(14,223 posts)How many folks here think i posted this to bash the movement? no, i am truly interested in how to have the conversation with friends and family who say that this is not working or that the movement is BS...
I have a small occupy in my town that I am involved with, less than a dozen people.
but my actual interest is how to REACH OUT to those who think they are better off and therefore don't count as the 99%...(apparently even the local convenience store guy...)
I want to be better informed, and yes, i read the stats and can use some of those facts to back up the reason for the movement.
But my original post is about how to redirect the conversation when someone has a preconceived notion that the movement is making waves and that they should be good little protestors and stay in their 'free speech zones'
