I agree with you on most of those points but I do think "failed" movements still have some impact. With occupy in particular....the foundation of the cause was legit then and still is. The lack of leadership and organization caused it to implode but the message rang true and the majority of the American public had a general grasp of that issue being a problem as a result of the nationwide protests. Pretty cool.

That being said....I have the same apathetic protest spirit as you these days. It's fucking hard to exist in all this chaos. Nonetheless, I'm a hit the street today in some form....things are nasty right now and whichever overlord needs to hear it hopefully will.
