Actuallly, the most difficult, yet the most essential directive is the one about “Occupy Your Own Head.”

Americans haven’t been doing that for years.  They have gone where they have been led—into wars upon wars, exploitation after exploitation, destruction hee, destruction there—all at the behest of propaganda paid for by government and business and issued out of the mouths of major media.

Occupy Your Own Head means:  Ask questions, study, research, listen to alternatives, respect differences, be fair, beware of laziness, think outside the box, follow the money, don’t be afraid, don’t fly off the handle—all that and more. It’s brand new territory to most Americans who have been self-satisfied and impulsive for far too long.

Agreed.

Winter will soon be here, and these temperatures are looking grim.

We need all the help and publicity we can get.

Most of all, encouragement, from our mentors here on truthdig.

Thank you gentlemen.

First hint.  When all the comments appear telling you
that this can’t work .... go out and make it work. 
Don’t listen to those who tell you constantly that
any attempt for change can not succeed.

This is all across the country.  Another thing
TruthDig doesn’t seem to want you to know. 
#occupytogether Find a city near you.  You are much
better off joining an occupation than you are reading
silly, ineffective liberals on the internet.

Amazing how TD and the Nation manage to repeat all
the smears against the protest by the bankers
friends.  Then again, both told you to go vote for
Wall Street’s Obama last time.  You figure it out.

If it branches out into the rural, working class zones, this could spark a real prairie fire. Let’s hope it retains its edge and doesn’t turn into some “Vote For Ron Paul” loon fest.

“I might add that, for many Americans, such nonviolent
direct action is the only chance of having a political
voice, and it deserves to be taken seriously by those of
us in the press.”

Damn straight!
