The people that have been involved with Occupy are very well informed, much more than those that have not been involved.
Many came to be a part of Occupy over one issue but once they were there they learned about the other issues.
Also the Occupy movement and tatics have really carried over to enviormental issues such as Fracking and the Tar Sands issue.
"Thirteen Keystone XL opponents were arrested Monday during a protest in downtown Houston after they refused to move from the front of pipeline owner TransCanada’s offices."
Well that's exactly what I mean. What in the hell does Wall Street have to do with the Keystone XL pipeline? How is blocking a pipeline going to change the financial regulatory system?
People don't know dick about finance, so they just start wandering aimlessly, babbling about an incoherent variety of issues. That's been the fate of the Tea Party and Occupy: mired in ignorance.
Occupy Wall Street obviously can't keep their eye on the ball.
Occupy was a pure media, socialist propaganda event designed to further obama's class warfare strategy.
Many oblivious libs joined in as they are drawn to 'protests' that they treat as nostalgic reminders of their youth. One lady coming out of a play wanted so badly to join in the protest but she would miss her train.
The media pretended Occupy represnted 99% of the 'people'. Big FAIL.
A reaction to the ground roots T-party, except Occupy actually committed the criminal acts with which they tried to later brand the t-party. That ploy alone is proof Occupy is pure propaganda managed by the media.

Do you think no one ever objected to things prior to the Occupy movement? How the hell can they take credit for every protest taking place in the nation? Link to me the keystone opponents to the Occupy movement so I can laugh at them once again for their complete ignorance that we need jobs, and oil, to run the country.

Some people are very poorly informed.
First off the main stream media was against the Occupy Movement, they mostly portrayed the movement in a negative light, even today 99% of our protest/vigils are only covered by the foreign press.
Also much effort was made to prevent the Occupy Movement from being compromised by Obama and the Democrats, this was a lesson learned from what happened a few years ago when the Democrates co-oped the anti war movement.
As far as your " socialist propaganda" there is nothing false or exaggerated about it, and socialism would be refreshing after seeing how capitalism has been destroying our country. We are fast becoming a Banana Republic.
Occupy isn't as clueless as those that claim it is.
I wouldn't be so sure.
