Frank Miller gets it...

While I was never into "graphic novels" (a.k.a. COMICS), I loved '300'. But what I love even more is Frank Miller's dead-on analysis of the Occupidiots:
Everybody’s been too damn polite about this nonsense:
And it's about time that the floodgates opened.
The “Occupy” movement, whether displaying itself on Wall Street or in the streets of Oakland (which has, with unspeakable cowardice, embraced it) is anything but an exercise of our blessed First Amendment. “Occupy” is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America.
But that's the point! They WANT to harm America, Frank. They despise, loathe, detest our way of life here in America. Perhaps born here but not of the stock of their ancestors. They're a bunch of entitled brats who think they can up-end this country and create a utopian anarchist society all their own. And they're foolish enough to believe that 1) they can accomplish it and 2) that it will actually continue to succeed under their vision. Clowns, indeed!
“Occupy” is nothing short of a clumsy, poorly-expressed attempt at anarchy, to the extent that the “movement” – HAH! Some “movement”, except if the word “bowel” is attached - is anything more than an ugly fashion statement by a bunch of iPhone, iPad wielding spoiled brats who should stop getting in the way of working people and find jobs for themselves.
There's the catch. They want to undo capitalism and a decent society but they're dependent on all the things that glorious capitalism has made possible. Perhaps it's true that my generation has contributed to the ruination of their generation. But that's no excuse for continuing to be a bunch of worthless douchenuggets!
This is no popular uprising. This is garbage. And goodness knows they’re spewing their garbage – both politically and physically – every which way they can find. Wake up, pond scum. America is at war against a ruthless enemy.
To quote the infamous Pogo, "We have met the enemy and he is us."

  1. There's no analysis there. It's just Frank spewing venom at a straw man. An analysis would require some actual research and some factual information rather than throwing mud at some token sterotypes. However that's what Miller does. He has a comic-book view of the world. He's Batman and everyone who disagrees with his point of view else is deviant scum.

    America was born out of protest against injustice. People have a right to be heard, to work, to have a home and these things have been smothered by the greedy short-sightedness of an economic and political system that caters to the wealthy elite.

  2. "I reserve the right to delete your posts... or just edit them to make you look like an even bigger fool that you naturally appear. This is *my* house and you're not entitled to crap." Ah yes the tyrant's policy. Oh well you just undermined any opinion you might have to contribute to a real discussion.
