From Freedom to Fascism: Part One; Occupy Wall Street

I don't agree with every point, but definitely the majority of them.

I think the degree of connection with institutional socialism that we're seeing with Occupy, is also deeply disturbing. We're in serious trouble if we can't express dissent about the condition of society, without the process of said dissent, being hijacked by a group of people who we don't necessarily agree with at all.

I have no problem with them dissenting, it's just the socialist solutions I disagree with.

This threads a joke right?

Why? Because you disagree with the content??

I mean, I personally don't like Micheal Moore along with 99% of the USA. As soon as I saw that, I just couldn't take you seriously.

So you “personally” don’t like Michael Moore and you think 99% of the country agrees with you? I wish you were correct (because I hate him) but the reality is that he wouldn’t have made millions making dumb F-in movies filled with lies if 99% disliked him. This is the minset of OWS though...as long as YOU agree that means EVERYONE agrees.

And I don't get what your pictures had to do with Fascism at all. In Fascist states you can't really protest at all...

Sure you can…as long as the government agrees (in the case of OWS…they DO)!

You know, I've noticed something about evil Leftist vermin like Moore. He generates hours of content to explain and justify his position; while his opponents generally think that perhaps two lines of profane ad hominem is sufficient for a complete rebuttal of it.
