Please refrain from copy and pasting messages over and over and over, or you will be removed from the forum. We all have input to make so let's keep this at a discussion and not a text block of commercials. Here are some helpful guidelines for good discussion and debate recommended by one of our members:

  • * Stay on topic
  • * Be clear
  • * Build upon your points and address those of other people
  • * Refrain from making assumptions about others' unstated views
  • * If you disagree with somebody, do so politely
  • * Clarify your terms and seek to understand others' (but avoid semantic derails)
Note: The opinions expressed by the moderators and members of this discussion board do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Occupy Together or Occupy Wall St. In the spirit of free information, open discussion, and the freedom of expression, members are able to speak about issues relating and directly pertaining to the Occupy movement. You will be banned for hate speech or intentional misinformation and please refrain from any violent rhetoric; this is a peaceful movement. Thank you.

    I saw your name in the acknowledgements section of a book I read recently... I want to say it was David Graeber's Direct Action: An Ethnography. Are you one in the same?

      I doubt it. I invited him to the Global Teach In, but he couldn't commit. Maybe it was Jon Rynn's book: Manufacturing Green Prosperity?

    I have posted something. I still don't know if anyone reads this stuff or it has any impact whatsoever. The OWS culture that I have observed seems very polite, which is a vast improvement over sectarianism, but there is this kind of swarmy quality to the whole thing. I don't usually use that word and had to check it's meaning:
    smarm·y/ˈsmärmē/Adjective: Ingratiating and wheedling in a way that is perceived as insincere or excessive; unctuous.

    I think the local work groups don't have this quality. But look, how can you have a general strike in Oakland and not demand community control of the police? I find that weird. Very weird. And how come I can't get a piece published making this point in the left? There is a whole lock out of ideas. I am working with some people to take up the sixfold agenda. So, if you are interested, send me an email. Thanks.
