This is ridiculous. See: "Occupy Wall Street protesters driven by varying goals."
Actually, they have no goals. I'm reminded of Discharge, in any case, "Protest and Survive." These dudes are still protesting and surviving after almost thirty years. We're still on course for the savage mutilation, I guess:
The savage mutilation of the human race is set on courseBONUS: Well, perhaps they're actually serious about this protest and survive stuff. See Occupy Wall Street's, "Declaration of the Occupation of New York City" (at Democratic Underground and Memeorandum):
Protest and survive, protest and survive.
It's up to us to change that course
Protest and survive, protest and survive...
As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known...And at Firedoglake, "The Goal and Message of Occupy Wall Street."
