I have to confess that you all have me terribly confused. According to the Trolls and detractors I have read on this site (many times in the course of a single thread) ALL of the following statements are TRUE:
1) OWS is a leaderless, message-less, and irrelevant "movement" with no popular support.
2) George Soros is the leader of OWS.
3) Van Jones is the leader of OWS.
4) OWS is clearly "socialist" (which implies a message that you understand)
5) OWS are terrorists.
6) OWS are dirty uneducated hippy potsmokers.
7) OWS are whiny college-grads
8) OWS are plotting to take everyone's money in a military coup (an activity not common amongst potsmokers.
I could go on and on (and on)...seriously guys, either STFU, orget on the same page at least.
Yup. Biker's a cop. With ED.
Our message was very simple shaped in tent form. But you guys stole our tent and left our movement like went in the wind.
Greetings. Obviously the point of a detractor is just that - to detract. To detract from the movement, its message, its spirit. To detract from the issues at hand and the efforts put forth to achieve them. There is an element of police tactic here and there, such as demoralizing and demeaning remarks, and other attempts at provocation, such as falsifying claims of personal threat and immature challenges which prove the nature of that person to be dishonest and violent. Persons who are posting some of these negatives who are in banking and such markets where their abuse of trust has resulted in producing the crises at hand are probably doing a lot of posting because of their fears of discovery and censure. They may feel it therapeutic. They may think they are clever. I find it sad,
i find it sad too pigeonlady. It is hard to imagine how anyone could be so deluded as refuse to see that they are no better off than their lowliest neighbor, and that how they care for the down and out, is the true measure of who they are.
I'm not sure why Soros would be a leader of a movement that wants to eat him, unless he's narcissistic.
I think they are trying to express their disagreement with our methods.

The onus of proof and details of what is actually going on with OWS is not upon the so called "Trolls and detractors" but on the gullible and weak minded individuals who throw their lives away on such a tragic waste.
Yes, your trolling is a "tragic waste".
trying to reinstate the original meaning and spirit of the constitution of the united states is not a tragic waste!
i commend you. well get it hell lose.
