'You're doing it wrong!' The annoying 'friendly critique' of
activists<http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/11/27/1040046/-Youre-doing-it-wrong!-The-annoying-friendly-critique-of-activists>

Everyone on the left side of American politics, from the near end to the
far end, has advice for Occupy Wall Street. I’m no exception. But it’s
useful to acknowledge first that this movement has accomplished things that
the more established left didn’t.

The problems of growing economic inequality and abuses by the masters of
the financial world have been in the background for years. Many
progressives longed to make them central political questions.
