@RegularGonzalez:disqus OWS has captured the mainstream unlike any non-astroturf protest since the Vietnam War

@avclub-06b993d01417d43f1d3c125d94e0433d:disqus  No. Just the collapse of the free market system

While I would argue that the perception of the protest consisting "in large part of wasters, hippies, and free-riders" is more a machination of the mainstream media than anything else, for the sake of keeping things simple, I'll even cede your point.

I understand it perfectly. It's just that I've been spending well over a month actively involved in this movement. So, to hear some douchebag online complain about all of us, while we're actively busting our ass to help him, is frustrating.

Huh?

You do realize a huge part of the reason why they're protesting is the  utter lack of gainful employment.

Is being maced, shot with rubber bullets, and tear-gassed not considered fighting now?

"Liked" so hard

"I agree with OWS' principles, and I believe in what it's doing, but contrary to my own self-interest, I am going to hate it because… um….."

No. It's not.

I wish "Dr. Dre Lifechangers" existed so bad

Strange. Amelie is usually so good at picking the low-hanging fruit

Oh, that would be so fucking cool

I'm going to say the cynical dumb television network with the awful shows is more annoying than the people spending days outside in the cold, with the threat of arrest hanging over them, fighting for income equality

I think your equating "sees as idiotic/evil" with "doesn't understand." The "When Jesus comes back" joke is just pointing out flaws in a Christian's internal logic. And he understands exactly why there's advertising, and that has a lot to do with why he hates it.

The two are basically indistinguishable

Yeah, I know, but which judge?

Which one?
