Fucken hippies you are - get a damn job

[grapisavillain]

Sydney is the worst place for this kind of thing to happen. NSW police force are the most brutal kind in Australia. As a Melbournian, I was appalled. Thanks to our new Liberal govt, cops are becoming more adept at using Fascist tactics like the pigs I've seen in these videos. Absolute thugs!

Typo...I didn't say that only *** intellectuals *** can participate in democracy.

[Siegetower]

Pfft. Legal workgroup? Are they sitting at desks reading the Corporations Act or tax legislation to generate amendments that will make the Acts and business fairer? Will they take those amendments to their member of Parliament to table them? THAT is democracy.

No, they're sitting in the park discussing how to smoke dope without the cops seeing. What a joke. Sitting in the park denying its' use to other people and yelling at cops is not democracy.

@Siegetower Might wanna buy a new dictionary there, mate. Authoritarian governments can have legislative bureaus too.

[Siegetower]

@lathouxaris "Might wanna buy a new dictionary there, mate. Authoritarian governments can have legislative bureaus too. " Your comment is very cryptic. I'm laughing at how earnest and serious they want to be, but how naive they are to how the world works. Are you saying that Australia with its' representative parliament is authoritarian? Or that authoritarian govt legal departments will be sitting in the park wondering where to get some gear like these guys.

[lathouxaris]

@Siegetower I was not saying that Australian representative democracy is authoritarian. I was saying that your suggestion that only intellectuals can participate in democracy is rather cynical. Again, I would like for the occupiers to be a little more lucid on their demands and to be more knowledgeable of the economy, but their ignorance should not exempt them from voicing their grievances in the most direct way they know how.

[Siegetower]

@lathouxaris I didn't say that only can participate in democracy. My original point here is that the Occupy "legal taskgroup" or whatever it was called, will not be talking about 'the law' at all. They should go to uni and do commerce or law if they want to be in a position to write the law.

Anyway I've said what I need to say here. I'll just go back to work, making money to enrich my family and continue being such an evil capitalist.

Peace and Greetings from the 53%.

@lathouxaris Very well said... You're awesome... :0)

[lathouxaris]

@Siegetower Although I will say that most of these protesters lack understanding of the pragmatics of the economy, and therefore have no solutions to the problems they face. Their problems are still very real though, as this is why they are there. As for denying the use of the park to other people, I don't really see how they are doing this. From what I can see, people are still able to enjoy the park at leisure.

[Siegetower]

@lathouxaris Of course, there are great problems in society, every society for all time will have problems. There will never be a society or economy without some problems that need to be worked on. Until you get to heaven anyway. We have parliament to work through our problems.

Denying use of the park - I had to walk past their Martin Place shanty town to get to work. It denied use of Martin Place to the general public, stank, was aesthetically ugly and served no purpose at all.

[lathouxaris]

@Siegetower "Until you get to heaven anyway." This tells me all I need to know about you.

[Stitchimonsta]

@Siegetower hahaha wow you seem really angry. Using the park denying others from using them? if you have ever been to hyde park you would know how massive that park is and if you were there then you would have seen everyone there barely took up any space of that park at all. not even a quarter of the parks size with more then enough room for people to enjoy the park who did not want to associate with the protests or get harrassed by police for having a picnic with some political discussion.

[Siegetower]

@Stitchimonsta Just voicing my opinion, no anger here. I would get angry if Occupy Sydney, part of a claimed global movement, started using the tactics of other Occupy groups such as rioting, destroying small businesses (Oakland), covering up rapes (New York) and assaults (Washington) or basically just shitting everywhere (NY).

I live in Sydney and don't want my beautiful city blighted by these destructors. As when they finally go, it is my tax dollars that will pay for the cleanup.

You Tell Em, Mate...

[pipsyrevolts]

Love what this guy is saying - but he and the occupation aren't in Victoria Park (Camperdown) at this point, they're in Hyde Park (the CBD).

Occupy!!@@

[DavinaFaerie]

@pipsyrevolts my mistake. Thanks for correcting me... :0)
