#OccupyWallStreet
 
anyone else been following this?

Absolutely entertaining.


The people, united, will never be defeated.

It is pretty cool but it isn't going to change anything.

KagomJack 2011-10-09 07:56 PM

I haven't been. Wanna give me a rundown?

D3V 2011-10-09 11:25 PM

um, tl;dr

about 100 people had a sit-in on wall-street, and twitter has blown it up to exponential levels, it's great to see.

*edit* Goddamnit, I need to get on Zel more.

Just google it. It's a little over 20 days old and it's spreading around the nation.

KagomJack 2011-10-10 12:10 AM

Neat shit. I'll have to really read up on it tomorrow.

JPMorgan just "donated" something like 1-2 million dollars to the NYPD for their protection, lmfao.

The Revolution has begun.

!King_Amazon! 2011-10-18 10:56 PM

We'll see. I'm not going to hold my breath.

KagomJack 2011-10-19 10:26 PM

Same. I still agree with your earlier statement an armed revolution would fare better.

jamer123 2011-10-22 06:58 PM

Ironically ive been telling people to rebel for years ...

!King_Amazon! 2011-10-22 09:32 PM

That isn't ironic at all. Ironic would be if you were telling people to rebel and then one of those people ended up killing you in the process or something.

KagomJack 2011-10-23 09:20 AM

It's sad you have to explain what irony really is.

Skurai 2011-10-24 09:06 PM

I'll Occupy your Wall Street. ;)

But in all seriousness, I've been watching this for a while. The Priestess was actually one of the 100.

Isn't blood irony?

!King_Amazon! 2011-10-27 03:51 AM

It would probably be more accurate to say that blood is watery. Sure, blood has iron in it, but compared to other stuff the iron is pretty insignificant.

Skurai 2011-10-27 07:03 AM

Okay, Magneto.

Good luck staging an armed revolution against our government. If the status quo is threatened, it's very likely that many will die. But that's the price you have to pay I guess.

!King_Amazon! 2011-10-30 10:41 AM

Yeah, and armed revolution would certainly not be easy. Things like SWAT are basically anti-civilian tools to be used by the government. Tools with serious training. Plus, civilians cannot have technology good enough to even have a chance in an armed revolution, so there's that, too. Honestly if the elite didn't need us to stand on, they would probably just destroy us all.
