SEPTEMBER 17 is the first anniversary of the "Occupy Wall Street" movement, and also the first anniversary of The Truthless Reconciler and American Explicator. At the moment, it seems that the TTR has fared much better, endured and thrived more.
In several dozen cities throughout the united states commemorative rallies are being held, but there is no indication that the turnout will be anything a year ago, and, unlike last year, there is no indication that the protest movement will last more than a day, or, for that matter, that it will even be a protest.
Merely acknowledging the first anniversary is apparently the only intent. Will there even be any speakers reminding us that the changes which the movement expouses have not been implemented, nor has there been any discernible progress towards them?
Predictably, conservatives belittle the movement, as if any conservative would be clean after camping out a week. This ridicule attempts to conceal the fact that most americans, most of the human race, agrees with Occupy Wall Street. The masses don't know their own potential power.
Predictably, Occupy Wall Streeet, after an impressive run, eventually fizzled out, because it lacked defined purpose and cohesion, and remained instead nothing but an amorphous collection of participants and causes.
Flash Bulletin! The turnout in new york city was fairly good today, but over a hundrfed people were arrested, which not be the most positive publicity, and the actual plan was to prevent wall street from doing business today, which also might not have been the best of all possible plans. So, it appears that at least the folks in new york had more on their minds than mere commemoration, much more...
A successful revolution requires long sustained, devoted, intelligent effort. The Occupy Wall Streeters might be more successful by trying to enlighten middle of the road undecided people ( people who have not yet decided that a revolution is necessary, but are considering the possibility)
about what the Occupy movment expouses.
Because most of what they expouse, when clearly articulated, is quite popular among the masses, especially greater economic and political equality. Getting thrown in jail by trying to disrupt wall street indicates a preference for violence and chaos, rather than social equality. Where is the Thomas Paine of Occupy Wall Street?
