What's the big deal? Anybody who cared to look would know that OWS was strongly influenced by anarchist thought from its origins, nor is this anything that any of the movement's initiators ever tried to hide.

You guys claim to not have a leader but here's a leader right here.

I'd agree that it's not quite accurate to characterize OWS as leaderless. It is more accurately leaderful. We are all leaders. Solidarity forever!

Yes!

We are all leaders, yet none of us are.

That's how Democracy is supposed to work!

As our own leader we will end corruption and the inherent waste inefficiencies of repressive violent regimes. Globally. It wont happen unless we lead. Peace.

Yes yes. This is our leader.

Now go. Chase the rabbit.

He is a professed anarchist. So what?

Many radical ideas come from the fringes of society and sometimes later on become supported or not supported. That goes back way into history. People like Copernicus and other scientists were once vilified for having views that most wouldn't support, only to find out later on that it all had basis in fact.

Sorry, but I don't know what the point is here. Copernicus was once exposed, too. Even Galileo was convicted of heresy suspicions and sentenced to house arrest for having ideas that were out of the ordinary.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Human-Society-Project/202270743180999 this I believe is a much better approach. Do not click it if you don't want to know. I am not trying to get advertisement. So if you are one of those people who simply like to complain do not click it. I only wish to help the human race become better. I thank you for your time and I love you all

O my God, this grumpy old Anarchist has grown that OLD to be our leader? Please tell him to keep away from fire.

You just proved he isn't the leader

Honest to fucking Christ: the level of illiteracy and dyslexic dysfunctionality in the general population of internet freaks who come onto internet forums has descended to such an incomprehensible garbled pile of totally irrational, infantile babbling that the few posters who can understand and write English are a distinct mineority.
