Thread: Remember Occupy Wall Street

Wow....glad we got all of THAT solved


At least they got their points across right? At least they caused change right?


It's not like there were just a bunch of trustafarian zombie hippies out there enjoying "camping"

I dont think the majority of them knew the depth of the problem behind what they thought they were protesting about. Hairy unkempt sheep the lot of them.

Wall street and bankers cant be fixed!

Your government threw 30 trillion at them and they lost that 'somewhere' and they dont have to answer for it either. That was your tax dollars in a bail out.

Funny stuff I recon you got hairy sheep and ones in suits pointing at the hairy ones.

Hippies could not do a thing against the likes of that even if the majority of them knew about it which going by the odd interview they didnt have a clue why they were there they sounded like that Miss world contestant when asked why many Americans cant find America on a map. She answered by pointing at some third world countries about their education and some thing or another, very funny stuff; shift the blame game when you dont want to answer for something.

He she is: Presenting the new Mrs FinitoElDinamita.

Andre, it wasn't about the banks, it wasn't about Wall Street, it wasn't about politicians...it was a group of people who have become disenchanted with "The American Dream". These people are SO beset by entitlement they felt as though they were PROMISED a job, PROMISED prosperity, PROMISED to succeed. They want to move the "everybody gets a trophy" mentality from childhood to adulthood.

What I was taught and what those people were protesting are 2 mutually exclusive ideas. I was taught accountability, work hard, you may not win but you always give your best, life isn't fair but you never stop trying to achieve your goals. Meanwhile their ideas are: I'm owed because I did x,y,&z, the system isn't fair, I want to grow up to go to school, I want to get paid to go to school, people that have had success have lied cheated and stolen money and they OWE me.

Which side of the isle are you on?

Wall Street isn't perfect, but Capitalism and the United States way of life allows for upward mobility like no other place on Earth. It rewards the hard workers, the innovators, the people with big ideas......what did Occupy Wall Street offer? It offered scabies, rape, drug overdoses, and gave you the chance to be a victim....is THAT what we want out of the next generation? Victims

Here are some of those scruffy Occupy Wall Street hippies:




And this is why they're demonstrating. Pilots on food stamps:



But hey, so long as a big chunk of the country can be persuaded that it's a few scruffy trusafarians instead of an increasingly large part of the population then that's great. For as long as that's possiblr it means people like me can take an ever-increasing percentage of the ever-decreasing earnings of people like you. So as long as you continue to support us we'll appreciate you. Thanks!

Now from having argued with you on here I know that there are some people you really can fool all of the time. But eventually enough of your compatriots are going to go from supporting the status quo to supporting movements that descend from Occupy. And when they reach critical mass we'll call them terrorists and use all those repressive laws you supported after 9/11 to repress any kind of Occupy movement and preserve the status quo.

Also, too. America does offer upward mobility like no other country on earth. Of all the developed countries ranked on social mobility America comes dead last.

Dead last, with socialist tyrannies like Finland and Norway coming top for social mobility! Now at this point I'd normally post a graph or a pie chart to prove my point but due to your well-known hostility to facts and evidence I've stopped posting them. Although in this particular case I've found a pie chart I think you'll be able to understand. Here it is Lyle:




I've told you this before but the information has long ago fallen off the tiny shelf in your head that functions as your brain. Like I said, some of the people you really can fool all of the time.

Haha...Kirkland you really are a simpleton. Pilots on food stamps eh....well 47 MILLION people are on food stamps Kirkland so #1 I'm not surprised #2 I'm doubly not surprised that airline pilots have it tough as that's not an industry that is easy to be profitable in as the American taxpayer no doubt knows (seeing how we've had to bail those airlines out numerous times)


I am pleased as punch that YOU KirklandLaing stand side by side with your dirty ignorant hippy trust fund baby brothers and sisters for the cause of.........


Wait, what was their cause again



and didn't those people vote FOR Obama as well? The very same Obama who brought in Wall Street fat cats like Larry Summers and crooked lobbyists to be in his cabinet?



