Pleas stop being so obtuse. I know you get a little laugh out of it, but it simply doesn't suit one your age.
the term 'arab spring' was not meant to be taken for a literal 'arab spring' where the protestors were trying to overthrown an evil regime.. the term, as used here in this thread, meant only the massive amount of people finally getting up and protesting the status quo..the status quo being the rape of the economy by the right and the left..and the ripples that rape has caused through-out the country.
this was not hard to figure out, especially since you've been told OWS has nothing to do with overthrowing gov't or anarchy.. unlike the tea-people whining about not touching
their socialism, OWS it
is not a political protest/movement! I know that your righty blogs tell you OWS are anarchist, and since they are lefty and not tea-people you buy into it.. but they are not, and the term 'arab spring' is not meant to be taken as a literal 'Arab Spring!".. it is a reference to the amount of people who are finally tired enough to go out and say something..
sheesh..quit being so goddamn literal.. live in the grey for once, you might like it
So Arab Spring doesn't mean, or have anything to do with... Arab Spring.
You could have said that a lot earlier.
Your idea of living in the gray is unclear language and unclear ideas. It's not about being so literal as it is that an allegory should have some relation to what is being allegorized [new word here!]. As you've just broken down and explained it, Arab Spring has nothing to do with...Arab Spring.
One interesting tidbit of yours, and yet another way that Arab Spring is not Arab Spring, is that "OWS it
is not a political protest/movement!"
Interesting. Although I'm sure some real OWS would probably disagree with your characterization.
