Editor note: Andrew is 100% correct on this. Already we are seeing co-option of the Occupy Wall Street organization. Please pass this video around. Like Andrew, I’ve also heard many of these people speaking out of two sides of their mouths, supporting Obama (who has been bankrolled by the “too big to fail” central banking system at the core of the problem), while denouncing Wall Street. One young woman was talking about how more government should be used to crack down, not understanding that government is on the side of Wall Street and lines their pockets by doing the bidding of central banking and conglomerate corporatism (called fascism by many).
andrewgavinmarshall on Oct 3, 2011 Avoid co-optation, control, centralization and institutionalization. Co-optation will turn revolution into reform. Remain decentralized, grass roots, and radical. The enemy is not simply the banks and corporations, but all the institutions and ideas which seek to define, dominate, control, oppress and destroy humanity.
