looks like end of Occupy Los Angeles l

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Julio Huato: Here's another piece of evidence of the rivers of human talent that OWS is setting in flow... Why not say here's another manifestation (or illustration)? There cannot be empirical evidence for "human" capacity, since (in the present) there can be an equal number of instances of lack of capacity and confusion. Human capacity has to be hisotiraclly derived, not empirically. Keep evidence out of it -- or, rather, develop a meta-theory of the 'place' of evidence in the analysis of human capacity in the struggle against capitalism. Starting with empirical "proofs" is a kneejerk (untheorized and un criqiued) reflection of bourgeois ideology.

^^^^^^ CB: This is not a pertinent criticism of what Julio is pointing out. Some of us are exclaming in praise at the Occupation's generating political and cultural wonders. Julio is just saying , hey comrades, here's another example.
