I think that the protests in Wisconsin were dealing with a serious issue, and one which the protesters had a clear and actionable plan of protesting against (voting Scott Walker and all those who support his union busting bill out) honestly.

This. Protesting against “The Man,” like these Wall Street protesters are doing, is little more than lame-ass slacktivism that will accomplish nothing other than making progressives look like fools. The Wisconsin protesters were real, working-class people being scapegoated and shit on by an ambitious new douchebag of a governor. Their anger and desperation was real.
