Re: [UC] Beautiful people rallied today

[Glenn moyer]

Rick, You are dealing with the real purpose of deregulation.  Today, all corporations can do whatever they want to do to us, in the interest of their money and power.  Customer service is a cruel joke, and they never need to justify anything anywhere, now that the courts are owned too.  Most of our neighbors have similar frustrating experiences with all corporations, but are mostly too embarrassed to share.  The massive manipulation and propaganda system that the rulers control insists that people must always blame themselves, when corporate cruelty and deafness beats upon them.  The hypermasculinity of neoliberalism tells us to "man-up" and accept abuse. With regard to media, we need to remember their modern purpose.  Edward R Murrow is long dead.  Pseudo-journalism is designed to manipulate and infantilize us.  It's designed to keep us away from the news and stories we need to hear, while substituting worthless and mind-numbing garbage to make us controlled yet violent.  At the stop Monsanto rally, I was thrilled to hear some vital intellectual connections, which the beautiful people among us are beginning to make. Can we talk of divestment from one evil corporation, when the upper middle class is "diversified" in the stock market?  When pensions are tied to the interconnections between evil corporations...?  Should we pull the money from Monsanto, so that it can go to private prisons, health insurance, and drone manufacture? I know I have often felt extremely isolated, just like many of our beautiful neighbors.  But when we gather together in formerly public spaces, it's unbelievably inspiring to connect with other beautiful souls, who are also able to see oppression and neoliberal capitalism as the criminality it is!  It's time to OCCUPY EVERYTHING!

Comcast could also send one (preferably conduit) or both (conduit & cable) through the revealed opening - presuming that such is advisable and that it is done during the same remediations - ALSO increasing neighbors’ advantages.  BUT, though I try SO much to get a response from both of the CORPORATIONS - mostly I am ‘sluiced' (by their computer's programming… (et. al.); and just continue to continue to reach their SALES / BILLING area persons (who I often feel sorry for bothering) - and MEANWHILE, their CORPORATE co-responsibility and cooperation (offices?) r/t improving of community services still largely seems ‘unreachable'.

Of course, corporate media was no where in sight, so I need to report to you.  We were white, black, gay, straight, children, elderly, students, etc. We had communion and we were community. When citizens rise up together, it certainly reminds me of my own humanity and what is important in life. I wish that everyone isolated, traumatized, caged, and gentrified could join with the beautiful people I saw today.  The beautiful people gathering to stop the poisoning of mother earth also understand the importance of justice and democracy.  Every neighborhood, whether gentrified or not, must struggle to form community once again. In New England, they have town hall meetings. At occupy gatherings, there is a general assembly. Our neighborhood and the nation can continue to live under the rule of corporate power and the civic associations which serve it, or we can form community and save mother earth. It may sound simple and un-upscale, but all neighborhoods need to form general assemblies, if we want to relearn the meaning of community and save planet earth.
