Marsha V -
The Nazi Party, the Communist Party, David DuKKKe, Noam "Genocide is
Understandable" Chomsky, and Bill "Didn’t Make Enough Bombs" Ayers have all
endorsed the Occupants.
That's fine company!
Why, it's almost up to the non-existent racial epithets hurled at Dem
lawmakers as they signed Obalosireidcare into existence. (A portion of which
was just rejected since it was unfundable.)
[ Horse: I thought we weren't supposed to be talking about this matter, but
if MV gets a pass, then I should be able to reply. ]
Here's a slapdash relevance: would Lila be an Occupant? What would Phaedrus
think of 'em?

Subject: [MD] The Class War Has Begun
These efforts to domesticate and contain the protests are unlikely to
succeed. It is not frustration that’s roiling America but anger, the anger
of a full-fledged class war. Try as polite company keeps trying to ignore
it, that war has been building in this country and abroad for much of this
decade and has been waged in earnest in America since the fall of 2008. But
the crisp agenda demanded of Occupy Wall Street will not be forthcoming. The
inchoateness of our particular class war is central to its meaning. America
is notTahrir Square or the riot-scarred precincts of North London, where
everyone knows at birth who is in which class and why. We pride ourselves on
being a “classless” democracy. We abhor ideology. When Americans left and
right, young and old, express anger at an overclass, they don’t necessarily
agree about who’s on which side of that class divide. The often confusing
fluidity of class definitions, especially in an America as polarized as ours
is now, may make our homegrown class war more volatile, not less.
