This OWS experiment is fascinating. It's like being in a laboratory and watching Animal Farm and Lord of the Flies unfold before our very eyes. Just for those of you keeping score at home, here are some of the very latest dispatches from the OWS frontier. Remember, this is what leftism looks like.
From the Depravity File:
The depravity file forgot the 19 year old rape victim in Cleveland.
There is no way public sympathy is with these people. Anyone who was decent has already packed up and gone home.
They’re masturbating in public in Madison? Gives a whole new meaning to “Beat the Badgers!”
By some amazing coincidence, that just happens to be your blog. What are the odds?
And I'll bet you would really appreciate the hits, huh?
There's just serendipity falling all over the place.
NYPD and NYFD are confiscating generators and gas containers from the park citing safety concerns.

The American left, much like the (leftist) National Socialism of Germany in the 1930’s, is having their own version of “Kristallnacht”.
There is the underlying theme of anti-Semitism, combined with demands that the “rich” bankers give up their wealth and vacate the country, though where anyone could go in the world that is any kind of haven for the persecution now being pursued in this country, is a conundrum.
The most devastating kind of destruction is self-destruction.
I've seen that behavior in SF already, back in the 90s when I was in graduate school. There was a scientific conference being held at the Mosconi Center, and we borrowed a university van to take everyone in our lab to the conference every day. We parked under an overpass, because the parking was cheaper. Unfortunately, the homeless camped under the same overpass, and the ground was disgusting. We really had to watch our steps.
Dang it!! I just got all the coffee off of my keyboard from my last uncontrolled spew - screw it, where is that plastic drop cloth?
I saw the same behavior in San Francisco in the mid-70s, plus the aggressive panhandlers. That was right in the middle of Chinese New Year’s celebrations.
On Maui, in 2005, a young woman with her naked toddler passed us and warned us to step carefully, as her kid had left “a little turd” on the beach.
The thing here is that a crowd of mostly privileged white kids are all crammed into small spaces and all of them are indulging their inner schizophrenic toddler, so it is totally disgusting and there is no question of who is responsible for the mass of stinky deposits. NYC is not known for the ease of finding public restrooms. Haven’t been there since 1987, but we had to plan our route around museums and such that charged admission, in order to have reasonable access to clean facilities. Any restrooms in restaurants were often not open to the public, even the paying customers. When they were, it was enough to make you want to leave and not eat there.
Yet, when these same liberals come to the country, they complain about a whiff of cow manure on the breeze. In our county, many gravity septic systems were condemned about 10 years ago and outhouses were prohibited, yet both of these methods of waste disposal were sanitary and had worked well forever. In these Occupied cities, the untreated human waste is running off into the storm sewers and then into the nearest body of water. Yet, all of the Occupiers are concerned about the environment? Right.
I experienced communes back in the 70s. Most failed. Most were supported by one or two trustfunders or people with academic salaries. Most of the residents had “better things to do than work” (sic). All the housekeeping was done by one or two people who just couldn’t stand to live in filth. They were derided as *anal*. It is the Tragedy of the Commons, once again.
And based on the pictures, those are not cheap generators. I wonder who’s paying for them. Wouldn’t you love to see the money trail behind this whole thing? Wouldn’t it be great to have a conscientious press who would investigate and report on this???
