Anonymous Joins #OCCUPYWALLSTREET
Image text by Left Righty, Anonymous image by lio leiser
Jammers, dreamers, patriots,
Anonymous has just released a video communique endorsing #OCCUPYWALLSTREET. Using language from our first Tactical Briefing, the video calls on protesters to adopt the nonviolent Tahrir-acampadas model. On the 17th of September, it says, "flood into lower Manhattan, set up tents, kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a few months … Once there, we shall incessantly repeat one simple demand in a plurality of voices."
See also signs of support for S17 on Anonymous's Twitter and websites.
Meanwhile S17 is surging ahead internationally. Simultaneous occupations of financial districts are now being planned in New York City, Madrid, Milan, London, Paris and San Francisco. With a bit of luck, this list of participating cities will expand.
If we can pull together just the right mix of nonviolence, tenacity and strategic smarts, S17 could be the beginning of the global revolution we've all been dreaming about for so long … wouldn't that be lovely.
for the wild,

The tides are changing. A storm is swelling.
In real-time. Off shore and abroad.
Global revolution is real. It is now.
Led by a spring of youth who feel misled.
Who have gotten degrees and don't want to beg?
Steeped in debt they want jobs and to be fed.
As the global economy teeters on the edge.
A cliff so high no one can see the end.
What do we need to save us?
Many would think masked men.
A group of unknown hackers with no friends.
Digital heroes grown from the comic books they read.
A mythos grown from the movies they defend.
You can see it in the streets.
You can read it online.
A storm is brewing that knows no borders.
Clicktivist ready to protest with their bodies.
Against the tyranny their parents built.
Against the freedoms for which so much blood was spilt.
Forgive them, for they know not what they do.
They do not see the decades of social justice work done for me and you.
They do not feel the freedom they so easily abuse.
They see unemployment lines and dead end jobs.
They see all the broken promises Western culture robbed.
They do not remember from which we came.
The struggles of hard labor so many generations made.
For instant gratification is what they have been force fed.
They do not see the opportunity from the books they read.
For they live in status updates.
They tweet and retweet to their mates
A flock of birds who fly to beat
The drum of a revolution.
Coming to a neighborhood near you.

Another form of protest is to pull all of our money out of the markets, banks, etc. and then send the government the bill demanding repayment on interest on what we've lent them and request they pony up. Slam them everyday with more letters, emails, etc. than they know what to do with. Two pronged. Hit the Wall Streeters where they hurt, hit the puppets with so much aggravation that they finally capitulate because it'd become far easier to end the tide of unending spam than to keep their 'handlers' in the megacorporations happy.
