I can't wait for the WTO protests in spring here in Chicago. As usual I expect a whole bunch of property destruction, asshats in black hoodies and absolutely nothing accomplished from these demonstrations.

LOL! So hey, man, I'm like a traveler, man. Can I crash here man, it's only for a few days I promise, man. Strange they picked the communist Mayday as the day. No it's not, it makes perfect sense and fits with their message and goals.

Big Government has learned that a new Occupy strategy emerging across the country is to mobilize cross-country marches through mid-size cities where the movement has been absent, and reach out to sympathetic Americans by occupying their homes.

Once again, we learn that Adbusters (Kalle Lasn) has selected the date... May Day... a Soviet communist holiday, no less!

shocker.

I distinctly remember many OWS supporters here denying Lasn's control of the movement...

When one gets all his "news" from within the wing-nut echo chamber, it's hardly surprising he sees a world that reinforces his existing beliefs. Lasn clearly provides inspiration and ideas to OWS, but to state that he "controls" it contradicts what we factually know about how OWS is run and remains unsupported by anything substantive and objective. It's all just faithfully chanting the same claims over and over.

Nonetheless, the corrupt elite needs an army of apologists to deflect attention from OWS' main message. They will not have their looting spree interrupted by an informed and attentive democracy. Unfortunately for America, the right has been a reliable source of such apologists.

Hey genius, everything we know about Lasn's role is factual and widely reported across the entire media spectrum. Not only is it a well known fact that he created and launched OWS itself, he is also credited with authoring and orchestrating the plan for OWS' next phases. He is personally in daily contact with most major OWS General Assemblies across the country, and he himself has selected the times, dates, locations, and activities for many of the larger events we hear about.

In the post I responded to above, the link contains an interview with Ban Ho -- an organizer for the recent OWS march from NYC to Atlanta. During the interview, he was asked why the next big march is planned to culminate in a huge event on May Day, an old Soviet holiday. His response was that he doesn't know, exactly, but "that's the date that AdBusters (Kalle Lasn) selected" for the big OWS springtime event.

Face it, you're just a f'n puppet dancing around in an anarchist's fantasy. /congrats

Thinking about starting a Counter Occupy Wallstreet movement(COWS) or Occupy Occupy Wallstreet(OOWS).

It would work like this. Whenever the OWS decides to take over a place/building/venue and do nothing but stand there and demand changes to society(i.e being worthless and contributing nothing to actual society) then COWS would step in and occupy their same space. They would stand in their face, follow them around, crowd them out, occupy whatever they occupy, play loud music, etc just to annoy the shit outta of them so then OWS realize how annoying and worthless the whole OWS movement is to the rest of us.

COWS motto: We are the 99% who are sick and tired of a the .00001% who think they speak for the 99%!

Yea a tad drunk tonight but whatever..

Ha May Day parade. Silly white kids really put their money where their Che tshirts are. This whole spiel is becoming less relevant by the minute.

<- Was forced to participate in May Day parades growing up; all those people involved in the above can go fuck themselves.

Lots of the usual huffing and puffing, but you didn't offer a single bit of evidence to support your talking points. Just one empty assertion after another. By the end, you simply corroborated what I already said:
Lasn clearly provides inspiration and ideas to OWS, but to state that he "controls" it contradicts what we factually know about how OWS is run and remains unsupported by anything substantive and objective. It's all just faithfully chanting the same claims over and over.
So YOU face it. YOU are the "f'n puppet", doing the corrupt elites' dirty work, eagerly guzzling and the regurgitating on cue whatever propaganda they spew your way. Good boy.

Ah you are a Radical Righty here in Chicago, you must feel lost in a land of Liberals here.

I've lived all over the world and happen to have grown up in a communist country. I'm fairly sure my perspective on what the OWS loonies are hoping for has more basis than yours.

I've seen an actual revolt against repression in '89; what the likes of you are doing here is merely trying to find something to vindicate your life's failures. It's the rich that are keeping you down, amirite?

I think a little Hatebreed or Five Finger would work better... essentially drown out their "human microphone" with our own version of incoherent noise!

Keep telling yourself that, Pinocchio.

Lacking any meaningful evidence from you, that's exactly what I'll do. I'll keep basing my views on facts and data; you keep basing yours on prejudice and emotion-laced propaganda. Lap it up, boy. Be an obedient little tool for your corrupt masters. I'm sure if you keep doing tricks and begging for scraps, they'll pat you on the head occasionally.

AK: How do you see Adbusters&#8217; role in the Occupy movement?

KL: Well you know, we were the people who were lucky enough to sort of spark the whole thing just at the right moment with some of the posters we came up with and that hashtag Occupy Wall Street [#occupywallstreet], choosing that magical date, September 17th, that seemed to absolutely be the right moment. When a movement is ripe, then all it takes is one spark, and I think that spark did happen on September the 17th, and after that of course, the movement started to have a life of its own, and all we&#8217;ve really been doing is churning out our tactical briefings and trying to, to the extent that it&#8217;s possible, to sort of have influence on a movement like this, to infuse our Adbusters&#8217; tactical ideas into the movement and trying to keep our finger in the pie, so to speak.

So, I guess that numerous interviews with Lasn himself, OWS organizers, general assembly members, and random participants don't count, eh? NYT articles, MSM profiles, OWS blogs, etc.

Your nose is growing.
