Comments on: Anti-Coal Zombie March https://occupyportland.org/2011/10/31/1516/ New website changes underway!

What do the all have in common? They are all in the top 20 Obama donors list, having donated $3,603,567 in 2008.

Interestingly, also on the top 20 Obama donor list are three universities and one university system, having donated $3,670,417 to Obama’s 2008 election. And you wonder why education continues to become ever more expensive. See the following link for the list:

Isn’t it time to protest Barack Obama?

Is break up with your bank day today, or Nov. 1 or Nov. 5. There seem to be a lot of redundant activities scheduled, kind of diffuses the efforts and impact.

“Fighting back against the corrosive power of major banks over the democratic process.”

“Fighting back against the corrosive power of multinational corporations over the democratic process.”

“Fighting back against the role of Wall Street in creating economic collapse.”

All efforts, actions, meetings, daily activities must be clearly aligned with the mission stated above. Every action must spring forth directly from this hub…and the gravity of this mission requires rigorous evaluation of every effort.

Forget about Quaker welcome meetings,Waldorf school tours, cuddle parties,field trips, Capoeira classes, kids bedtime stories and all the arts and crafts, ear piercings, policing of drunks and drug addicts.(you are really pushing the free speech envelope with all this fluff…) They are not aligned with the mission and are a distraction which will bring you to your knees…very shortly.

Get focused!

If only I had heard about this…you know…sooner.

Are you?
“You don’t know who is important, until you have actually lost them”
Whom have you lost?
“Always aim at complete harmony of thought, word and deed.”
Where is the discord, internally and externally?
“Actions express priorites”
How are your actions PERCEIVED?
“Capital as such is not evil, it is it’s WRONG USE that is evil.”
Are you focusing on the wrong use?
” Be the change you wish to see in the world”
Are you…how about your words, deeds and thoughts?

Why would anyone take this seriously?

If there is an issue, a cause, a purpose, why distract from it with this oddness?
Who is your target? Who are you trying to reach to change the situation?
Will they be impressed by a bunch of people in make-up? Will they consider changing their business plan because of this action?

Seriously.
