In reply to the discussion: Occupy Wall Street just reoccupied Zucotti Park! [View all]randome
(34,845 posts)I've finally realized why every conversation about something OWS does devolves into arguments over its very purpose.
It's because even its most vocal proponents realize that not everything done in the name of OWS is a good thing and they are in denial about it.
We all want to believe in something greater than ourselves that we can belong to and support and nurture for a better society.
So far, OWS is a bland representation of that desire. It has done some good but it falters as often as it succeeds.
Can anyone tell me what the point of sneaking into Zuccotti Park was? If it was just to insist that OWS has relevance, then they have already lost that fight.
Of course, according to many OWS proponents, OWS has already won so I guess you could say...game over.
