Ok so while there are many of us fighting on the front lines in the cities, the rest of us have to realize our position of power. Our job is to fight the information war against the propaganda machine that says we are violent, crime ridden, aimless, and hopelessly idealist.

Thus we have the following tasks ahead of us:

Debate the propagandists (mostly right wing) on youtube.

  • we are not violent, we are simply in the heart of the city and thus attract predators. The Tea party did not spend the night in protest they just went home

  • We can agree with the right: we want to stop speculators from screwing our economy, we want to get money out of politics, we want our liberties returned to us, we are upset with the Obama administration

  • the following youtubers spread nothing but propaganda and have tons of sheep who believe them, go debate on the videos of these youtube channels

  • Stevencrowder

  • Pajamasmedia

  • mcintaggart1

For once in our lives we as individuals can influence the world around us, we need to win the information war one person at a time, debate by debate.

everyone one of us has to go get em. If we have access to the internet there should be no reason why we cant spend a few minutes out of the day posting a counter comment on an anti-ows propaganda video. DOing this usually gets someone to start a debate with you, at which point, since you posed the original subject of dissent, they have to debate you on the subject of YOUR choice. Be ready because the sheep strike fast and hard, but we have the truth on our side.

I'm on dial-up, making it difficult for me to participate - if I can't view the vid then how can I tear at their position?

I am doing all I can . . .
