Oh yes, the occupy movement is by definition, anti-capitalist. Every issue we address, from wealth disparity, never ending wars for resources, massive environmental degradation, corporate person hood, foreclosures, unemployment, massive student loan debt, privatization, racism, sexism, and this generation's stolen future make it so. Wall St, the big banks, and corporate dominance is the system of the 1% [capitalism] run amok. It puts profits before the needs of humanity (the 99%). .
EXCELLENT. I wish I didn't have to be an armchair activist but I don't live near any Occupy movements although I fully support it and am as active as I can be via Social Media. Keep up the great work. Keep the movement strong. We must NEVER give up or give in against our oppressors. We must always stand up for our rights as citizens and never bow to tyrants.
Thanks for doing this. Please keep recording history as this develops and the movement becomes stronger, eventually to create change. We so support this movement.
Nice to see some of the Canadian gatherings and hearing that while their banking structure may differe, they have many of the same issues we are also worried about.
Glad to say that I was apart of this moment. Oh sorry, that I am STILL apart of this moment and we aren't going nowhere. God is on the side of the people. Look how mild this winter has been. We will hit the streets even harder once the spring comes back around.
That girl in the video had it right. Occupy is not about complaining. It's about gathering together and think how we can change things since it wont change itself. Doing nothing rewards nothing or worst in return.
Is Occupy a protest of "wage disparity and corporate greed" or a protest of government corruption, the "conflict of interest" that exists between politicians and big business? This video seems anti-capitalist, but there's a video with Peter Schiff talking with one protestor who claims that the MAJORITY of Occupy protestors are capitalists.
really nice to see this multi city sequence and also my friend nigel in pittsburgh too!

hello,
we, The Chimagels are supporters of the occupy we are the 99 percent movement.
So we composed, produced, played a song about it.
You can hear and download the song as often you like on youtube
We guess, it would be helpful to sing this song during demonstrations worldwide.
We guess, a common hymn or Anthem would be helpful for our targets
please click on the URL wearethe99percent1 below

@OccupyTravels I guess my question is- isn't greed and disparity vital to healthy capitalism?

@rtimothyweeks sure.. but its also disastrous to our economy and puts our entire species in danger.
