I think anyone who has spent enough time around St Pauls / LSX recently to form an opinion would probably find that you are more in step with the prevailing vibe at Occupy than the "psuedo-revolutionary". Bloody revenge fantasies are just that ....

But Occupy has achieved sweet FA. It doesnt even know what it wants to achieve. Its wonderfully well-meaning heart in the right place stuff (& I've bunged into the crowdsourcing Ians linked to elsewhere), but its nothng more than a temporary focal point for a eneral vague feeling of injustice. Its also attracted its share of comlpete nutters, conspiraloons with barely concealeed racist agendas (It's the lizards! Who are all Jews). To be fair to Occupy, those people were told to fuck off as far as possible, but its still full of a disparate bunch who have no idea how to achieve their (ill-defined) goals.


The goal is to engender thoughtfulness. The goal IS debate. Would you be any more impressed if they dressed up as a cross between the MC5 and something out of The Warriors?
