Due to not being aware of any working groups that have a need for consensus for any actions, the GA usually scheduled for Wednesdays at 6:00 on the boardwalk, has been cancelled for this week, 9/12/12.
If you have an action idea, want to form a working group, or other ideas contact us at OccupyOregonSouthcoast@gmail.com.
Thank you SuzyQ, well said.
Yeah, I heard your ‘progressive’ show Mark. Where is your own blog to rant your so called progressive ideas? I have talked to some of the Dems in Coos Bay and they are just hiding behind their own ignorance of the changes happening across the world.
Maybe those few souls who are trying to keep up with the tantamount of fact checking that needs to happen are to busy to cater to the local democratic party that can’t seem to have a serious discussion about change.
Mark had the chance to really discuss the ARRRG charter but no, just used his air time to listen to himself talk. Geesh, You people, should take the debate to the GA and see what happens. Oh my, a real discussion? Do folks know how to do that? Well, that is the opportunity the Coos Dems seems to have missed since they won’t show up to check out something new, something their website even boasts:
“An Occupier at Zuccotty Park was asked for the purpose of OWS. He answered, “We are the purpose.” Many expect to hear demands or objectives but “We are the purpose” points to vision, the same vision held in “We the people.”
It is the policy of the Democratic Party of Coos County to respect and honor that declaration of purpose. Occupy is its own movement and not a resource for the Democratic Party. We, in gratitude, formally recognize Occupy as our wakeup call.”
Well, wake-up and take advantage of it but if you don’t show up then you won’t know the difference that YOU could make.
This blog is only a tiny piece of the occupy pie, you have got to be that change and Mark, you’re not doing it, you could be discussing how to build alliances and bring in new industries for the 99% but instead you are for the big industry coming in and making serfs out of the rest of us!
I am awake. I’m asking: What do I do on Monday morning?
What are the “new industries for the 99%” we can bring in?
It isn’t their job to show you anything mark, you either get it or you don’t. You don’t. But to mock people who are trying to change the wrong direction this nation is headed, is certainly not a progressive attribute in anyone’s mind but yours. Shame on you.
I won’t speak for the movement, but I will speak for myself.
If Mark were really interested he might even show up at one of these meetups.
Turn those questions on the democratic party, Mark, the one killing women and children with drones
Hello?
Occupy Coos Bay?
I’d like to know what you’d like to change on Monday morning.
Then, I’d like to know how you propose to do it.
I love your energy. I really do. But I’m not impressed with your results. You are perilously close to becoming insignificant, or worse, a punchline.
How about being the punch?
What are you about? Where’s the line you draw? How how you willing to defend it? Don’t tell me I don’t understand — Explain it!
(Hint: Don’t say “consensus” because 99% of the People fall asleep before you get to the third syllable.)
