"But what I see these days, is increasingly a "movement" that doesn't do a whole lot of moving... unless the police tell them to, and then it's all about tugging those forelocks and scurrying off. I see ignorant kids much like yourself rolling their eyes about the notion of becoming politically involved, because, like, that's what the man wants, man.
Like I said, I support the goals of the occupy movement... I think a lot of hte people in it are useless cocks, but I support the goals. My fear is that this movement will end up like the hippies - stagnant and useless, accomplishing nothing becuase the participants refused to do anything, and instead hoped that a lot of posturing and bad singing would magically make things better."
Sooo true.
