Political protest as performance art.

[mdmc]

Poll question: Political protest as performance art.

I have always been a trend spotter. In your lifetime I predict payas (those 'ear curls' that orthodox jews wear) will become popular with the masses.

How long until political protests become the mainstream of performance art?

How long until the jackass crowd fakes a birth at a pro-choice event?

How long until black men dress up like the clan to mock Ron Paul?

How long until fake "riots" are the norm at political speeches?

I just remembered some of my buddies playing along with "Billionaires for Bush". They were the talk of the protest scene before the war became unpopular.
