Simply caring is not enough. Action is needed.
We need a worldwide general strike to bring this poisonous system to its knees and then set about fixing it. Because the people that are killing this planet don't give a shit, and they are not going to fix it for us. And the corporate buttsuckers who keep saying "oh, we can change it just by voting" are fracking deluded beyond redemption, just bricks in the wall.
If we want something done, we are going to have to do it ourselves, and that takes courage and will, two virtues that seem to be sadly lacking among the general American populace these days. We had a chance, if enough people would have gotten off the couch, before the cops beat Occupy down.
Who will stand with us on our next go round?
