Forum Post: Stop and think!

The existence of this site contradicts the fact that OWS is a leaderless movement. Without leadership, there would be no focal point for the movement. The inevitable result of successful, leaderless protest is the creation of a vacuum. Have we forgotten what nature does to vacuums? It fills them with aspirations to tyranny! Surely, OWS has leadership, it just won't rear its ugly head.

"Do what you will without imposition from others." is number one among the five enumerated invitations found in the Call to Action portion of this site. There are many things wrong with this imperative, but please chew on just this one: the 1% did what they willed to amass the power they have successfully employed to oppress the 99%.

All five invitations are written as conditional statements. The conclusions of all five are identical: "then you might be one of us". The only logical implication is that inclusion may have nothing at all to do with meeting the conditions for inclusion listed in the hypotheses. This is, in a word, irrational. It should also raise suspicions and calls for clarity regarding the unstated conditions to be "one of us".

Are you checking your neighboring sheep for fangs? You had better start.
