It was obvious of course to those who did understand it that the initial, and hugely successful beginning phase was just that, the first phase. OWS moved into another phase over the past few years, which I doubt you were even aware of frankly.
Now that we know for sure that there were actual plans to 'kill the leaders' their refusal to name any leaders was brilliant, something you and others NEVER understood.
You are in zero position to offer any 'advice' on a movement you were opposed to from the beginning.
And THIS phase is just one more step towards the next one.
This his is NOT the first OWS member who ran for office, but I wouldn't expect you to know that, you were mostly busy in every OWS thread trying, although not very successfully, to denigrate the movement which as you were told many times, was in its infancy.
It isn't going away, because the issues are not even close to being resolved, and there will be many, many more aspects to this Social Justice movement as you were reminded over and over again, has always been the case with any movement that resonates as quickly and as overwhelmingly as this one did. It was and is a huge threat of course, which we saw by their despicable reaction, to those who prefer the status quo.
