Australia preparing for Global Revolution November 5 2012 begins today.

A great speech one that inspires everytime. Also the Charlie Chaplain one.

Couldnt we unite under the banner
OCCUPY EARTH...............?seems appropriate....

When good men will do NOTHING

November 5 2012 - a day like every other, nothing will happen...sad but true...

Only with a defeatist negative non productive attitude like that. Speak for yourself.

If I were you I'd talk to the indigenous people still trying to get recognition that the are the sovereign people of Australia. There is a movement happening already, backed by law that will also help you out with the 'walking away from it all' option.

Aboriginal Tent Embassy

Unless of course your revolution won't include them?


I gather that you are in Perth. You could pop in for a cup of tea and an exchange of ideas.
Nyoongar Tent Embassy

I agree with what your saying completely. And I'm glad to see someone has a tentative plan, of sorts. I only have one word.... CELEBRITY. That's what we need... the sheeple will listen to idiots like the Kardashians and grown adults who don't know the difference between chicken and tuna. Now, how to get a millionaire to care about anything more than how their hair looked at the last signing.

So when you get done bringing down government, what are you going to replace it with?

i have to say i like the spirit, the passion, the enthusiasm, OP
and i'm sure that we agree on a great many things that must be done...
but now i am going to do something i have literally never done and speak against the revolution.
i was in on OWS from the ground floor, thanks to good ol' ats.
for the first months i literally ate and drank ows
i would stay up all night following threads and then spend my sleep-deprived days explaining it to people
and the major thing i noticed is that Perth is not ready.
it broke my heart but it is true.
sure, everyone knows the government is evil but they've known that all along.
just like they see the horror stories scrolling on their tv screens every night, but it's always been like that.
our social and economic problems are nowhere near as dire as... well, pretty much anywhere.
people are complacent and until that changes we will get absolutely nowhere.
if you were there when our 'occupation' 'started' you will know all too well what i am trying to describe.
kids more interested in face paint and gay rights than even hearing what occupy is about ["we'll just shoot all the cops, then we'll win"], old hippies dragging in old vendettas and pet causes [i understand the aboriginal rights thing, for example, but since we're fighting for ALL of our rights, are they not a subset of that to start with? why must we muddy the waters with nuclear embargoes and vegan signups?], "organisers" literally drawing up shifts for who will wave signs and when, and attempting to enforce them, idiots with megaphones amplifying their own flatulence all afternoon.... when the crowd is only 20 strong, these things stand out.
then add into the mix that most of the people who would stop were just bogans there for a laugh
...GET A JOB YOU SMELLY HIPSTERS
i was hoping beyond hope that it would work out but it didn't.
people are just so self-involved and insulated. they need to be touched by it personally before they will react.
i'm just scared that by the time that happens here it will be far too late.

i guess i am trying to say that i am totally 100% onboard, but until people stop laughing in my face every time i mention the failing world economy, i don't think i'll be ready to commit to new names and new faces because it will just be new failures.

Since he/she is seeking heavy union involvement the revolution, it's not difficult to work out what they would seek to replace the current abortionary government system with.

Karl Marx is dead, his ideas have proven to be counter-intuitive and won't be accepted, leading to harsh subjugative measures by the ruling junta against the population. Beware the pretty words of Marxists - their radical, populist and egalitarian words only thinly disguise the old thinking which gave us the Soviet Union and Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Fair dinkum.

@Laura, your experience with Occupy Perth sounds similar to mine with Occupy Sydney. Shame.

OK it's the 5th of November.

I withdrew all my bank funds.

What Now?

Let's all withdraw our money today.

Yes. Since 2003 I have always had minimal money in my account - $10 or less.

I withdrew just over 30 thousand dollars in 3 days (2003), and was looked at like a criminal by the bank manager.

I had to make the arrangements days in advance.

EDIT - I don't have that kind of money anymore - So leave me alone.

Bloody Do Gooder Jesus, he killed your income?

My money is long gone on alcohol and strippers. - No Not really - Well maybe some of the money

Well done to all the idiots who write with their sarcastic comments, why don't you become part of the solution instead of the problem. Today marks the third anniversary of my beautiful sons death by suicide. All I can say is Australia is the most apathetic controlled nation on earth. What will it take before the world realizes we need to fight back against the system. RIP my beautiful son Stuart 5 March 1992 - 5 November 2011. I fight the system for you and every other person that has lost loved ones.file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Samantha/My%20Documents/Downloads/14739_200453888988_1719001_n.jpg
