As Occupy
Nashville's last hours camping on the Plaza slip by, the degenerate remnant are
turning on each other. Two leaders of the leaderless Occupy Nashville, Andrew Henry and
Jason Steen, got into a fist fight one night last week, sending one to jail and
one to the hospital.
Various
factions within Occupy Nashville (ON) have emerged, each trying to take Occupy
in a different direction. Prominent spokesmen have taken to denouncing each
other and denying the other has authority to speak for the group. Those who are still sleeping on the cold
marble of War Memorial Plaza have taken to denouncing those who have abandoned
the camp out. Some occupiers are denouncing
others as "provocateurs" for their more aggressive activism that has
cast the occupiers in a bad light.
One leader posted a picture of himself on a street
light pole stealing some juice. Others denounce him for doing so. One leader
denounced another leader as one who "often conducts himself much like an
adolescent who got into his parent's liquor cabinet and now doesn't know what
to do with his drunk self." "His lack of self control while in
the spotlight for ON does damage to ON's image to the public at a time when it
needs all the support it can get."
Like the stranded British boys stuck on a deserted island in Lord of the Flies who try to govern themselves and it ends in disaster, Occupy Nashville could not govern
itself and the movement participants ended up turning on each other. They are now spending more time
fighting each other than the "1%." For all practical purposes, Occupy Nashville is over. It is just a matter of cleaning up the mess.
