All of this is for nothing ultimately. It plays to the mainstream like "oh, look at those crazy anarchists trying to wreak havoc. Oh, cops shot 25 of them. Well, that's what you get when you go out there trying to create mayhem". I mean, people here just don't get it! They don't understand what's at the ROOT of the protest. It was very annoying with the Occupy crowd...they couldn't articulate why they were upset, why they were there. It played on TV like "omg, look at those babbling druggies and losers camping and shitting and raping in our parks".

Protests, to have any impact on those asleep, should number in the millions. MILLIONS. Then the mainstream would be scratching their heads and saying "what am I missing that so many of my fellow countrymen are all protesting?". And they might seek more information. And it might sink in, for some anyway.

Does anyone have a feel for just how many are asleep vs awake in the US?
