It's Kalle Lasn and his pals and they're playing you like little mindless puppets in their long-standing hatred of America and business in general. Most of you have no clue what you're involved with. Wall Street and unemployment? lol! Nope, sorry...

click and learn


"“We will wreck this world,” Kalle Lasn declares in his book Culture Jam: How to Reverse America's Suicidal Consumer Binge -- and Why We Must. That, quite simply, is the goal of the Vancouver-based organization he founded and runs. A self-described group of “anarchists” and “neo-Luddites,” Adbusters are not merely environmentalists, animal-rights activists, anti-technology activists, or neo-Prohibitionists. They are all these things and more..."

Uh, no... Sorry, I was on your side. Yep, they got me too.

Like I said, there are real issues and I appreciate the desire for an "American Spring" but this ain't it cause this ain't real.

It'll be pretty real when people start getting hurt, won't it?

[-] 1 points by Frankie (733) 13 years ago

There's going to be a real stampede away from it.

Please have a look at http://www.TheMultitude.org , a new, more organized OWS forum where trolls are banned.

So pulling the covers back to reveal the truth regarding the real orgin of this "movement" is trolling now? lol

Doesn't matter. Once the general public and MSM finally really put the pieces together and the true story comes out, which it will, this whole deal is going to very quickly implode and there are going to be a whole lot of people, politcians, and news organizations left feeling very foolish and used.

You're getting played. While there are real issues, there was nothing at all "spontaneous" or "organic" about this deal. It's been very well orchestrated by Lasn and associated groups for the sole purpose of creating chaos in his long-running attack on capitalism and the US. That might be cool with the anarchists in the group, but it's not going to play very well with many others particularly after they've put their butts on the line and hearts into it. Hopefully, nobody gets hurt in the process of playing in a game that they don't even understand.

No. Deliberate provocation is trolling. Now. And always was.

Wanna debate? Post using language that respects your opposition. Trolling isn't your only option.

[-] 1 points by Frankie (733) 13 years ago

I see nothing offensive in my post. That is, unless the truth offends you.

[-] 1 points by equazcion (688) from New York, NY 13 years ago

Then you're not looking hard enough.

[-] 1 points by Frankie (733) 13 years ago

Nope. You and a lot of others here aren't looking hard enough.

[-] 2 points by equazcion (688) from New York, NY 13 years ago

If that's been your experience here, it would behoove you to examine why no one takes you seriously. It's easy to blame us for being naive. Do the more difficult thing and ask yourself if you're presenting your points in a manner that's most likely to get a good response.

word!

[-] 1 points by Frankie (733) 13 years ago

I'm not blaming anyone for being naive. I'm putting the truth out there so they won't be.

But they don't need me. It will become apparent on its own soon.

So you are pro-suicidal consumer binge?
