Time Magazine names protesters 'Person of the Year'

[nureallycool]

Trusting a magazine that put Hitler, Stalin, and Ben Bernanke as Persons of the Year?...smart

[Jabarten]

The Time's has called it right......Year of the protestor. Especially in the Arab world. Mohamed Bouazizi should have actually been declared Man of the Year......

[sethnakht12]

power to the people!!

[divinejudge1]

Mohamed Bouazizi should have been mentioned in this new segment

[Loltochapel]

This is great. The elites are shitting themselves. They will no longer be able to use tactics to divide us like racism,homphobia,islamophobia, and anti-semitism. WE THE PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD MUST EDUACATE OURSELVES TOGETHER, UNITE, ORGANIZE, MOBILIZE, AND REVOLUTIONIZE! TIME TO TAKE THE POWER AWAY FROM THE BIG BANKS AND CORPORATIONS AND GIVE IT TO THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xxtruthbetoldx]

The Spring and Summer of 2012 is going to be awesome, I can't wait to see the protests grow. Maybe the Mayans had it right, maybe it will be the end of the world for capitalism and facist societies like America. The future finally looks like it's going to get better

[ImaginarySam]

@xxtruthbetoldx

are you a citizen of America?

[xxtruthbetoldx]

@ImaginarySam In case you haven't noticed protests haven't just been going on in America and I don't need to be a citizen to enjoy the fall of American dictators and dictators in other countries.

[machax002]

the middle east is a shyty place anyway..

[xxtruthbetoldx]

@machax002 did fox news tell you this or have you actually been there? I've been to the middle east many times and it's beautiful!

[dharmaatdawn]

Great choice, Time mag!!! well done. did u have to put a hot woman on cover :) But its about the message , in this case, my hat is off to you.

[Dioxholster]

my dick was person of the year back in 1995. Got plenty of action back then.

[Dioxholster]

steve jobs lol, you people make me laugh.

[implantdnb]

steve jobbs...really?

[akkonburike]

The Time is VERY dangerous. Deeply reactionary. Entrenched in imperialism and "closet conservatism".

It's one thing if a few pigs listen to Rush Limbough -- an other if the "leitmedien" seduce and brainwash the entire "political classes". The New York Times, Time and british Economist should all get a sticker telling: ATTENTION INSANITY INSIDE (similar to the Parental Advisory sticker).

The influence of these "leitmedien" is all pervasive yet in the last decade -- they've got everything wrong.

[Metexie]

Good choice.

[yourtreat2]

Yeah. They elected fascist governments to impose Sharia Law.

The Muslims shall get what they deserve.

[UniversalHourglass]

@yourtreat2 Glad to see Islamophobia is alive and well.

[Abbadon380]

@UniversalHourglass There is no such thing as Islamophobia phobia is an irrational fear the fear of Islam is rational as it is with other religion except buddhism n jainism

[kertaspaper94]

If you are a protester, you're the Person Of The Year too. Hooray for everyone!

[1Mackinzoid]

w00t! I'm the persons of the year!

[DickOPlenty]

time magazine & cfr member stengel finally got it right. now let's occupy time magazine & the mainstream media. hopefully that magazine goes down like much of print media.

[Bring2Swords]

There will be many more uprising in the days to come.

[KEVLANEW80]

YEA.

[ShaktipatSeer2]

LIBERATARIAN SOCIALISM! Google Anarcho-sydnicalism

[TheSage555]

@ShaktipatSeer2 Right on, mate!

[Mathenaut]

Alot of right wing butthurt.

Sorry, being a bunch of religious psychopaths doesn't merit an award.

[GerrettJihad]

We see all the change in the Arab World, but American Government is the next to fall.

[jackram2h2]

You silly Tea Party folk. Get with the time. The Tea Party wasn't chosen because those members didn't destroy property, steal, or rape......

[paul12414]

@jackram2h2 you must only watch the lies on fox news

[jackram2h2]

@paul12414 Fox New is fair and balanced my friend. They're not biased idiots like those on other news channels. You do realize there is physical evidence of everything I mentioned earlier. The press simply refuses to report the facts. Simply a bunch of Liberals who only report one side of the story. Pity how this country lost it's true press back in the 1960's...

[1978atcarroll]

big fuckin' deal, Time magazine's man of the year for 1938 was Adolf Hitler, in 1939 it was Joseph Stalin.

[UniversalHourglass]

@1978atcarroll Yeah, and...?

[1978atcarroll]

@UniversalHourglass And nothing. just pointing out the dumbassery of thinking that "person of the year" means something great.

[4GetThisMan]

@1978atcarroll Being awarded a honorific title by any magazine is gay.

[andrewclunn]

Yet Occupy STILL doesn't have a mission statement of what it's about. The protesters in Northern Africa? Yeah, they deserve recognition, but not a bunch of entitled hipsters who just want some more hand outs to pay off their student loans for their worthless liberal arts degrees.

[MrInsanityPara]

@andrewclunn If you did some research you would realize that Occupy Wall Street stands for many things... and if u weren't so lazy sitting on ur fat ass you would know what they are

[paul12414]

@andrewclunn they want to get money out of politics ,so the top 1%will not run the country.man andrew just kill your self.

[andrewclunn]

@andrewclunn

Calling me a fat ass and telling me to kill myself. The true face of liberalism.

[TheVee909]

the only change you ppl got coming is the coming of the lord, if your waiting for anything else, then just keep dreaming.

