repeat: it's not a revolution.
And I'm so adamant about it because the second people start calling it that, the whole lot will be branded terrorists.
