[quote:izaak2:MV8xNjY1MDQ1XzI3NTE2NDg0XzgyMkUwMTdE] [quote:izaak2:MV8xNjY1MDQ1XzI3NTE2Mzc2X0VFRjc2QTFC] [quote:snark:MV8xNjY1MDQ1XzI3NTE1OTE1XzNFODZCNjFG] [quote:Robot Emotions:MV8xNjY1MDQ1XzI3NTE1MjkxX0ZENjcxN0VG] The top donors to the democratic party in the last presidential election were the Wall Street bankers. Hope and Change bought and paid for. The job of the "liberal left" structure in this country is to co-opt and nullify popular movements. That is their function for the money elite. One thing they fear is a popular movement that breaks outside of their established polarized system. Thus we are seeing the typical "left" apparatus being brought into play: unions, "community" organizations (such as ACORN), university faculty, etc, all attempting to make this their movement, when the reality is the first kernels of the Occupy Wall Street movement started with disgruntled and disenfranchised youth on social internet sites like 4chan who were tired of watching companies post "not hiring" signs along side their record profit reports. The next step is for Democratic politicians to steal the key talking points, twist them in a way that will assuage the masses, yet will not change one facet of the corporatist greed machine that keeps them in power. Thus, the masses will feel "heard," and will disperse and let the politicians handle the "change." All the while the Republican job will be to demonize, demoralize, and delegitimize the movement as the rantings of insane, unwashed layabouts with nothing better to do than disrupt "real" business. That's how the money powers want it to happen, at least. So far, so good. The game is rigged folks. There is no socialist plot, no facist plot, no left or right side to align with. It is all a shell game, rigged [b]by[/b] money powers, [b]for[/b] money powers. [/quote] THIS^^^ is the most intelligent post of the day on this subject. Karma for you. [/quote] Right there is no Black and White it is just an ugly shade of gray. Evil is everywhere. It is in democrats,republicans,russia,usa,socialism,capitalism,cartels,law enforcement,terrorism,intellenece agencies...etc all controlled from the top of the pyramid, those who have money to control and write the policies of the Globe. [/quote] They appeal to peoples emotion to divide and conquer, Hatred of different scapegoats to prevent unity of the People. [/quote]

“Professors are asking their classes to take the day to actually go to this rally,” Rivera said.
Some students at Brooklyn College heeded the call and joined the protest early Wednesday afternoon. About 150 students walked out of class at Brooklyn College to join the Wall Street protesters.
