You know, I have no idea who you are, but you are obviously in no position to judge the size or power of the anarchist movement.
The actions in San Francisco do speak to the gorwing power of the anarchist movement because they were planned by some kickass organizers who know the fuck what they are doing. As I pointed out, they are involved in other campaigns in their area and are in contact with groups around the world.
Which anti-G8 protest did you organize last week?
