They Are the Personification of Evil – We Must Persevere

Here in Occupy Medford we do quite a bit. Not all of it we plan but we show our support for the common sense movements going on around the country. We want money out of politics, we want the foreclosure crisis to receive its due justice, and we want labor to be a working relationship between worker and employer. We want other things as well, and we are constantly moving towards these goals, both nationally and at home. However, there comes a point in every fight when one side or the other feels the weight of their work.

In a fight against a group whom all the resources belong to it is inevitable to feel like there is no winning. However there are some common stories which should remind you how powerful a small group of people can be. First and foremost would be the Spartans at Thermopolae. 300 men hold off an army in the name of their people, their last breaths taking hundreds of the enemy with them.

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak started one of the world's most successful companies in a garage, forever changing the personal computer and personal devices in general. If they had caved to Microsoft, where would the world be today? Think of the designers of the constitution, though they may have had motives, they faced staunch resistance from England and from those who wanted things done their way.

This story is repeated over and over again throughout history. This is our time to repeat and then change history and we cannot lose faith in our ability to make change. We cannot lose faith in our ability to continue, to persevere in our struggles against a corrupt and disconnected elite who favor a few over the many. These heartless bastards have time and time again repressed the full potential of the human population by exploiting both human and natural resources.

This is no time to lose heart. The disconnected elite which we've allowed to rule us for hundreds of years has overstepped its role in our society and it's time they are either replaced or removed altogether. We are at the maker's of our destiny and these small minded monsters are no longer serving any purpose but to balance the good of this world with the evil they personify. This is the winter of our discontent, by next winter it must be their discontent fueling the balance of disparity in this world.

We love each and every one of us, they hate each and every one of us. What more do we need for motivation than the love we show each other at each meeting and the hate they show us by their every choice? You know what you must do. Find your niche, find your place, discover your potential and we will accomplish all we must.
