Anyone?

Anyone?

djbrow · Answer

Depends on who you ask. Right wingers saw them leftist tree huggers who were unable to formulate any form of coherent demonstrations or agenda.

Left wingers saw them as the typical anti-government libertarians who inevitably fail within their own hypocrisy.

Either way, they are just another footnote in vast history.

Balph · Answer

They grew up, took a shower, embraced personal responsibility, stopped blaming others for their life, got a job and made something of themselves...  Either that or Winter.

They&#x27;re in a second wave of OWS now..after the first one petered out ..no more tents cities..(probably since they found out that the the FBI was closely monitoring their protest activities.)&#xD;&#xA;They now have a hand full of OWS offshoots.  There&#x27;s Strike Debt,a wide-reaching movement to buy up and forgive the debt of average Americans who are struggling to make their payments.They plan to pay off the loans of ordinary people by working loopholes in the fixed income markets and the tax code.&#xD;&#xA;Occupy Our Homes - staging sit-ins at properties in danger of foreclosure to help distressed homeowners stave off eviction.&#xD;&#xA;Another is Occupy Sandy following Superstorm Sandy,organized to set up in communities to distribute water, food and other aid. &#xD;&#xA;Groups of people went into homes and complexes without water to check on people and ask if they needed help.&#xD;&#xA;Talk about a makeover ..

I thought they were going to shut down the markets and change Washington?I have to agree with posts two and three about what happened..lots of hoopla and little results.

TheGoldenGoose · Answer

There will be another Civil War in this country.  It will be drawn along economic lines.  The greedy corporate f-u-c-k-s will find their gated communities should have had taller walls.

kaponofor3 · Answer

They are still around, they haven&#x27;t gone anywhere.

Jose_Reyes · Answer

Hope it&#x27;s more like a second Revolution, than a Civil War.

dl36 · Answer

your rushing for "bail out" on this thread only confirms the statement with a stamp of approval...

plus you were not a part of the "

Covers Occupy! ©™" movement

The numerous posters of the "

Covers Occupy! ©™" movement know exactly what is was about...

so as usual.... you can try to lie about it not being about the nuisance of the cut/paste alias problem littering the site with links and BS... but....

Covers knows

SarasotaSlim · Answer

The  Covers Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122;" movement was never about cut/paste alias littering the site,,&#xD;&#xA;A Covers member does not have to be apart of the movement to know what it was about and how it started.   It wasn&#x27;t ever about cut/paste alias as you wrongly claim.&#xD;&#xA;You are only spinning only a web of pure poppycock for the uninformed..

Rush51 · Answer

ahhh, yes.  Class warfare is alive and well in this country.    Hook , line, and sinker by the Obama &amp; Media to treat the Sheeple like yourself &#x27;Goose. Pathetic and Weak...

Rush51 · Answer

Wall, to answer your question on this thread... City Police could only put up with these low life's for so long. At the end of the day , they got kicked out of their decrepit tents, and sent back to their parent's home....

[Quote: Originally Posted by SarasotaSlim]  &#xD;&#xA;It was a member-powered movement against Covers and honoring the many banned posters.   [/Quote]give me a break...  plenty of people get banned... the point of the movement was to point out that quality posters get banned while the cut/paste alias problem continues with littering the site with unoriginal content...and the stance of the movement concerning the cut/paste BMA/bob/GBP alias?perhaps we should find threads about it...seems pretty similar to the "Ban kroger petition" that

[Quote: Originally Posted by dl36] &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;perhaps we should find threads about it...&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;[/Quote]&#xD;&#xA;That&#x27;s no problem...&#xD;&#xA;The founder of the Covers Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122;" movement explaining what the protest movement was all about ...........in his own words:&#xD;&#xA;https://spaces.covers.com/blog/hugh613/Entertainment/06242012-Final-Thoughts-From-The-Afterlife.html&#xD;&#xA;Excerpt:&#xD;&#xA;Final Thoughts From The Afterlife&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;"The moment of zen came, however, when AlexPKeaton took me aside for a moment and said to me the following: "APK knows the Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122; movement was never about one individual. APK knows it was about a system that&#x27;s broken, and has been for some time now.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA; A system where a moderator has the audacity to tell a fellow member: "Their site, their rules. This is not a democracy. How is that for a response?"&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA; APK knows you tried, in your own small way, to seek justice for your fallen comrades and to bring about change to a system in desperate need of repair. Hopefully the others know that as well." &#xD;&#xA;(snip)"Just remember: there is no Covers without the members, so fight for what you believe in and reclaim this site".&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;                                                        ~&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;The Covers Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122;" movement was a movement to reclaim the site from the control of Covers moderators and you Darryl were a charter member........... &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;As seen in your post back in June..&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;...."we should honor hugh for his efforts and support him on his Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122; movement... "Nothing we cant handle, take it down and dismantle, light it up like a candle."&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;This will the last off topic comment.. I will make about the Covers Occupy! &#xA9;&#x2122;" movement in this thread ..

dl36 · Answer

funny how you selectively tried to piece things together for a classic sarasotaSpin... nice deflection...  and the stance of the movement concerning the cut/paste BMA/bob/GBP alias?
