This is a peaceful protest

Some critics of the global occupation movement complained about using iPhones and other hi-tech gear from mega-corps during escalating phases of this shift of consciousness. Technology doesn't need corporations, capitalism or money for its creation, but dedicated and skilled people. 

The capitalistic axiom of money as prime motivator succeeded in the memeplex of the world-domination phase of human history. Most great inventors and scientists were not really interested in money, sometimes even rather naive in the crooked game of economics.

Without many 'natural' enemies left, survival on this planet of plenty could be a piece of cake. Food and shelter exists still in abundance, as humans managed to accumulate many wicked skills. Yet some people decided to implant the fear of human predators in the collective spirit of their 'nations'. Without war and paranoia, and with the abundance of practical knowledge collected over millenia and its fruits, modern technology, no human being should spend more than maybe 20 hours per week toiling for the essentials.

Our desire to cooperation get exploited by extreme competition - the common goal is 'to be better' than 'the others', instead of making it better for everyone. The idea to make this world a better place for everyone gets portrayed as unachievable, yet honorable ideal. Sorry, the markets haven't sorted that out yet.

I think that the occupy movement want nothing less than to save this planet from the destructive forces of soulless systems implemented to domesticate human beings. The diversity of talents, preferences, tastes, skills, visions, expressions of human existence can not thrive in a bureaucratic nightmare designed to disguise this cruel global social experiment that lasts already for millennia.

If we learn to respect each other as equals, we can create the solutions needed to sustain a conscious species with billions of members on a planet with free solar power for the next billion years or so, combined with an exponential growth of applicable knowledge about how to do more with less.

The world game produces only winners - for entertainment reasons competitions of all kinds will flourish, albeit without nowadays prescribed celebrity status. As mankind, we got paralysed by fear, inspired by memes like homo hominem lupus est. In groups, people were always able to self-organise their needs with growing experience about their environment, and violence among each other (like statistically nowadays) was mostly an exemption.

Yet during an average day at work, we pass hundred, if not thousands other people, all of them mostly harmless. Even in our crime-drama and security-obsessed societies most of our life-time happens peacefully. I know that some people are exposed to frequent violence in their families, yet I still hope that only a minority suffer from this situation.

What will do with all the time we have available when we stopped fighting each other for profits? At the moment, many people share, teach and learn. Being hypnotised by the latest movie and its paranoid messages hidden beneath cool apparel and computer animations, while vacating a body in a work place for the majority of the 'waking' time.

Humans are naturally curious, and the diversity of artefacts of arts, science and technology not only attract 'consumers', but encourage people to contribute to the richness of life. It's not like nothing needs to be done once we stopped fighting each other - the mess left behind swells our oceans and intoxicates soils and atmosphere, the struggle has left many wounded souls.

It's reassuring to see how fast creative solutions where found to support this noble rescue mission. Open source works not only for software, it works also for the economy. Open source money, open source technology (no more IP, copyrights or the like) can make even large-scale operations work out in favour of all mankind.

Our leaders pretend business as usual, while more and more people occupy this planet to rescue it. And bring their skills with them.
