Hey, #OWSers—Quit Whining About Your Student Loans
There is no immediate rush, nor should there be, to issue demands. The horizontal democracy format of the Occupy movement's General Assemblies is less about getting things done than giving voices to the voiceless. For most citizens, who have been shut out of politics by the fake two-party democracy and the corporate media, simply talking and being heard is an act of liberation. At some point down the road, however, the movement will come to a big ideological fork: do they try to the system? Or tear it down?
