Forum Post: For those of us not in any immediate area....

I happen to live in an area of rural Florida where not a whole lot is going on. As much as myself and many others I know would love to join in with OWS this isn't possible.

What I'd like to know is there anything people such as ourselves can do to help contribute to the cause? If we could get a good number of options I think it may even be a great idea to put the information somewhere that it can be accessed by others coming to the site.

absolutely; if you are online and rural your best way to contribute is collaboratively via the virtual GA as provided by a wiki.

Its up to you guys in many senses to help us with the organizational structures and details and forward thinking on the real meat of the revolution which is the paradigm shift.

My suggestion is that you find the closest occupation to you. I know there are several in Florida. Most people have weekends off or two days off during the week. Try to find the time to spend at least 24 hours at an occupation. Then go home and see if you can find 10 people close enough to you to start a local general assembly and you are off and running. Barring that money or in kind contributions to the closest occupation are always welcomed but wherever and whenever possible participation is the best contribution.

Thanks for your kind post. Please consider volunteer depending upon your skills. if possible provide me your contact by sending message to me (clicking on the name). volunteering from anywhere is the best way to help and it is possible to volunteer right from your home.

Read the post moron. It's anonymous.

[-] 0 points by slizzo (-96) 13 years ago

like that matters.

"moron" - irony!

when you get "grow your penis" emails 50X a day, do you...love the anonymous person sending them?

well, maybe you do.

And what you are doing right now is helping create change how? Shut your mouth. No one likes a Monday Morning Quarterback.

[-] 0 points by slizzo (-96) 13 years ago

the topic is what to do. I made 5 suggestions. you dismissed them all. I asked again. You said I missed the point. I reminded you that you never had a point to miss. Your answer is the utterly ridiculous question "And what you are doing right now is helping create change how?" Followed by "Shut your mouth."

Be honest, are you a 14 year old girl who got grounded? Or a truther?

Those are the only explanations that make any sense at all, toots.

Actually, all you did was criticize. You didn't suggest anything on this post. slizzo your IQ must not be in the triple digits. Please go elsewhere with your jibberish.

[-] 0 points by slizzo (-96) 13 years ago

so, do you love the anonymous people who send you emails or not?

Consider why you have felt ignored your whole life and why you need to exert control now
