The problem with OWS is that in the beginning, it was a rallying cry. The message was defined: corporate greed was bad and the inequality stemming from it.

But as displayed elsewhere (and allegedly here), OWS began to be subverted by itself. It became a catch-all for every single gripe against society at large, no matter how insignificant or stupid the reason. There was societal breakdowns in the group. People left as others questioned others, hurled insults and punches, and in some depraved cases, took advantage of others. You hear the rumors and accusations of people stealing from each other and local businesses, and the sexual assaults and rapes. Sanitation became a major problem. People didn't care and dumped litter as they saw fit. And shit where they saw fit.

I'm reminded of one video clip in particular. OWS protestors fighting over whether a door painted with a vulgar message could stay or not. Did the movement just boil down to a door with a swear word painted onto it? Wow.

I've lost complete respect for the group.
