Forum Post: If you protested in Oakland, did you get paid?

I'm a high paid movie producer. We tricked you into rioting in Oakland but we actually filmed you for an upcoming zombie movie. Turned out pretty good. Cant tell an OWS protester from a zombie. Next time, can you wear some clean clothes. It made our zombies look much worse than a zombie should look like.

Well Fred, two things...

1) A motivated Zombie who takes time out of their life to physically do something is better than the Zombies that come up with semi-witty things in the privacy in their own house for their own amusement.

2) Insulting something that a person has no control over is not the proper way to be taken seriously. Of course they have dirty clothes. They have been dedicated for almost 2 months strong and counting. You think anyone is going to be offended? I would be proud to wear those dirty clothes, much like I am proud of the scars on my hands from the hard work I have put in accomplishing things in life.

C'mon, man, it was a joke.

Racist jokes may be funny to certain people when the race in question is not around. This person has come to a place to make jokes AT the people involved TO their faces.

Go to another site to joke about it in a negative way. Or at the very least, stop hiding behind the internet and actually say it in real life to people involved with the Occupy Movement.

It's easy to hide behind the internet and say anything and everything that comes to your mind with no moral filter. The harder thing to do is to physically take time out of your life, commit and work towards something.

Instead of calling him out and telling him to leave, I defended against what he said, and showed him how to improve his jokes in the future. Jokes are welcome. Trying to beat down people in a sarcastic tone is not.

Steven, YOU were great. I loved the hairy legged karen falling down when her leg fell off after you waved a $20 in front of her.

It is ignorant people like this that has caused our nation to fall. They live in la la land and in the meantime have been and will continue to get screwed by our government, big business and banks. OWS is at least doing something by getting their voice heard AND for all of us.

I have not received the notice that our nation has fallen. 12 million mexicans and countless millions from other countries pour into America. Many of THEM seem to be able to make it. I do get screwed when I have to pay my taxes and a fat ass lazy person gets my money. I like big business. I like banks. I like rich people. You are miserable and YOU want everyone to be miserable with you. I have note gotten letter in the mail. Were you the zombie with the hairy legs?

Oh, just wait a minute things in America are going to get a lot worse and soon! That is the only thing I am saying to you.

Once obama is tossed out, things will get better.

[-] 0 points by karenpoore (902) 13 years ago

I am afraid not. It does not matter who is the puppet president. Let's see how long you like those big businesses, banks and rich people. It is just not America that is having financial issue it is global. All I can say is prepare the best you can by transferring your dependency on big business, banks and the rich and becoming more self sustainable and fast!

Actually, here is what will happen. Once we get back in power OUR people will cut the hell out of social programs. That should scare YOU. I will be happy.

I suspect you are just an ignorant troll, but I thought I would say something. lol

Personally I do not depend on social services up to this point in my life and I never have, but in a year I will be forced to depend on Medicare instead of my husband's health insurance at work. I will be 65. So you are telling me that even though I paid into Medicare my whole life I will be without care if I get sick? I guess that goes for your parents too. If the answer is yes then change the law where I do not have to go on Medicare and I can keep my husband's insurance. Actually though even YOUR people will not be able to stop what is coming. Thanks
