"A new centrist project does not have to repeat these mistakes. Nobody in this topic is advocating a carbon copy of the Second International (which again was only partly centrist)." (Tjis, class-struggle anarchist)
"A centrist strategy is based on patience, and building a movement or party or party-movement through deploying various instruments, which I think should include: workplace organising, housing struggles [...] and social services [...] and a range of other activities such as sports and culture. These are recruitment and retention tools that allow for a platform for political education." (Tim Cornelis, left-communist)
I'd like to see Occupy Las Vegas protests...

^ I'll have to pay closer attention to this. Hopefully I'll be able to go.
"Socialist ideas become significant only to the extent that they become rooted in the working class."
"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. . .Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."

It seems that every city now has an "occupy" set up for it.
Meh...in Atlanta they voted to make one of their demands a "FairTax"...I'm skeptical...

Friday Night 25-30 campers
Sunday Night 75 campers
I went down to the camp twice today, including to the general assembly. A lot of the local anti-cap/radical scene is showing up, constituency seems to have fairly radical politics; we all rejected the idea of petitioning congress (in contrast to the demands of Occupy Wall st.) or using the current systems at all to address our grievances.
Even my little state of Maine has protest planned...

It depends on where it is and who is organizing of course. I can see a lot of these having some confused politics.
Has anyone gotten any wind of anyone occupying Atlanta?
That they will. The fact that folks are in the streets and it is only growing as a "movement" is good. it is up to experienced and politically educated comrades to show up, become involved and help steer this things in radical directions.

There's an occupy in my area. But the fuckers are coming to ruin it by taking the politics away.

We need to get in on these protests and stop bullshit about this being beyond left and right. Get in there, promote the anti-Obama anti-Tea Party, anti-Republican sentiment. The people want an answer. I think that they might be turning to us next. We can't fuck this up, like we did the first bailout.
“How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?” Charles Bukowski, Factotum
"In our glorious fight for civil rights, we must guard against being fooled by false slogans, as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining... We demand this fraud be stopped." MLK

I would suggest going down there then. I look forward to your report back.
Wow, now Alabama is going to have four of these events. One in Birmingham, Auburn, Mobile, and Tuscaloosa. I don't think there will be much actual occupying going on, but there will certainly be some protests.
When people in Alabama are getting involved then you know this is definitely picking up steam.
