I haven't read this post, but I presume it is a strongly negative
critique of Occupy all Street. But I do not believe that Mao's
proposition (Oppose Whatever Our Enmies Support) is true in this case.
It's true that the NYT is fairly consistent in its strong support of the
might of Capital, but it can misjudge, so I reject Charles's argument
that we should oppose the Occupy 'movement simply because the NYT thinks
it has positive features. Nevertheless, the editorial should be
interpreted by the people occupying Wall Street as a sort of "Heads Up,"
a caution to consider their actions carefully.
