I highly doubt occupy wall street was the big deal for the elite.
Ironically enough you're kind of adding to the supposed distraction, since occupy wall street didn't accomplish much of anything.
Unions forming have caused more of the elite to quiver in their boots than protests.

- 0dayz 4y agoNo, because it was never neutered, it fizzled out because it was a protest not a lobbying group that could do legislative change.
- Teever 4y agoYou know, I've expressed the same idea over the years in different forums and I always get someone who responds like the person above did and it has always baffled me. Then COVID happened and people who reticently got the vaccine and then had mild covid said "COVID was no big deal, I hardly felt anything" while conveniently ignoring the fact that the vaccine did something. What is the name of this cognitive bias or fallacy? It's everywhere.
