Occupy vs the Anti-Social Justice Movement [View all]

Most members of the Anti-Social Justice Movement are just jealous because they know deep down that they will never have the courage to get off the couch, shut off the TV, get a life, and really do something.

They fawningly obey their 1% corporate masters, lovingly kissing their gilded asses for the mere chance to serve them in the smallest way possible. Any threat to the fragile security bestowed upon them by their self-acknowledged superiors leads to immediate attacks on the barbarians who dare challenge the status quo of their beloved plutarchy.

The rest of the members of the Anti-Social Justice Movement are the 1% themselves.

These are *snarf* typical examples of members of the bipartisan Anti-Social Justice Movement conservatives who hate Occupy. Conservatives universally hate Occupy







In contrast, these are typical examples of socially conscious people love Occupy. The cops, mmm, not so much. Most liberals love Occupy:






Which one are you? Which group best represents your feelings toward Occupy?
