Occupy is a movement that is part of a larger movement that started before Occupy.
I strongly support Occupy and would not suggest they change one iota. But there are millions of people that want to fix America that dont fit with Occupy. I dont know who is behind moveon but I havent yet seen any evidence that they are run by the enemy. We need to be united against the enemy, the oligarchs. They would like nothing better than to see us fighting among ourselves.
I will agree that moveon hasnt been successful, but that is no reason to exclude them. I have participated in moveon protests before Occupy.
Occupy isnt moveon and moveon isnt Occupy, but as far as I can see, we all want the same thing.
Be suspicious of those that would turn us against each other.
