i took a few months out of my life to infiltrate an occupy camp in california. i slept in their camp. i watched an listened. I saw them transform into what is now antifa. they really dont know what they want, but they do know what they dont want and that is just about everything from a to z.

it was focused on economics and wall st at first but the rich got nervous so infiltrated it with sjws so it focused on social issues which piss off half of america. All of america would agree on the economics tho.

occupy was a mix of homeless, meth addicts, and a few hippie weirdos. they would sit around all day and argue about how much they hate the government, they thought that the world would be better with no government, tho they had no ideas about how to govern themselves.

at one point, they had received a couple of thousand dollars donations as a group, but one of them ran off with it.

here's the thing, why are there so many homeless people, addicts, people with mental problems? due to the capitalist wall st run economy, they didn't hate on the govt they hated on the true source, it's in the name.

The capitol riot had weird looking people too, shirtless horned guy etc. It's easy to make fun of people with obvious issues but I know the problems compound from inequality and destroys families over generations and people make bad decisions which lead to drugs and diseases which effect the mind. To holistically solve this problem you look all the way to the ultimate source and that is the economy run by insane sociopaths on wall st.

No, addicts become homeless because there's a whole community of addicts on the street to enable them and their addiction. It's not homeless people becoming addicts because they are poor and miserable.
