(62,325 posts)time the PEOPLE went Global. The Corps, our Police Departments, Military and our Government and politicians have been Global for a long time. Most of us did not know this and were trying to deal with issues we thought were confined to our own countries. This turned out not to be true.
Yes, they are and will pass laws to try to silence any movement that threatens them. So the people will have to become very creative in order to overcome their efforts.
The beginning of OWS was very effective and as we saw, because of that the PTBs went all out to crush it, in much them same here in every city and in other countries. Almost as if it was coordinated on a Global Level. Starting with evicting people from the public square, then trumping up false charges against them, beating them, using Robo Cops, armies of them, who all look the same now, no matter which country they are in.
But the G8 and G20 conferences and NATO, as you say, are off limits to the people they claim to represent. Maybe it's time to set up a People's organization, a Corp, using their own rules to do so, and demand that that entity have access to the inside shenanigans perpetrated at these Global Events which appear to be merely Global conferences to protect the wealthy.
Or, the people could have their own versions of the G8 and G20 Conferences. Make them legitimate, within the laws eg, and appoint people to represent each country. Then make sure they get huge promotion around the world. Of course there will be no protection for them, unless they hire Mercenaries. But what could they do about a legitimate Global Organization meeting to discuss the people's business?
They could probably ask the UN for assistance to protect them. And who would they need protection from? Not the people, but from the rulers and their Corporate sponsors. That in itself would highlight how bad things are and how these organizations are not in any way working for the people.
