The power of the Occupy movement is that it expresses the widespread disgust with the elites, and the deep desire for justice and fairness that is essential to all successful revolutionary movements. The Occupy movement will change and mutate, but it will not go away. It may appear to make little headway, but this is less because of the movement’s ineffectiveness and more because decayed systems of power have an amazing ability to perpetuate themselves through habit, routine and inertia. The press and organs of communication, along with the anointed experts and academics, tied by money and ideology to the elites, are useless in dissecting what is happening within these movements. They view reality through the lens of their corporate sponsors. They have no idea what is happening.

Dying regimes are chipped away slowly and imperceptibly. The assumptions and daily formalities of the old system are difficult for citizens to abandon, even when the old system is increasingly hostile to their dignity, well-being and survival. Supplanting an old faith with a new one is the silent, unseen battle of all revolutionary movements. And during the slow transition it is almost impossible to measure progress.

"The Black Panthers, the American Indian Movement, the Weather Underground, the Red Brigades and the Symbionese Liberation Army arose in the ferment of the 1960s. Violent radicals are used by the state to justify harsh repression. They scare the mainstream from the movement. They thwart the goal of all revolutions, which is to turn the majority against an isolated and discredited ruling class." These in-fact, alongside those who choose to engage through "socially acceptable"(but whos society do you live in?) avenues of protest, are essential in altering the course of the oppressed majority. Without more radical initiatives the status quo can never be changed. Those who demonize the protectors of their tyrannized people are ignorant and complacent in a system that strikes fear and obedience in those it wishes to hold down. There is a new Jim crow through our prison systems and 'war on drugs.' Why do we stay silent? Because we have to exist within the system,which means you must work for the system in order to survive. Even if only part-time, the dependents on civilization means consuming. Consumer base= consumption the the planet's resources, health, sustainability, animal populations (including humans) who are decimated by the the perverted sense of divine right. Only those who are sick, having no thoughts other than their immediate comfort or profits, would use logic combining exploitation and the teachings of a God in a corpro-suto religion. Subsistence farming, elevated learning of numerous teachings, AND the right of humans to stand together using ALL tactics to insight the positive change for everyone. There are no Utopians, that means there is not an ultimate end to achieve. So those who condemn your fellow brothers; without radical action your voices are silent, without a intelligible voice the actions are irrelevant.
