I agree with @I Know a Fat Guy
If these are their actual demands as a movement it’ll die down quick-like
Guess there’s a reason why even their greatest philosophers don’t hold a candle to the US
That's why occupy fizzled out. No clear leadership/message.
Occupy got corrupted quick
Seems like the same is happening here
To be corrupted, don't you have to have some purity about you first?
...good point
There was a good initial point in there about banks fucking around and getting bailed out when it blew up in their greedy faces
And then the Socjus leaked in
Nah fair
Everyone was against the bailouts, albeit for different reasons
But the reasons became a problem
I think the issue with Occupy, and this comes from hearing from some of the OG protestors, was that people actually coopted that shit for socialist garbage
To the point where the capable people ended up trying to nanny the commie idiots so they wouldn't freeze to death or burn the whole tent city down, and rich hipsters kept showing up just during their free time
And then they progressed to the point of 'Hey, don't report sexual assault to the cops, report it to us.'
Yup
I think most of the genuine old guard had left at that point
Probably a while before then tbh
Occupy should have been honest, working men and women demanding that the deliberate concentration of power, and the preservation of broken system stop. Instead it became hipsters whining about gender and race
If ever there was reason to call false flag/controlled opposition on a modern day protest
Kuwabara, Kuwabara...

Is Putin the new Waldo?
Too much hair to be him
But that’s funny
heh
