So the rich got together and created a market for right wing propaganda at a time

when there wasn't huge demand for it. But they put money and wedge issues into play, and many people were convinced to vote for this GOP and its right wing views based on hate and fear of others, not on what would be best for them if their feelings had been left unmolested over the years. And the right demanded equal time for their propaganda on the news. They went nuts when a black man was elected president and became the tea party. They no longer cared what their economic self interest was and voted that way. They got what they voted for: no employment and a crashing middle class. Then the OWS (99%) came along and woke people up a little. People took pleasure in being connected with a wider group all of a sudden, to fight for against what truly is hurting them: crony capitalism and crony political economy. And they felt relief at not having to feel hate and fear all the time.
How do get this narrative out there.
I don't know. How do get this ?
I doubt you even wrote that post.
You need to mind your own Canadian bees wax and stick to what you know best. Food.

2. I can't go to my local occupy group. I try and talk about occupy with others. I talk about it a lot
online. That is about it.
This we already know. You're an obese shut in. All you do is talk about food, what you eat, want to eat, are eating, will eat, dream of eating. You occupy the couch all day. Nobody cares what you think. Can you vote here ? Nuff said.

4. St. Catherines, Ontario? Another Cannuck? I'm from Ottawa.
Isn't this a great site the DU. I've learnt so much about politics here. And we need to keep up on what is going on in the USA because, if the neocons have their way, Canada is only about two decades behind the US. Most of the seniors I hang around with here are pretty liberal and don't want to see the right wing fantasies play out in Canada. Which is a relief. I think Occupy will reorient the left/centre around the world. We certainly need to bring our A game to politics because the right plays to keep and would have us all living like people in Pakistan live if they had their way.
The DU is for DUmbasses that are social misfits. Like you. And stop lying. You hang with no one.
It's only you, your liberal parents and your brother. As for Occupy, BWAHAHAHAHA, it's trending.
Don't hold your breath there apple butt.
And bring that A game. Bring it !

6. I don't see the 99% as the descendants of Toronto or Seattle because those events involved riots

and were not geared to the multiple realities that the 99% represents. Toronto and Seattle were far to the left in their views or trade and such. The 99% doesn't pretend to take one stand of issues like world trade. It focuses more on the inputs & outcomes of politics & policy choices such as the 1% having bought and paid for government that benefits only them. That is why the 99% will make a difference in the world, because it represents as many realities as there are people, not just the platform of the far left.
She's just trying to make some inner net friends. Occupying gets lonely between meals.
BWAHAHAHAHA !!!!! Apple Butter.
