Save the whales.
Save the planet.
Be a vegan.
Stop nuclear power.
Blah, blah, blah.

Plus, there was this camping out thing. Anybody with half a brain could have predicted that the city health department would shut it down. They should have gone home every evening, or to the youth hostels, or to friends' houses, or to a hotel. And returned the next morning. INet networking could have worked it out. But this insane commune camping in the city parks deal would surely bring out the gendarmes against them eventually.

The occupy organizers were anything but.

It is a shame. They never had focus. And that's why they failed. They made it a camping trip. That's why they failed.

Occupy. The most disorganized and counter-productive protest in history. They not only didn't help; they hurt their own professed goals.

I won't say what I really think about Occupy. It's sufficient that their harm is at an end.
