"We are our demands" sounds great but fails accomplish anything. Can we come up with goals for this movement?
Detailed real time control of the government by citizens.
We should apply this rule to our movement first: all discussions which decide the future of our movement must be posted on YouTube.
Power must be shared.
We will when the time is right. There is method to this madness. I know this might sound like BS but I assure you, it's part of the plan. It just seems nonsensical because it runs counter to the traditional way of doing things. This is a new model. The old model is obsolete. This cannot be rushed.
I am a bit concerned by the lack of logic and by the lack of control of the movement by the people themselves.
Of course it is good to oppose some constructive madness to the overwhelming official madness we all know.
And I am also concerned by the complete lack of interest people show for any responsible topic like this one.
This particular forum, although it's on the official OWS webpage, no longer accurately represents the actual picture of the movement. It's become a quagmire. The main reason is it's not moderated although i don't know why. That's allowed a lot of garbage to find its way in. It's hard to find you way through the minefield. Definitely check out some of the other sites for more focused, and moderated, discussion. http://themultitude.org/, http://occupyr.com/, http://citicommons.com/
Thanks, I will definitely check them out.
