But is there such a thing as an "in cast?" vs. "outcast?"

I think most of us would be outcasts if we were one or the other.

i love along with Killer Joe who is getting cast out as he is a vocal Sanders supporter. To me they are in cast's, I guess it depends what the meaning of is, is. Or in this case what being Kast out vs in is.

…as far as labels go. We're here to build a better foundation for a productive and nurturing online community. At least, that's my focus. I'm sure every Occupier has their own vision of what they want to achieve.

Sit back and enjoy yourself. Join in wherever you wish.

Do I hear the sound of guillotines being constructed?

first time in a year. The diary, of course, was to give a link to c99p.

Too bad you're far away. We'd love to have you over for dinner!

Some of the comments were unbelievable. Half of us are for Trump? It seems as though many think we just left this month. Hello? We have been around for over one year. I also noticed that at least one negative commenter has joined here. Maybe they will learn something about how to have adult conversations about real ideas for a better world without HR's or flags.

Indeed.

Fellow Occupier here. And I'd add to that, that most of us here probably see the late George Carlin as less a comedian than a badass Sage.

The sentiments of this blog brought me straight to the intro of his last book. He said this:

I'm an outsider by choice, but not truly. It's the unpleasantness of the system that keeps me out.
I'd rather be in, in a good system. That's where my discontent comes from: being forced to choose to stay outside.
My advice: Just keep movin' straight ahead. Every now and then you find yourself in a different place.
