Do you fear that the beginning is near?





"Anyone with eyes open knows that the gangsterism of Wall Street ...financial institutions generally ...has caused severe damage to the people of the United States (and the world). And should also know that it has been doing so increasingly for over 30 years, as their power in the economy has radically increased, and with it their political power.

That has set in motion a vicious cycle that has concentrated immense wealth, and with it political power, in a tiny sector of the population, a fraction of 1%, while the rest increasingly become what is sometimes called “a precariat” ... seeking to survive in a precarious existence. They also carry out these ugly activities with almost complete impunity...not only “too big to fail”, but also “too big to jail.”

The courageous and honorable protests underway in Wall Street should serve to bring this calamity to public attention, and to lead to dedicated efforts to overcome it and set the society on a more healthy course."

- Noam Chomsky (speak to the #OccupyWallStreet in Boston).

En sten är i rullning... låt den rulla!

Jag har inte skrivit så mycket om Occupy Wall street rörelsen eller hela Occupy trenden som växt runt hela världen för jag har tyckt att de som medverkar aktivt i den har mer intressant att säga om den än jag. Många utomstående har dock åsikter om den som t.ex republikaner i USA som tycker att dom inte har något konkret budskap eller att dom själva använder sig av märkesvaror från företag som istället borde kritiserats... MEN rörelsen har ju många olika konkreta budskap eftersom den är så bred och inte så homogen som påståtts. Sen efter att folk fått vädra och formulerat sina åsikter så kommer säkerligen rörelsen framställa sina viktigaste krav efter att dom kommit överens om dom eftersom detta är bara början på den. Att folk som lever mitt i kapitalismen också använder deras varor är väl inte så konstigt samtidigt som dom kan kräva en bättre kultur och etik i deras produktionsled och hade bättre alternativa produkter funnits så hade dom säkerligen valts och på många marknader har ju vissa företag nästan monopol.


En del folk som ser sig som mer radikala än Occupy Wall street rörelsen tycker dom har för vaga eller menlösa mål och att dom är för förstående mot marknadsekonomin och globaliseringen och borde även anammat våld som kampmetod...MEN ofta är det ju samma människor som ideligen för fram den här kritiken mot olika slags progressiva krafter och rörelser som fått större genomslagskraft än den dom själva tillhör. Frågan är om det mest är avundsjuka eller att dom vill framstå som riktiga rebeller i jämförelse? Som bekant måste ju en rörelse börja med att någon tar första steget och sen kan den utvecklas åt olika håll när den vuxit sig större. Vem vet vad Occupy rörelsen skapar och sen inspirerar i sin tur... en sten har satts i rullning! Den här rörelsen startades av ett gäng övertygade idealister som nu fått sympatier av så kallat "vanligt folk" som för kampen vidare. Nu när äntligen vanliga människor går ut på gatan och gör sin röst hörd (som vänsterfolk efterlyst i decennier!) då tänker inte jag bildligt talat vara den som ställer mig i vägen för dom och försöker läxa upp någon av dom. Nu har dom tagit deras första steg och förhoppningsvis så fortsätter dom på den vägen! Om Occupy Wall street i New york hade använt våld och skadegörelse som kampmetod så hade dom slagits ner av polisen redan innan deras första vecka tagit slut och dom hade aldrig fått "vanligt folk" att sluta upp i deras led heller.

What does #OccupyWallstreet want?

This document was accepted by the NYC General Assembly on September 29, 2011, with minor updates made on October 1, 2011. It is the first official, collective statement of the protesters in Zuccotti Park:

As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass injustice, we must not lose sight of what brought us together. We write so that all people who feel wronged by the corporate forces of the world can know that we are your allies.

As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power.

We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known.

They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage.

They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses.

They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace based on age, the color of one's skin, sex, gender identity and sexual orientation.

They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system through monopolization.

They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless animals, and actively hide these practices.

They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions.

They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education, which is itself a human right.

They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut workers’ healthcare and pay.

They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the culpability or responsibility.

They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to get them out of contracts in regards to health insurance.

They have sold our privacy as a commodity.

They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the press.

They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit.

They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce.

They have donated large sums of money to politicians, who are responsible for regulating them.

They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil.

They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save people’s lives or provide relief in order to protect investments that have already turned a substantial profit.

They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive ingredients in pursuit of profit.

They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media.

They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with serious doubts about their guilt.

They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad.

They have participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas.

They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government contracts.*

To the people of the world,
We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge you to assert your power.

Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space; create a process to address the problems we face, and generate solutions accessible to everyone.

To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of direct democracy, we offer support, documentation, and all of the resources at our disposal.

Join us and make your voices heard!
