If you don’t want to post up a wall of text on your tumblr, at least re-blog this as a link, there needs to be accurate information out there about this.

The media spin is pretty ridiculous on ALL the networks this morning.

tldr: a lot of occupiers have their hearts in the right place but through clever radicalization and misinformation (even as a supporter I wonder what’s circulating in their cardboard public library) have succumbed to the Democratic echo chamber and believe thinly veiled proto-socialism is the only defense against today’s standard of American capitalism; as though the only alternative to the color black must be its immediate opposite white, giving little attention to the shades of grey between the two. this is the kind of stuff that i agree with “wall street” on when they scoff at protesters. even though i wholly support the protesters. take a deep breath before considering that this is actually possible. 

haha yeah what’s with all this talk of “radical change”? the system works [between cycles of failure and corruption], so we should just accept the minor adjustments handed down to us from those in power.

also lol at ‘thinly veiled proto-socialism’ — dude probably thinks europe is run by marxists

Part of me sincerely believes one of the worst things to happen to protests was the Internet.  The mobilization potential is great, but the participation of unpredictable / chaotic of groups such as Anonymous and the use of Internet memes (which I read somewhere are alienating to the subjects of the protest, who don’t know what the fuck people are talking about) are doing more harm than good

reminder that 4chan is not a helpful ally to have
