You cannot be pro occupy wall st and anti occupy the capital. We have more in common with Chuds than we do with purported left leaders. The power structure is reading the river correctly, why would they respond to us while we are embracing team color division?

Politicians are not responding to the will of the people because it is falsely fractured. The divide is exaggerated, intentionally, and it serves the purpose of staving off change.

This is a populist movement. “We can’t talk to Chuds” is a new embrace of what we’re supposed to be fighting against.

    I am totally going to talk to petit bourgeoise who is lashing out angrily at the big bourgeoise because they fear being proletarianized rather than finding solidarity with those below them.

    I am totally going to find middle ground with people who want to kill me and whose entire political identity is rabid, directionless anticommunism.

        Yeah I also listened to it, really broke down why there's no potential here. Working class revolts look and hit different, regardless of who's doing it
