This is not between left vs right, conservative vs liberal. This time it’s political along the class line that separates Billionaire from the underclass, the rabble – the people who were never supposed to win may suddenly have at least a few billionaires on the run.
Finally, the poor have learned how to eat the rich which is a far cry from what we saw 10 years ago.
In September of 2011, the Occupy Wall Street movement emerged at Zuccotti Park in New York City’s financial district against the deepening global economic inequality following the Great Recession and the protests quickly spread to other cities and continents. In just a few months, the sit-in was expelled from Lower Manhattan and the anti-capitalist movement itself largely was diverted towards reformism and away from its original radical intentions.
There were some of the occupiers that realized that they had been lured into becoming useful idiots in a plan that was not effective at teaching the Wall Street elitists a lesson.
Later the scam began to unravel and the origins of the Occupy Wall Street movement was part of a huge marketing campaign traced to Adbusters – a media foundation that survived on grants from the Tides Foundation Progressive Policy Center which receives significant endowments from none other than George Soros and the Open Science framework group.

I was actually investigated the Occupy Movement in both Portland, Oregon and in Las Vegas. I also interviewed the leaders of the movement in Portland — these leaders eventually made off with a lot of money which left many idealistic protesters disenchanted.

The atmosphere at the park occupation was at best like that of a city dump, where drug addicts and vagrants found a place to just hang out. Sometimes violence would break out between occupiers and police.
It was a mess — it was obvious that whatever goals they had they were not met.
People were shocked that the movement had any success at all and wondered how so many people could band together for a protest of this magnitude.
It was simple really — Facebook was responsible.
Occupy groups recruited over 170,000 active Facebook users and more than 1.4 million “likes” in support of Occupations. By October 22, 2011 Facebook pages related to the Wall Street Occupation had accumulated more than 390,000 “likes”, while almost twice that number, more than 770,000, have been expressed for the 324 local sites. Most new Occupation pages were started between September 23rd and October 5th. On October 11th, occupy activity on Facebook peaked with 73,812 posts and comments to an occupy page in a day. By October 22nd, there had been 1,170,626 total posts or comments associated with Occupation pages.
