Speaking with one of the people helping me research who came up with a title for my personal occupation: OccupyTruth!
Thank you to those people in Vancouver, Oakland, Ontario, Denver & NYC who have added your efforts to occupying the truth!

Breaking News! Kevin Stevenson Is Important Enough to be On My Blog!
In a heated Facebook discussion with a concern troll, the person throwing ad-hominem attacks (who will remain unnamed) I told this person “Give it up, you’re not important enough to get space on my blog!”
Kevin Stevenson, who previously was a nobody, sentenced to life not being discussed on my blog, has now been elevated to the esteemed position of “important enough to be mentioned on my blog!”
Kevin joins such local celebrities as Harsha Walia, David Eby, Quatchi, Ruth Meta and Prime Minister Harper. Congratulations Kevin! But, watch out, soon there may be an “OccupyKevin”!

Vancouver (DTES,Unionist,CoC,Etc) Black Bloc, You are Useful Idiots!

Perhaps it’s just the reverberations of yesterday’s meditational yoga experience- but, this appears to be a somewhat deluded perception…
Please read through these questions and think deeply. Pay special attention when things start feeling uncomfortable:

David Suzuki is Buying Ads Using the Keyword “Occupy Vancouver”…
#WhatHaveYouDoneForMeLately?
David Suzuki came to OV, it was inspiring to have such a big name TV star come speak to us at OV! Later, he sent a couple very excellent PR gurus to teach us a thing or two about how to make and communicate with media.

Occupations Gone Bad… (Denver & Vancouver got hit by a boulder…)
Linked from the DenverPost- can we be more sensational guys!
An article was shared with me today about the goings-on in Denver. They are apparently experiencing some hard times. Here’s a quote from it: (click for link)
“Our decision is based on festering frustrations with a small sector of OD who continue to marginalize, silence, and threaten our communities and ally communities. Despite the hard work of many involved in OD, its political platform continues to be framed by and for economically privileged, hyper-nationalist white heterosexual males. Experiences of race, gender, class, nationality, immigration status, and a multitude of other identities continue to be buried underneath the dominant “We are the 99%” narrative.
