First of all, they were 2 entirely different movements. One was pacifist and economy-based, and the other was Terrorist and religion-based.

Secondly, Occupy is pretty much dead.

Occupy would be closest to Hoovervilles. But, as the police "moved them on" they actually found jobs - and denied any affiliation with Occupy.

Occupy is dead. Move on. There are plenty of movements that we can and should support - but Occupy is dead.
