Afterwards.

After discussing the OWS movement and Taibbi's article in class, my thoughts haven't really changed. I still don't see the point in OWS, or any other Occupy movement. I haven't seen any change come from the protest thus far, and it's been going on for a while. There's just been a whole lot of noise, and nothing else. After talking to everyone else in class, we all seem to have the same opinion on the whole situation--it's useless. The protesters need to find another way to get their point across, as they are trying to change too much as one time. We all mostly agreed that even though Taibbi said that the protest is fine for the time being, we disagree. They need to reorganize their movement relatively soon. Simply put, it's not working. When hardly anyone knows the full extent of your cause, there is a problem, and it's time to reevaluate what you're doing. Also, the whole point of your protest shouldn't simply be "fuck this shit". That's just protesting for protest's sake, and that just doesn't work.
