- me_me_me 7y ago> Where is the revolution? There was Occupy Wallstreet. It's very interesting how government attacked it. Both internally and externally. One lesson to learn from it is that a movement need few clearly defined goals. And needs to remove/distance any people who try to muddle with that (intentionally or not). Otherwise this will divide people on the inside, create infighting leading to disillusioned rudderless environment soon distant to self implode.
