34. lets say Im a typical working joe
I see the protests on teh news.. I think hey I like that.. protesting the bankers.. Let me go to their website and find out a little more.
so the go to their website.. and what do they see.

a bunch of mumbo jumbo
they see this headline at occupywallst.org
The resistance continues at Liberty Square, with free pizza ;)

they see this line further down
This is the eighth communiqué from the 99 percent. We are occupying Wall Street.

or this
We strolled around the plaza. We wrote songs with new friends. We argued about politics with each other, but not a politics of puppets: a politics for us. We fed the hungry and gave sleeping bags to the cold. We roughhoused. We talked to the world on our livestream. Most of all, we kept on organizing ourselves. Our library grew.



and working joe thinks what a bunch of stupid college kids and moves on... the protest fizzles and dies...

and you think with that kind of mess for a message your going to get any real mainstream support????

your fooling yourself
