Props to nadinbrzezinski,

[The Doctor.]

and Everyone Who's Been Calling for OWS.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=439&topic_id=1523625#1523642

Found this while looking up a 'disruptor'. For years now many have been saying that The People needed to get in the streets and start protesting this shit. This past September, the building awareness and subsequent rage that is OWS was sparked.

I don't know if I said it would happen, but I've always hoped that doing what we do to raise awareness in our communities and around the nation would coalesce into something more material. It finally did.

So, to nadine and all who have persistently spread the truth, and to all who have taken to the streets, there may be a free and democratic America in the future, and it will thank you.

There is much more to be done yet, but at least the work is begun.

16. I just unrecced the unreccers by reccing. n/t

[rhett o rick]

42. I cant figure out these un-rec'ers. There are only a few of them and they really dont affect

the popularity of a post. Just dont understand their motivation.

[Enthusiast]

45. They are motivated by their ideology.

They are all in favor of the status quo.

[rhett o rick]

70. And they get some satisfaction in unrec'ing? I guess. nm

[The Doctor.]

81. Yeah, it's kind of sad.

They seem to think they're doing something useful. Thing is, even when they manage to keep a post below TGP threshold, the same information, même, or idea still pops up sooner or later.

But let them keep wasting their time.

[Fire Walk With Me]

2. Oh hells yes. Rock on, nadin!

[The Doctor.]

17. In that post I found, she said the media wouldn't cover it.

That gal was dead on the $$$. The media tried like hell to ignore it... they still do. I'm glad to associate with other people who have their finger on the truth and their feet in reality.

49. omg lolz

ooo, you bad.

:rofl:

[Bluenorthwest]

21. She's been great on OWS

starting before the actual events. After it got rolling she was spot on as well. And she was there in SD physically and as a removed Californian, I just love all the Californians who Occupy in my absence. I got to one CA camp for a short time.

[malaise]

22. Hell yes!!

Rec

[nadinbrzezinski]

23. I am going to blush now

:blush:

What I sort of expected was for the alternate media to emerge.

Now I am doing some of that reporting too...Monday will be a LONG day.

And also working on an essay on OWS right now. Evil OWS. I find myself reading Emma Goldman and Mikhail Bakunin...ear I guess is tightly tuned to echoes.

[The Doctor.]

24. Hey!

You've done more work on this than most people. You can bet that you were at least some small part of making OWS a reality. There are a bunch of people, as I said, with their feet in reality and their finger on the truth around here. I'm glad to know who they are.

Keep rockin' :hug:

[malaise]

40. You earned it

Blush away :yourock:

[stockholmer]

47. keep up the great work!

54. Your dialog with leveymg in that thread was really interesting

I missed it before, seems to start here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=1523625&mesg_id=1523888

[nadinbrzezinski]

65. I just re-read it

Given recent events in Egypt with the elections, that other far iChat religious group took me by surprise. No wonder the brotherhood is going right.

[JDPriestly]

69. Nadin, you have earned our admiration.

Great job.

[lunatica]

39. I always click on her threads

[WingDinger]

41. I was cheering Her/him, I do not know, during some admin trouble, I was afraid to lose another

Clairvoy... I too wrote and thought about Occupy Wall Street prior to it. And now are full to overflowing, from it's presence at last. It's squirmy, non hierarchical nature. It's sober and straightforward goals. Without some limit to our "demands". A new age is upon us. We need all the pioneer spirits among us.

[Tatiana]

56. She is a very good student of history. A very smart cookie. I appreciate her thoughts always. n/t

[The Doctor.]

85. As I recall,

her family was a big part of that history... and not on the advantageous side.

She's wonderful and there is no crime in encouraging a living resource to give.

And give she does.

[horseshoecrab]

57. K'd and R'd

Here's to you Nadin. :toast:

[Divernan]

67. K&R - I have found her to be intelligent & impassioned.

[dogknob]

68. I heard nadinbrzezinski subdued 20 bat-chickens with her bare knuckles!

You are great, N. I'll never forget how you helped my friend.

[The Doctor.]

82. Hah! We have an answer to Chuck Norris!

"How many bat-chickens does it take to stop Nadine? Trick question, Nadine KILLED all the bat-chickens!"

[nadinbrzezinski]

83. I'll admit to the two conures

And glad to help.

(Oh and no conure was actually hurt in the typing of this post. But at times they are attack birds)

[drm604]

71. K&R for Nadin

:toast:

[SalviaBlue]

72. I like Nadinbrzezinski too.

[AntiFascist]

73. K&R!...

Blessings, Nadin.

[Jackpine Radical]

79. We're having a party for Nadin…

Here:

[Tsiyu]

80. K&R

Never fear. At first they unrec you. Then your friends show up. Then they rec you. Then you win. :D

[Raksha]

91. Love it!

[sabrina 1]

98. Lol, yes, that is what happens, I don't know why they bother

as all it does is remind the rest of us to rec.

:kick: Great work Nadin, keep it up. And don't pay attention to the nay-sayers. They are on the wrong side of history. But you are not :-)

[slipslidingaway]

84. knr nt

[woo me with science]

86. K&R

[snappyturtle]

87. Big K&R! nt

[Blue_In_AK]

89. Absolutely.

Nadin rocks. :)

[Raksha]

90. K & R - She has great instincts and a feeling for the zeitgeist,

for the big picture. Such intuition is very rare, but it's hard to defend yourself when predicting something that hasn't happened YET. That leaves you wide open to all kinds of cheap shots and ridicule. I think Nadin is more than vindicated now.

[Fire Walk With Me]

92. This thread is at the top of the Greatest list on the front page

with fifty more Recs than the next one down.

As it should be.

:hi:

[inna]

93. can't help but wonder if this would be possible on DU3... my guess is, not...

[Raine]

94. ABSOLUTELY!!!! Nadin one the very best!

:applause: :patriot: :thumbsup:

[ClayZ]

95. Yay! K and R

[Paka]

96. I recd. Kudos to nadine...

and as you stated "all who have persistently spread the truth..." :kick:

[Jack Rabbit]

97. Hail, Nadin!!

K/R

[MrMickeysMom]

99. Yes.... I'm right there with you...

Props to you for stating this. I remember looking at that thread while on break at work, feeling a bit helpless. Now, I'm not so much that way, agreeing that the path is.... Oooooh.... started.

[The Wizard]

100. K&R

:kick:

[florida08]

101. absolutely

Thom Hartmann quoted her on her "dog whistle" piece from DU. It was quite perceptive on how the rightwing media uses language to send signals to their radicals. Great Job
:dem:

[leveymg]

102. KNR for Nadine. The fact that she has enemies on the Right tells me she's effective. Kudos.

She's also a sensitive, complex, caring person. :hi:

[loudsue]

103. Yay Nadin!!

She's been fighting the good fight for a long time around here! :applause:

[MannyGoldstein]

104. Indeed!

Persistence plus smarts plus good intentions will win every time.
