1st: My condolences
2nd: I don't believe in guilt, manipulation, but ONCE IN A WHILE ONE HAS TO READ.
True story, you could verify this by asking most likely anyone who lived in San Francisco at the time...
In 1983 I lived in San Francisco. There was this crazy guy, about 40, who would walk between the lines of cars on Market Street, depending on the flow, would stand in front of a car and shout "Only I am God, no one else can be God because only I am God!" The scenes he caused... In my mind, from a bus seat, I can still see that vision, as I'm sure anyone who lived in San Francisco at the time...
I was only involved with OLA from Nov. & OWS eviction to a month or so after OLA's eviction.
I had and still have hope, but...
I haven't been to a GA in a while, the construct of having Juan and the we are the 50% and we are going to ram it down your throat because we are worse because we know better than what we are trying to change, to someone who doesn't give a fuck, because it's the quality of ones mind that is reality, makes me want to puke AND doesn't bring about change because WHY BOTHER?
Why OLA is not making & selling "We are the 99% OLA t-shirts"?
Instead of walking down the street & seeing someone with a cool t-shirt & saying Hi!, we have our OLA leadership = "Only I am God, no one else can be God because only I am God!" and only I can spread the message. Yes, we will remember your asses!
Yes, this is depressing, but from a gay person who in the 90s, every week lost a liberal friend, you pick yourself up, move forward. You learn that surviving is the key. Outliving the enemy is the key. I know I'll someday go to an uninterrupted, smooth GA & buy a t-shirt for a friend.
LOVE & PEACE, Dear Sweet Alex

I don't know how car & ram got underlined in my post. I didn't underline it originally.
A point of clarification: "because we are worse, than they are because we know better than that, because of what we are trying to change, to someone who doesn't give a fuck, because it's the quality of ones mind that is reality, makes me want to puke AND doesn't bring about change because WHY BOTHER?"
Thought I'd come to the GA tonight. I can't. I'm too blown away. Maybe in a few weeks, Who knows? Watching the stifle. Oh yea interesting.
I'm too blown away that the infiltrators & egotists keep stifling getting the simple "We are the 99%' simple message out.
And they'll work the guilt and no one will finally make some t-shirts.
It's not about the money, which would be very helpful. It's about getting the message out.
