#Goldman Sachs has 73 offices worldwide

And we're going to have some fun in front of every one of them!

Hey all you wild spirits out there,

Here is how the Global Spring begins:

A few lone wolves among us start pasting posters in and around Goldman Sachs HQ at 200 West Street, Manhattan, New York. Groups of two or three turn up and hand out leaflets at their branch office at Maria de Molina 6-5a, Madrid, Spain. People start gathering and having fun outside Goldman's offices in 50 cities...

Then . . . on Thursday May 23, when Goldman Sachs holds its annual shareholders meeting at 222 South Main Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, 500 people turn up and solidarity games are held across the world. It gets serious when thousands start playing on September 17 in front of Goldman's branches in Los Angeles, Toronto, Moscow, London, Buenos Aires, Melbourne, Beijing, Mexico City. The media picks up on this fledgling global revolt. . .

And, one fine day, the whole thing suddenly catches fire . . . #GOLDMAN becomes a rallying cry for people everywhere to rise up against the financial fraudsters who have been fucking around with our lives for far too long.

When the moment is ripe, all it takes is a spark.

for the wild,

Is this a joke? Or do you really believe that hashtags are the prologue to revolution? If the utter futility of "Occupy Wall Street" demonstrated anything, it's that it takes a lot more than some adolescent desire to "shut it down" to affect major changes in economic policy. So please, blast Pussy Riot, sleep on the sidewalk, make wacky handmade signs - I'm sure those weary Goldman employees could use some entertainment on the way to work.

Can't say I agree... It had significant impact and defined the narrative of mainstream politics while changing the attitudes of many citizens.

"Prologue to revolution"? No, and I don't think Adbusters see it that way, either. You seem to confuse teleology with causality. "Shut it down" actions are nothing more, or less, than a game, an artistic action, congruent with AB's expressed intention to coax people from spectator to participant in the quest for an ecology of our mental commons. Participate. How do you participate? What action do you advocate? Do you want a "revolution"? What is that supposed to mean? There is no real shutting it down, short of a cataclysm of some sort. There is awareness, and the change it inspires. And of freaking COURSE outlandish and seemingly impossible, absurd actions are helpful, even required. Otherwise, what do we got? Guns? Writing to our congresspeople?
