I've been doing a little research and so far I can't find any real support for the idea that unions and ex-acorn workers are behind #occupy.

The main website seems to be http://occupywallst.org/ - and the donation form is operted thru something called Alliance for Global Justice and nicanet - some nicauragan justice group fighting ring wing death squads or something.

I'm looking for other websites but most of the tweets point to http://occupywallst.org/

The twitter hashtag #occupywallstreet seems to be the dominant twitter identifier.

When you search for "who funds occupy wall street" the results are not terribly clear - it may be too early for real journalism on the subject.

It sounds like there were tons of little new york organizations that decided to support an occupation. Pages with lists ---

The right wing propaganda machine is of course quick to pin the blame on Soros. http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews...py-wall-street The article doesn't have any actual evidence, but that isn't the point. They hate that there's a billionaire that spends money on causes that THEIR billionaires have spent money telling them to hate.

Theres a worldnetdaily blogger who may be the source for the union stuff - makes sense to me that the unions should protest wall street - worldnetdaily is a pit of crap, and this is the first I've heard of a sept 17th days of rage project, but it's possible that some of this isn't agitprop - http://kleinonline.wnd.com/2011/09/1...-legal-system/

I hope revolution does hit the streets. The only thing really interesting about the tea party was that they were talking revolution before murdoch and the kochs chopped off their dicks and replaced them with pussies. So if the hippies and the girls and the students and the retirees occupying can bring some sense of revolution the tea party abandoned, that might be cool.

A little revolution might actually redeem america.
