Never before in human history have we seen the people of the world rise up simultaneously on the same cause, all of the same mind, the system sinks, it is corrupt from top to bottom, it works against the interests of the majority of the people. Never in human history have people all across the globe wanted to change a world system and stood up to do something about it simultaneously. The mould has been broken, people across the world have seen through the smoke and mirrors of corrupt illusion and they will change it. Change breeds change, once people's minds open to new ideas the world becomes a new and exciting place with the possibility of realising dreams. Our dreams, not their nightmares.
From The Commune:
In my opinion, it is very likely
that the historians of the future will look upon yesterday
as the day a truly global anti-capitalist movement was born.
Following the example of Occupy
Wall Street, Los Angeles,
Boston, and hundreds
of US towns and cities, a huge number of small and large
occupations began on every continent except Antarctica
(see Africa, Asia,
Australia,
Europe,
North America,
South America).
All proclaim their opposition to the
capitalist status quo – with its obscene riches at one pole and
sickening poverty at the other. All of this has been organised
online, completely outside the clutches of the decaying trade union
bureaucracies, for whom ‘international solidarity’ is just some
words they used to say a few decades back. The old organisations of
timid protest seek influence on the margins, but they are ignored and
seen to be as irrelevant as they actually are. It is highly
appropriate that this moment has been crowned by the apparently
successful resisting of the attempt by New York’s mayor and second
richest man to retake Liberty Park. There is a sense that the
powers that be are losing control by the hour, if not the second if
you follow it all on Twitter
