From what I've seen, the OWS people don't even allow political discussions; there are people of all political affiliations that support it, so it prevents arguments that derail the purpose of what they're doing.

What is laughably silly to me is all this left versus right talk. A revolution could come from either side, or something in between.

Of course life will find a way. That doesn't mean we should ignore our impact on our environment; especially given how delicate some balances in nature have proven to be. Even if a given species isn't maintaining some balance in nature that other things depend on, we can still learn a lot by studying them, and have fun doing it. Besides, I'm not a fan of a bunch of people suffering/dying while adaptations occur simply because it's cheaper/easier to ignore the big picture.

Indeed. It would surprise me if it's not already considered suspicious to avoid being monitored/tracked by technology. It's at best extremely inconvenient for people to avoid it these days, so if you're attempting it, then you must be antisocial, paranoid, or have something serious to hide right?
