| 25. The system is rigged, but a FAR bigger problem is that people don't even KNOW the system is wrong |
|
If someone doesn't know something, how can they know it?
That's what I like about OWS. It causes people to THINK, people who ordinarily wouldn't think because their brain is filled with images of Jennifer Lopez' jaw, nose, forehead and cheek plastic surgery, with images of only one piece of news circulating 24/7 for 6 months or longer, and with reality shows.
OWS, with their signs, with their message, with their refusal to stop creating civil disobedience and disturbance, are there, taking the message everywhere. The media has found itself forced to report it, despite the fact that the media has been complicit in keeping people dumb as rocks for 3 decades, and it's the ONLY movement I've seen do that in my entire life. I can't think of another movement in this country that has accomplished that, can you?
Yes, the system is rigged, and that's why there's a movement at all. If the system weren't rigged, what would be the need for OWS? There wouldn't be.
