No, what "they stand for" isn't debatable  . Why don't you list the specific Occupy demands that you say are not palatable in mainstream America? Because the mainstream embracing seems to be increasing constantly - look at what Cleveland just did. What did the President discuss today? What happened in the halls of Congress today?
But basically, you are saying that the very people that could benefit from OWS actions are attacking them because ... they have low attention spans and don't like Occupy methods?
That's kind of insulting, don't you think?
Yes, peaceful legal public protest and wanting politicians to change laws to get money out of politics is so radical and offensive. |
You wanted an explanation and I gave one. Few people in this country even know who their congressman/woman is so acting like the common man has his finger on the pulse of daily political posturing is silly. If that is insulting...well turn on tv and see what Americans watch. I dont think that people are attacking OWS they are just kind of tired of it. Unlike you who sees all these great things happening, most people could care less what a bunch of stiffs in Cleveland think, what the president is speaking about now or banks losing customers. Now if Kim Kardashian joined the protests then it is a whole new ball game.
