Someone pulls the strings. There have been riots at some flash mobs.

It also provides a bunch of bodies to “mount a large protest” (even if the sheep don’t know it IS a protest being staged for cameras).

It also provides potential cover (or targets) for a planned terrorist strike.

But everybody ELSE is doing it so by all means, go where some anarchist somewhere says to go at “3:25pm” today...
