Abstract Note
We are peaceful citizens from all walks of life looking to occupy Brisbane until change occurs. Gaining our genesis from 'Occupy Wall St', we believe financial institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.
Please visit the Occupy Wall Street website for more information.
Following the principles of Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jnr, Tolstoy & Jesus - Not Bush, Napoleon & Caesar.
We will ALWAYS remain peaceful and respectful of all political persuasions, working with Police & the people of Brisbane. We simply propose a directly democratic and non-hierarchical social situation where neither capital nor the state determine the way we live or how society functions - that is what would be ideal. In other words, a real democracy in which we consciously and collectively determine social life. This is incompatible with both capitalism and state socialism - both of which produce economic and political monopolies.
We recognise and acknowledge the traditional owners of the land - the Turrbal nation to the North of the river and the Jagera to the South - and the imperial colonisation and subsequent occupation of this country. Sovereignty never ceded.
