The OWS bike lock metaphor
To the self-described “99%”:
The above photo is a visual metaphor for why the other 53% of us refuse to even listen to you. We are the cyclist, the bicycle is America’s economy, and you’re all those bike locks. When you block public areas and make it harder for regular folk to go about their business of making a living, you become assholes and we have no interest in what you’re whining about. When you camp on public property and transform it into filth-ridden zones of disease, violence, and crime, you become assholes and we have no interest in what you’re whining about.
That, and the fact that you’ve teamed up with idiots like the American Nazi Party, Democratic Socialists of America, and Communist Party USA.
You had your little tantrum and we’ve heard what you had to say. Now go back to work — or just go away — before the rest of us break out the bolt cutters.
