Non-cynical, non-resident crusaders for change...
by Merlot Daruwala Sun Oct 16, 2011 5:30 am
...your time has come.
When the crowds in various Arab capitals swapped one autocratic rule for another, you could only watch it on TV and cheer people power. And in your home country (which you visit once a year), when Bibi Ramdev heroically dodged the brutal police action in a white salwar kameez or when Mahatma Anna waged and heroically won the second freedom struggle, all you could do was express your moral outrage and subsequent triumph on the internets.
But now, finally, you can be part of history in making without having to fly halfway across the world and live amidst the deprivations of the third world. Summon up and direct the devastating power of your moral outrage at those fatcat one percenters bwahahahaing at the protesters. Raise your voice against the blatant abuse of executive power against peaceful protesters by Emperor Obama.
Rid your adopted country of the greedy rich who pay no taxes and live off the 99 percenters. Throw away the shackles of those six-figure salaries and go join the campers outside. Sniff the essence of democracy from hundreds of (unwashed) 99 percenters camped out for days at Zuccotti gardens or the equivalent in your city. Be the change you always yearned for. Yes, you can.