Yeah, they REALLY changed things didn't they. It's not like under Obama that wealth inequality has gotten worse.....OH WAIT

Income Inequality Worse Under Obama Than George W. Bush


IT HAS!!!


Occupy Wall Street, was, is, and will always be stupid and pathetic. A bunch of entitled punks whining about how they can't get jobs with degrees in Music Appreciation or Gender Studies.....here's an idea OFFER SOMETHING OF VALUE AND YOU WILL GET PAID! Whether it's a new product, a way to market that product, or mere work ethic....but nah they were all bums, entitled idiotic SELFISH bums.

No side of the isle.
You are being had Lyle, you already have been had; to the exact sum I mentioned by the same people you mentioned, Wall street bankers.

That is what got more people thinking and the ball rolling, then the hippies bought into it or were invited on numbers,that was a mistake most were there for more for themselves.

I agree with what you think about them for the most part,there are a few though (not many)who self sustain without Government assistance and dont ask for more about doing less.

Out here when they are educated into the work force they have to pay back grants and loans they took to get there.Trouble is big busniess looks after their own families first in regards to positions vacant and fair enough I suppose.So these people go back into the system usually into education or out into hospitality industry over qualified. Thats a problem in deteriorating open market.

These hippies you focus on are the least of your worries though. Its a nice distraction from whats worse and its a fair reflection on your own better character and upbringing.

You are still being had.

Lyle, now I wasnt gonna retaliate but you have forced me to you fucking troll. So let me get this little tidbit of genius straight in case I have misunderstood you. You are saying that people should not bother protesting anything in life simply when you do not agree with their agenda or even their lack of one. Lyle as an American you should know we all have the right to protest and even though they were a rag-tag bunch of cappuccino-drinking wanna-be yuppies, they still had the right and for you to timply it is pointless or idiotic to exercise that right proves that YOU, my good toot-tooty suck-sucky duck-duck, are the moron. @El Kabong alias @El Hombre Loco que no puede intender

Andre the protest had no message and no effect.

Brockton, I never argued that those idiots didn't have the right to protest they just had no message and were selfish in what they wanted...a living wage Like you get paid to fucking BREATHE or you get paid outrageously for doing a menial job. They also wanted their college loans paid.....it's typical "everybody gets a trophy"/"You're all special snowflakes" bed wetting liberal horse shit.

George Carlin covered this when he ranted about child worship. Little Johnny never hears the truth about himself until he gets to the real world "You're fired Johnny, you suck"....those are character building moments in life and those OWS pussies can't handle it.

I seem to remember something similar happening in England where a load of twats camped out in front of St Pauls cathedral in London and told everyone that the church was capitalist because they charge £14 to attend one service even though its all free With all the Occupy movements most of the people attending them don't have a clue what they're about and famous people can wear 'Occupy' shirts to look alternative and, you guessed it, make more money

And wear their stupid Guy Fawkes masks without noticing the irony that Fawkes was a huge fan of the Pope.

OWS was 100% pure garbage it was dreamed up by AdBusters, funded by the same old liberal hack groups that consistently try to upset the applecart like IWW.

"I don't believe in the system MAAAAAAAN!"

Well if you like living in a house and sleeping in a bed you'll get with the fucking program, life doesn't start and stop on your fucking whim! Just a bunch of entitled brats whining that now they have completed school or are getting ready to complete school they're no longer special little snowflakes who can breeze through life just because they can memorize what's in a book. OWS was one of the most selfish things I have EVER seen in my life, kids are starving in 3rd world countries and those jackasses are getting free meals, whining about debt THEY AGREED TO PAY OFF, and whining about their degrees in Gender Studies being no good in the working world.....dumb, arrogant, audacious, selfish, cunts that's who made up the OWS movement....lazy, dirty, hippies who are unemployable because their attitudes towards work are so poor.

Theres good and bad in all groups but when a few build platforms on hatred its eventually self defeating.

Thanks. I had to trim my original thought down some to that sentence or deep offense could be taken.
