would be just hilarious except that these guys are seriously attempting a Marxist revolution using complete idiots around the world.
Commies don’t have a problem making money (Michael Moore)or using other people’s money for their own ends.
The Soviet Union only folded because they realized that capitalism could best be used for themselves. Same in Red China (notice we don’t call it that anymore) 30% corporate tax in China versus 35% in US. You don’t think commies want to make money?

We make fun of the OWS idiots but it doesn’t matter, the commies don’t need smart people for their revolution, they just need zombies.

From Wikipedia

{{On August 11, 1999, Clinton commuted the sentences of 16 members of FALN, a violent Puerto Rican terrorist group that set off 120 bombs in the United States, mostly in New York City and Chicago. There were convictions for conspiracy to commit robbery, bomb-making, and sedition, as well as firearms and explosives violations.[3] The 16 were convicted of conspiracy and sedition and sentenced with terms ranging from 35 to 105 years in prison. Congress, however, recognizes that the FALN is responsible for “6 deaths and the permanent maiming of dozens of others, including law enforcement officials.” Clinton offered clemency, on condition that the prisoners renounce violence seeing as none of the 16 had been convicted of harming anyone and they had already served 19 years in prison. This action was lobbied by ten Nobel Laureates, the Archbishop of Puerto Rico and the Cardinal of New York. [4] The commutation was opposed by U.S. Attorney’s Office, the FBI, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons and criticized by many including former victims of FALN terrorist activities and the Fraternal Order of Police.[5] Hillary Clinton, then campaigning for her first term in the Senate, initially supported the commutation,[6] but later withdrew her support.[7]

Congress condemned this action by President Clinton, with votes of 95-2 in the Senate and 311-41 in the House.[8][9] The U.S. House Committee on Government Reform held an investigation on the matter, but the Justice Department prevented FBI officials from testifying.[10] President Clinton cited executive privilege for his refusal to turn over some documents to Congress related to his decision to offer clemency to members of the FALN terrorist group.}}

Yeah, somebody invited and knew about the terrorists. This foreshadowed the current calls to bring terrorists to civil courts only.