[4GetThisMan]

@TheVee909 if your waiting

your

[nubfail]

Occupy wall street protesters being named person of the year? ahahahaahahahahahahahaHHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!­!

[UniversalHourglass]

@nubfail Sure is no Tea Party.

[4GetThisMan]

@nubfail I hope it occurs to you that there's more to the whole protest thing than just OWS...

[TheVee909]

dream on, if Allah hasn't showed up by now for you guys then i think you need to come to realization that your God doesn't exist.

[UniversalHourglass]

@TheVee909 This is about people power. Nobody gives a shit about your beliefs or lack thereof, faggot.

[UniversalHourglass]

I GOT THE POWER!

Da... da... da da da

[4GetThisMan]

Power to the people!

[asianman123abc]

Power to the people!

[Tobriep81]

FIGHT THE SYSTEM!!!!!

[nativemrv19722]

I think that somes  up 2011 fight for your rights " Protesters every where."

[ladylordess]

Hitler and Ben Bernake were also person of the year at Time.

Time magazine has become irrelevant.

[ImmortalGrandPriX]

the world is in upheaval thanks to them. power to the protesters!

[4GetThisMan]

Thank God it wasn't Steve Jobs. Overrated dead faggot.

[UniversalHourglass]

@4GetThisMan Thank God it wasn't Kate Middleton. Overrated worthless cunt.

[Shonenut213]

Goes to show how Time has a socialist bias. Fucking fools.

[4GetThisMan]

@Shonenut213 Explain.

[CaptainRidley]

Wow at all the hate. Who did you feel deserved it? Steve Jobs? Face it, the protester is the "person" of the year 2011. From Arab Spring to Occupy people are getting more connected and more upset as they learn about the world. Agree or Disagree you cannot ignore the fact that people are talking. Power to the People!

[blackacidlizzard]

@CaptainRidley

"power to the people is just a fantasy, and they sell it to us as the American Dream." - -Corporate Avenger

[HelmetBlissta]

@CaptainRidley Yeah sure "power to the people". But we don't need this very poor and biased news source to tell us anything. Don't buy time magazine it is rubbish.

[4GetThisMan]

@HelmetBlissta "poor and biased news source"

You're talking about RT, right?

[HelmetBlissta]

@4GetThisMan Ha ha , er no. Time magazine and Al Jazeera

[geawesomenessed]

@CaptainRidley steve jobs supported sweatshops in asia....

[TheReviewSpace]

i nominate che :p

[blackacidlizzard]

Protesting: only slightly less useful than prayer.

Fucking fools.

[4GetThisMan]

@blackacidlizzard Because toppling authoritarian governments and having an impact on later protest movements is definitely less useful than praying.

Fucking fool.

[blackacidlizzard]

@4GetThisMan

Yeah, the protests didn't do that. They almost never have. But they've sure got credulous asswipes to believe that "we really do have power"

keep dreaming.

[UniversalHourglass]

@blackacidlizzard "Yeah, the protests didn't do that."

Uh, yes they did, you dipshit.

[blackacidlizzard]

@UniversalHourglass

Yeah, when your new US puppet dictators are gunning you down, maybe you'll reconsider that claim.

[UniversalHourglass]

@blackacidlizzard Things sure seem to be going nicely in Tunisia...

[llinsane1ll]

I bet most of these morons around the world don't know exactly what they're protesting about. Especially here in the US.

/facepalm

[4GetThisMan]

@llinsane1ll I bet you don't know exactly what they're protesting about. Especially outside the US.

/facedesk

[llinsane1ll]

@4GetThisMan Mm... I bet I do.

[UniversalHourglass]

@llinsane1ll Mm... let's fuck.

[Balian49]

Occupy Time Magazine!

[fondoftheduh]

And the new defense bill names protesters as low level terrorist. at least someone is standing up for freedom of speech.

[dell1940]

what about the change in america

[Mortello]

Too much protesting going on! Someone needs to protest this!

[greenrage247]

Revolution!

[MoronHunterD]

I vote Gadafi as Time Magazine's man of the Year.

[HelmetBlissta]

Who gives a shit what this particular magazine says. These idiots put that arse Zuckerberg up last year. I wouldn't even wipe my arse with this shit-house publication.

[Hillsillverr]

@HelmetBlissta yep

[TripleSpeak]

@HelmetBlissta LOL. The owners of the media just love any & all distractions, which serve 2 purposes: 1) Keep dumbing down the young w/incessant facebooking, twittering, & texting (good for their profits too) & 2) keep people in a stupor about who the puppet masters are...those who actually run the US gov't, mostly own Wall St., etc. Unfortunately, the OWS protests are just a disorganized mess now...just as planned.

[TripleSpeak]

@UniversalHourglass Nearly everything is OWNED by a small criminal cabal who are murderous, greedy motherfuckers. Look into it if you're too ignorant to know about the world you live in.

[mispistoleros]

@HelmetBlissta, a "shit-house" news org covers a "shit-house" publication...

[4GetThisMan]

@mispistoleros a "shit-house" user posting a "shit-house" comment...

<_<

[UniversalHourglass]

@4GetThisMan This coming from a guy who listens to a "shit-house" band...

[4GetThisMan]

@UniversalHourglass Sure is no Dream Theater...

[TheAtheistworld]

killing time has come!

[TheAtheistworld]

light bringer , come!!!!!!!!!!!
