You Still Don't Get It?

Oct 30th, 2011
by F. Grey Parker with a hat tip to Tonye for his metaphorical wisdom

A man who is very ill goes to the doctor. He explains, in great detail, all of the symptoms he is experiencing. His situation is dire. He can feel it. So many things are wrong that his list of ailments is almost overwhelming.

The doctor pretends to listen, but is largely disinterested. Finally, in exasperation, he asks the patient, "well, what the Hell am I supposed to do about it?"

Welcome to the Occupy Movement.

The Demands Of Occupy Wall Street

Oct 2nd, 2011

Everyone who has been asking for a list of demands from the Occupy Wall Street movement, a group of critics which has included myself, just got one.


Anonymous Central has posted the following statement:

"This was unanimously voted on by all members of Occupy Wall Street last night, around 8pm, Sept 29. It is our first official document for release. We have three more underway, that will likely be released in the upcoming days: 1) A declaration of demands. 2) Principles of Solidarity 3) Documentation on how to form your own Direct Democracy Occupation Group. This is a living document. you can receive an official press copy of the latest version by emailing c2anycga@gmail.com.

Yesterday, I wrote at some length about the inherent problems with the intentionally diffused and leaderless structure of the Occupy Wall Street action.

There was a great deal of response, more positive than not.
