No "Occupy" Demos in Moscow

[Gotno Gizmo]

Russian activists found a place to occupy in Moscow, but got no further than a police station where they had to spend several hours on Monday night. There demonstration was stopped because it was unauthorised. I am sure they didn't apply for the official authority knowing of course that it would have been refused.

The biggest political party in the US is the TEA party. Of course the media completely ignores them, except when the media screams "racists" and "criminals" at them.

The "Occupy" jerks are a tiny minority of misfits and communists and psychos, blown up into heros by the media. We people who dwell in reality and honesty call them the FLEA Party. (They don't like soap).

Fairbro,
If you have followed many of my previous posts you will know I am not in agreement with your comments about the "Occupy" protesters. Some of these guys may not articulate their cause well, and indeed may not always sing from the same hymn sheet, but I believe their cause is a noble one. As for their personal hygiene, I imagine living in a tent without a bathroom does create problems.

Unfortunately guys like yourself will not appreciate how global capialism is impacting upon the developed consumerism society, until the economies of many countries are bankrupted by it, causing an upheaval of society, and the earth's environment despoiled for centuries if not forever. Unless you never watch or listen to newsreels you must see these indicators moving closer.

I often watch "Russia Today" on satellite television and it amuses me how they have emphasised the agression and violence of the USA police departments in breaking up the "Occupy" demos. This is laughable when you consider your average Russian's ability to hold a demonstration for anything other than to support Vladimir Putin's party.

I don't know who you are, but you seem to be wrong about everything.

Occupy flea-bags have a "noble cause"? Are you for real? What IS their "Noble Cause"? And what is YOUR SOLUTION to these "capitalism" problems you are complaining about? Hmmh?

Like I said before, Occupy is a small bunch of communists, neurotics, drug users, anarchists, criminals and social misfits. The TEA party is peaceful and wants freedom and liberty, lower taxes, unlike the Occupy group, which wants total government control over every aspect of a person's life, from birth to death.

I guess the best I could say is you're a dupe, or a "useful idiot."

If you still watch televsision and believe the crap that is force fed by the media, you are not too cognizant of reality.

Not even being in the US and able to (or refusing to) access alternative media, such as Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, etc. you have no idea what you are talking about.

"EuroNews" is a joke. So is CNN, so is RT I don't watch this childish babble "Hooray for our great leaders - Yanakovich, Obama, etc." It nauseates me.

I suggest you read "State of Fear" by Michael Crichton to get started.

Any more comments, I'll be glad to reply. Like shooting fish in a barrel.

I don't usually read this stuff, no time, it's a waste of time, and foreigners here always seem to be far left-wingers.

what nationality are you Fairbro??

Fairbro,
Your counter crticism assumes a very American perspective. The "Occupy" protests are a global phenomenon being enacted through many towns and cities throughout the world and not just a USA protest.

I agree with you that the mass media is biased, as for the most part it is owned or controlled by the billionaire corporations that you seem to be sypathetic to. However, the newsreels showing the demise of many European countries financial positions and the austerity requirements of the IMF impacting upon those people who did nothing to cause this problem is for real.

I hope you enjoy your time in Ukraine and that it widens your life experience beyond that likely narrow one that you have had so far.

And it wouldn't hurt any for you to broaden yours as well GG.

Socialism works as long as someone else has the money to finance it. After that it's chaos.

Many of the OWS protesters ahve been found out to be the product of their own making. They have highly advanced degrees in basket weaving and other social sciences. Nothing that an employer would want in the workforce.
Who's fault is that?

Society?

Or a poor personal decision?
