    That was Occupy Wall Street. But they weren’t useful idiots for big business, so “moderates” just laughed at them.

      I think one of the reasons that OWS struggled was a lack of a clear message and a lack of leadership.

      But I think it finally ended with “necessary” outdoor camping laws that most cities put into place to breakup the camps. That and the moderates laughing at them instead of supporting them.

        The message was clear. It’s purely corporate propaganda that it wasn’t.

        The lack of leadership was intentional because left leaders tend to go the way of Fred Hampton.
