I hear a lot of people of all political persuasions expressing frustration or even disdain for those in the occupy movement and it’s “lack of message.” I believe that lack of message allows for a breath in the endless political posturing that keeps us in such a rigid stalemate. Some patience with what the occupiers are bringing us could yield some fascinating new ways of thinking. One such example is from filmmakers Velcrow Ripper and Ian MacKenzie, which may seem naive at first but has a very substantive core message: a purchasing society does not need community and community is what is missing in America; love is a value as much as currency. Take a breath and allow in some alternative viewpoints.
