A disgruntled grifter co-opting the occupy brand for profit.

A march hiring people to social network.

And, a proliferation of marches and sites diluting, and obfuscating genuine grassroots.

And/or the creation of suspicion amongst legitimate organizers that they are being infiltrated, surveilled etc.

And/or surveilling participants and supporters in actuality.

And/or foment cynicism, pessimism, and invite criticism to discourage those who would be casually supportive.



The 1% must never sleep. Oh wait, , (as if they actually do anything themselves).
