Krist Novoselic: #OWS Beyond the Occupation

[wwwdotalibaba]

He is correct.

[58kimchi]

I wish there were more people like Krist in this world and less people like the one's who doubt him & leave rude comments on youtube

[greenrabbitification]

Krist is one of the most talented musicians and intelligent minds I've ever known. It's really odd to see any comment that is confused by him or disrespectful towards him. He's a seriously stand up guy and a respectable human being. Nothing but respect for you sir!

[JagenGaiden]

I think Krist should run for president

[MrVaticanAssasin]

There is no way he was in Nirvana..

[godwhyisthistaken]

Awsome, The News anchor was friendly with Krist :) I love hearing Krist talk, he's so smart!

[hellothrful]

RON PAUL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GiantTurtlesEye]

Krist was in a band who changed the the world once. But once isn't enough for him, so now he wants to change the world again!!!! Sounds good to me!

[metal5666666]

I like his message.

But on order to do that stoic people in America have to get rid of the current ballot system.So EVERYBODY is getting attention no only the candidates. 

[ImperatorKuzco]

The Alyona show, which is in reality mainstream media as well, did not pay ány coverage of that. Even the R.T. America news did not! Wake up, The Alyona show and R.T. America watchers! The keepers of the power in the United States control R.T. America, an arrangement, whithout whom Russia Today would not have been allowed to possess a studio in Washington. They do not want, that the American followers get any notice of the fact, that Fox News is showing fake coverage of the Russian protests.

[ImperatorKuzco]

The Alyona show is showing its true colours. Now 'Occupy Wall Street' is coming very closeby to the centre of the most evil state in the world, the United States, it is emphasizing its commitment to the United States instead of Russia by coming up with Hillary Clinton propaganda, coverage, who is completely filled with unimportant disnews about fake American politics, backward cliches with typically American senses and an overlaod of mentionings of 'we, the Americans'.

[roseagain2]

From what I've seen OWS refuses to even talk about supporting candidates/representatives. Only recently are you allowed to even talk about politics on the OWS Livestreams. They would kick you out for even mentioning Ron Paul or the Federal Reserve.

[veniceit1]

How are the "OCCUPU RUSSIAN STREETS" movement going right now? Have they all been arrested or intimidated yet? The 2011 NEW WORLD CHAOS is touching every country worldwide. Despotic office holders have been put on notice. The people have had enough everywhere.

[CrystalsandCandles]

This guy obviously doesn't understand what OWS is about. They aren't trying to make a splash so that they can join the party. The political system is fucked up. Knock on doors? Donate $10 to a Progressive candidate? Look again Krist. You are missing something.

[Hardcoregamer728]

I want to punch this bearded dildo

[bwallace77]

@Hardcoregamer728 You gotta get through me first, shitstain!

[RebelThoughts]

@Hardcoregamer728 He would kick your face in retard. LOL

[cheergirl99999994]

it looks at though the producers didn't tell krist what the interview was going to be about, it looks like he thought it was going to be about electoral reform, which he supports proportional representation. The host was talking about occupy wall street which is nothing to do with electoral reform.

[aaronpolitical]

OK?

[Sull604]

lol, they took the kitchen sink, too funny.

[furtherleft]

The worst thing any US activist can do is participate in any manner in its electoral or governmental processes. That is to play the game on the enemy's turf with its rules, ensuring their victory and activism's defeat. Force them instead to play on your turf by your rules. Not understanding those, they will respond inappropriatly. It is through allowing them to beat themselves through ignorance that victory will come.

[Occupyman]

@furtherleft How does voting for a third party candidate do any harm and in way to activist activities?

[DGENERATE07]

@Occupyman I agree, it's not like this is a music revolution with John Lennon changing the world. If they don't put this into office then they'll probably just burn out. I've gathered from people's comments that lots of those protesting are corporate suckers anyway. Once they gain power, THEN they can change the god damn political bull shit system. It's probably the best shot and wait, hang on, seen as I mentioned music, isn't that Nirvana's bass player and Kurt Cobain's best bud? exactly....

[RapedByRepublicans]

He makes me feel old

[RapedByRepublicans]

This is the same guy who once fried mayonnaise and walk around naked screaming cast of your possessions as I have

[SUPERSTUD6000]

why didn't he shoot himself instead.

it's sad.

[greenrabbitification]

@SUPERSTUD6000 You mean why didn't Courtney do it. And also FUCK YOURSELF! Krist is legend.

[SUPERSTUD6000]

it's like he doesn't understand that the democrat and republican parties have established a tyranny over our electoral system.

they are infact two factions of the same party.

the international banker's party.

they will never allow an outside party on the ballot in all 50 states in a national election.

[unamaxify]

@SUPERSTUD6000

"they will never allow an outside party on the ballot in all 50 states in a national election."

i tend to agree

but that could be a good thing, they'd forced to show their real faces,

and more people might get angry enough to do something about it.

[Di0genesus]

Why do these whiny little pricks who unsub have to announce their unsubbing as if somehow their opinion holds sway over the rest of us?

[ididete]

This woman is IMITATING Aloyna, it's very pathetic. She looks and speaks like Aloyna clone.

STUPID. Distasteful, I am no longer watching this show. I am unsubscribing.

[xadam2dudex]

I guess the right has made the OWS so onerous that this guy doesn't want to be associated with it for fear of a backlash or just because he believes the right wing propaganda about OWS..I get the feeling that he is more right wing than progressive..he seems to be squirming to be considered in any way progressive

[mulabate]

Mr. Novoselic needs to stick with the music business, he sounds totally clueless of how many people are suffering in poverty in USA right now and the urgent need for something to effectively be done NOW not never. If you take Krist's wealth away from him and ability to make more money in the music industry he might get the picture.

We need to legal end the Kleptocratic Republic="Wealthy elitist puppet-masters buying & sell all levels of govt! Legal true direct democracy of/by/for citizens!

[AustralianAllTheWay]

2012 will be the great showdown where the masses will see the hidden hand that's been running society for eons.

[wasy35]

I like his message of voting fairness, but it is a bit naive.

[skate4lifebit]

AUDIO SYNC IS OFF

[knocknockearth]

@skate4lifebit Nah.. it's because the frame rates are real shi..

[ZeroSixtyFive]

Mr. Novoselić, you can't fight an enemy with weapons the enemy gave you.

[TheEmptyHunter]

Electoral politics. Sure, if we have a proportional representation system, because a 2 party system is clearly impeding progress and a PR system will force real compromise

[mesmokumpeacepipe]

It sounds like Novoselic really doesn't like the outside occupations

[dobbsiancant]

we have to get the dems to nominate progressives.and if they don't.run against them as independents.

[aaronarmstrongskomra]

I don't know if Mr. Novoselic wrote any of Nirvana's music, but if he did, I'm sure that those royalties have placed him in the 1%. When I listened to Nirvana, it was because I believed they stood against the type of paternalistic attitude that Mr. Novoselic has demonstrated towards the occupy protesters. Comparing them to Nixon? Really? I hope the ows people respond to Mr. Novoselic's comments the way that they responded to that guy who did the Obama HOPE poster.

[wwe107]

There is enough gun control already.

[TRKTKO]

dude it's Krist

[pantelin2]

where is Alyona!?

[aaronpolitical]

@pantelin2 She's "occupied"...I'll get her back to you soon ;D
