Occupy Wall Street better defend its identity

[Pardalis]

Pike deserves to live in fear now.

Fear for what?

Are you actually advocating violence against he man?

Is that the kind of world you want to live in?

Here are two of the sprayees, recounting their excellent adventure horrific nightmare:



As you can see, they can barely hold back the smirks tears. This clearly will rank as the greatest most awful moment of their lives.

Someone was emphasising that these are not petty brats just a little while ago.

Meh. One right wing enemy of the movement

I think the preferred term is either 'class enemy' or 'enemy of the people'.

Let me guess, a Bruins fan?

Nice photoessay of the Zuccotti Park camp.

Warning: Freakshow ahead.

An incredibly lucid and fair examination of the occupy "movement". The story of the genuine homeless man assaulted and evicted from the park because some of the occupiers didn't like his rants should be memorised by every occupier and occupy supporter. His assailant, by the way, has been welcomed by the park occupiers and enjoys the privileges of free meals.

There are, of course, plenty of freaks and racists but the photo-journalist gave credit where credit was due. Perhaps sparingly but nevertheless fairly.

Meh. One right wing enemy of the movement posts some irrelevant and uninformative pictures. woop

If all it takes to discredit a movement, I could post video of teatards committing violent crimes.

Not that most of you lot get it, anyway.

Did you even read the whole thing?

Last I heard the movement is doing fine, worldwide, still expanding and forming new alliances, in many countries.

and the fact that we are still talking about it proves it is still effective.
the whacktards can bitch and moan all they want....people are pissed off.
the revolution has begun.
bankers and capitalist pigs beware.
if you are not supporting the movement, you had best just keep out of the way.

I love this particular photo, because it combines Che with my favorite meaningless bumper sticker of all time (which I believe I mentioned at one point in this very thread), Mean People Suck.

 

[bikerdruid]

Very funny!

ya, i got a giggle out of it as well.....
and a sick spot in my stomach that people can actually support the actions of this abusive pig.
btw....has anyone phoned mr pike?
i have. and i know several other people who have.

If you're an American, chances are you're in the global top 1%. Even a poor American lives like a king compared to people in Haiti, Sierra Leone or Somalia. Occupy Walltards are overwhelmingly middle class. Therefore, shouldn't they be asking for more of their income be creamed off and redistributed to the poor of those countries? There's too much of a gap between the average american and the average Hatian. It's not fair.

Not to worry, the GOP is doing it's best to make it more fair and bring down the average american quality of life to that of an average Hatian.

Bolding mine...


No no no no 1,000 times NO!

Just because they're being ridiculed, doesn't mean they're getting anything done!

Effective will be changing something.

Unless all they care about is being talked about and ridiculed. If that's their goal, so be it. But it appears they want something done. In order for that to happen, they have to do something constructive. Like elect like-minded people into office.

if you are not supporting the movement, you had best just keep out of the way.

Oh please.

Wow, you actually found a favourite? I'm impressed. Each photograph contained and conveyed its own story and it was difficult to locate a common thread. Perhaps it was that, for protestors, they appear so confused and rather amiable.

There was plenty of what I call soft anti-semitism: rhetorically, in images, and stuff copied willy-nilly from pre-Holocaust sloganeering.

And what's with all the anti-fracking nonsense? Is it just because the word sounds a little naughty?

 

[bikerdruid]

Fear for what?

fear of justice.
he will be charged with assault.
count on it.
you will see him next year, flipping burgers at mcdonald's.

 

[Pardalis]

What did you and the others say?

 

[Pardalis]

Sure.

But I'd like Sergeant to respond.

 

[bikerdruid]

What did you and the others say?

phone him and ask...you can pass along your approval of his gross abuse of power at the same time.

 

[Pardalis]

phone him and ask...

I'm asking you what you said. Don't you understand English?

I have no intention of calling him.

 

[bikerdruid]

I'm asking you what you said.

yes you did.

 

[Pardalis]

yes you did.

And what did you say?

 

[bikerdruid]

And what did you say?

too many asterices.
