MODERATORS
The media had their role in it too by setting a 'tone' for the whole thing by treating it like a joke from the start and being sure to always interview the kookiest of people whenever they'd visit one of the encampments. Alternatively, conservative outlets like Fox would paint the protestors like a bunch of entitled freeloaders who just wanted to cause problems.
That clip of the wall street tycoons drinking champagne and laughing at the protesters.
They weren’t Wall Street tycoons. They were just people attending a wedding.
Why does this misinformation keep spreading?
Because, even though that specific photo wasn't about rich people laughing at the protests, you damn well know they all did just that. We just don't have pictures.
I get the symbolism. But calling something that it isn’t is just flat out disingenuous.
And then the Democrat Party co-opted it and destroyed the value but making Occupy a meme factory that says things like trump sucks ass! Biden gives the best handies! LIKE AND SHARE IF YOU AGREE!!!"
