Major hate on the site, LOL! I'm having fun arguing with these AM radio parrots, however...it'll get me ready for protesting!
I am in complete agreement with you in your aims, but I would sound this note of caution. The 1% have shifted tactics, and are now trying to paint us as rabblerousers who are losing support with mainstream Americans. Personally, I think we should all boycott Black Friday, but this time do it silently and respectfully (I'm not saying anything we have done has been disrespectful) but this is their tack and we should do everything possible to not fall into it. Maybe we could have a peaceful march, somewhere relatively sympathetic to our case - march silently, with everyone carrying a flag. We simply must outsmart these foul players, while keeping our dignity. Thanks for all you have done here! I have been following your contribution:)
then, maybe we should just disband and be more quiet and "respectful". please, show some nerve. the movement is causing great concern because it is the first thing in thirty years that is effective. we have awoken and find that we have strength and influence. that is because we are loud, inconvenient and in the way. and our voice is being heard because of that. we must remain peaceful, but, we must remain in full view and loud and in your face. show some courage.
Bitch I was just lookin for a pat on the back. I started the damn website son, what did you do?
did you invent the internet too?
Nope, I invented you when yo mamma came over for dinner 19 years ago
yeah, she told me about it. she said your dick was the size of an eraser head and nothing happened. she also told me that your mamma would like me back over for another romp in bed.
ok the first part of that was good...the part about my mom was just derivative. with a name like tulcak, you gotta come better than that. I have an idea. Watch me with your mom when I come over tomorrow so you can learn how to COME correct LOL LMAO u FAIL
and the monkey pushes the button
Clear example of the nutcase anti-social psychopaths that populate the majority of OWS
I've never seen anybody so on about other people's cowardice. Are you maybe afraid you really are one, and just projecting this implication on others as a way to boost your own ego?
There is, in politics, such a thing as thinking tactically. I did not advocate a stop to direct action, but rather that it should be precisely targeted so the media can't use it with selective images and yellow journalism to destroy our image with the public at large. If you are anxious to mix it up on the streets, I'm sure no one will stop you.
"mix it up on the streets"? you've got to be kidding. if you really understood the occupy movement, you would understand that it is a peaceful movement of civil disobedience. are you prone to violence? by the way, politics won't solve anything. our government is controlled by corporations. they'd love us to keep doing business as usual.
You are engaged in politics right now! Furthermore, it is you who are always attaking everyone you've never met, and know nothing about, with the charge of being a coward - of being afraid to engage in action - to the point of being consciously provocative. In short, you are merely erratic and disruptive, you contradict youself from moment to moment, and are probably a troll.
think or not as you like. oh, and I am not engaged in politics. neither is the movement. for example, tell me which party or which politician the movement is affiliated with?
You don't even understand the meaning of the word politics. I will not waste one more pixel on you.
fantastic
God you people thinking that Occupy Black Friday is going to hurt minimum wagers are STuPID. Where did anyone say that was going to happen, you morons? Eastsome, Qwerty, tulcak, you are all idiots. Stop Black Friday!
uppy wuppy
This is exactly what OWS needs to do. This will hurt those that work in the retail sector more than anyone. Retail workers are some of the hardest working, lowest paid people out there. My congrats to OWS for trying to put them out of a job.
How did you not unload on that Julie chic?
That said, my stance remains the same. I will not do BF but I will not raise hell with people who are making minimum wage, temporary and have crappy jobs as it is.
protest loud and protest strong. be in the way, be inconvenient. being silent or quiet doesn't work. the reason the occupy exists is that the American people's voice is not heard in the halls of corporations/congress nor in the media. they are starting to hear a low rumbling outside now.
That low rumbling may just be coming from the hollow place between your ears.
Or a fart brewing.
man don't take those right wingers serious!!
Occupy Christmas! http://churchofatheism.webs.com
