Well, it already happens to a certain extent. For instance, the Occupy Brno (CZ) event was organized by the Pirate Party.

Pirate Party UK will likely be releasing a statement in the coming days regarding #occupylsx and the occupy movement in general
/psuedo-official hat off

That being said, I haven’t a clue what it’ll be yet.

Each supporter of occupy should look at that their local Pirate Party stands for, if they can agree, they sign up to the Party and become a member. That will help the PP grow, and should enough Occupiers do this it will provide the Occupy with legitimate support from a political party. If Occupiers don’t like what PP stands for and don’t join, then there’s no point trying to shove two different entities together that don’t want to be the same.

And how do you explain the fact that the occupy movement has spread over the US and over the world? And let’s not forget the protests in Greece, Spain, Egypt. They might have different (or defined) ideologies in some of the cases but isn’t this proof that the majority of the ppl aren’t ok with how things are running? Is it really presumptuous? Perhaps the ones that are silent haven’t realized how bad things are?

It’s not as simple as poor vs rich, you missed the point. And the lack of awareness doesn’t mean the occupy movements aren’t legit. If the mainstream media was actually neutral and ethical they’d be giving more space and reporting about the occupy stuff in an unbiased way. I’m kind of following this. When given a (small) space in the news, the occupy ppl are painted as some sort of vandals that are confronting the police and trying to destroy private property. It’s not true.

And I do agree with you that we should be protesting against ppl making shitloads of money (much more than they really will use in their lives) but that just defeats your argument. You too are unsatisfied with something. You too feel that there are ppl earning too much for nothing. I’d guess you are in the 99% label then, even though it might not be 99% (yet).
