“HEY IS THIS THE TRUST FUND CLUB?”
“NO, THIS IS THE WE WORK OUR ASSES OFF CLUB … SOME OF THE 99 PERCENT HAS TO WAKE UP FOR CLASS IN THE MORNING.”
“This is what democracy looks like! Harvard’s what hypocrisy looks like!”
“You fucking selfish narrow minded people need to shut the fuck up!”
“What are all of these people arguing about?”
“Education is a right! not just for the rich and white!”
“Harvard has faculty that have made war more efficient. Harvard has economists that teach us that profits are more important than people.”
“WE ARE THE NINETY-NINE PERCENT. YOU ARE THE NINETY-NINE PERCENT… Wait actually …”
“ONE PERCENT. ONE PERCENT. OCCUPY J.P. LICKS FOR THEIR OVERPRICED ICE CREAM!”
“HARVARD OUT OF ALLSTON. HARVARD OUT OF EXISTENCE.”
“This is hilarious.”
“Those kids are obviously douchebags but they’re also probably on the lacrosse team so I’m not so surprised.”
All this (and more!) in my most recent post for the Boston Phoenix staff blog, Locked out: Scenes from #OccupyHarvard’s first night.
