Ah, thanks, I didn’t catch that. I thought they were just being clever trying to get around some of Kos’ rules.
Well, that’s certainly more hopeful than I first thought. There’s a bit of a pie fight in the comments but it looks like the tide is turning. Progressives are starting to wake up, glad to see it. BTW, it looks like the wheels have come off the OWS bandwagon. Diaries about rapists and child molesters at OWS and bitching about the anti-Obama sentiment. I think it might be game over. The radicals overplayed their hand if progressives aren’t buying it anymore.

I gotta say, you were right and I was wrong about OWS. I got swept up in the momentum of a genuine left-wing political movement focusing on wealth disparity, but when that focus faded and all that remained were 4Chan douchebags and AdBusters, I realized that they were just too radical and, in the case of Anonymous, too malicious for me.
