Would you include Ron Paul among the Republicans who would "make it worse" versus Obama?
Their choices are someone like Obama who implicitly endorses many of these problems, and a Republican who enthusiastically endorses them and pushes to make it even worse. Of course they will vote for Obama, what other rational decision would there be?

Protests against corporate greed turns violent
The "Occupy Wall Street" protests that began in Canada and spread to cities across the U.S. moved Saturday to Asia and Europe
Police were out in force in Rome as some 100,000 protesters were expected
Protesters nicknamed "the indignant" also marched in other cities across the world.
In Frankfurt, continental Europe's financial capital, some 5,000 people protested in front of the European Central Bank, while in London, around 500 people marched from St. Paul's cathedral to the nearby stock exchange.

I'm pretty sure that's gotta be some tea party idiocy, they have a tendency to email retarded chops around. Most of them think photoshop is a highschool home ed class.
case point
I am pretty sure Moore is in the 1%

If /b/ taught me anything, most of those 53% are photochops.LULZ
Some in the 1% are in the right supporting the 99%, just as some in the 99% are suckers fighting against their own interest for the 1%.
So 3 people who want really radical ideas, and a couple idiots thrown in, out of thousands of protesters. Meanwhile, if you actually look at the signs in the background you will see the real message.
I don't really understand people who are against it. The main goal seems to be ending corporatocracy/kleptocracy. But I guess those opposed are happy the way our government serves corporations and money?
There may be secondary things that people want, such as a fairer economy as per this guy:
But if you think they want communism or anarchy as a whole, I am pretty sure you are delusional, and that is a lot like saying Anarchist420 speaks for all of Anandtech P&N.
There are tons of anti-captialists and communists part of this movement. This group has no focus so how can you claim that what they want is a fairer economy like the poster of one guy?
I was in times square last night, it was pretty cool.
I like how when the movement has popular ideas you claim it is unfocused, but when it has unpopular ideas you claim those are indicative of the whole group. It's really clear that you've decided that it is against your ideological football team, so you need to find reasons to oppose it.
I was in times square last night, it was pretty cool. So far the reaction from right wing people shows me more the power of right wing opinion makers to affect people's opinions than it does anything else.
Some in the 1% are in the right supporting the 99%, just as some in the 99% are suckers fighting against their own interest for the 1%.

Ok that does it you have me convinced that ALL the protesters are Socialist that's like me saying that EVERYONE in the Tea Party are White supremacists.
no.Fair enough but the left here has been bashing the tea party for a year and your description could easily be for them. IMO the occupy people have some legitimate complaints but they are much worse than the tea party in terms of stupidity/radicalism.
It could also be Halik that they don't want their picture shown on the internet, kind of like anonymous forum posters.
