Re: <nettime> The Revolutionary Role of a Transnational Counterparty


Dymitri

You wonder about OWS and its possible inability to have solidarity with the
masses.

Have you been following the Spanish precursor to the occupy movement?

It was had very real mass support and also hws taken action in support of
people in debt who are being evicted from their homes.

I think your focus on debt is great - debt is contemporary slavery; but I
wonder if the institution of a party is apt for these times.

Thanks Brian, I certainly agree that there would be a lot of commonality
with these movements. However, I think the opportunity here is bigger than,
we need to have a Mass movement, which the radicalism of OWS, etc, as much
as I love it, and identify with it, could never have.
