#occupy

This is amazing - and beautiful. The spirit of solidarity is rising to occupy, or rather, reclaim, every aspect of existence that has for so long been occupied by the corporate state. This is not simply about a street. This is about overthrowing the reign of that which has "put a dollar sign on every fucking thing on this planet."

The movement sweeping the globe is not so much seeking to 'occupy' as it is to overthrow an already existing occupation; it is not seeking to occupy, but to live. It is the primal and spontaneous expression of feral nostalgia. It is the memory of freedom. And it will no longer be suppressed.

goals

To awaken from the dream or, barring that, to dream more lucidly.
