his point is pretty obvious, that this occupy movement claimed it was doing some sort of community service, but it really isn't.
I don't think it's a huge deal, but this is one smartmuffin topic that isn't completely ridiculous or anything, no need to act oblivious, unless you just really are that dumb.
This. Except it isn't quite as simple as "they're making a false claim." The false claim is pretty much their entire justification for existing. This same newspaper has run article after article about how they're supposedly helping the homeless, and the occupy scum have showed up to a bunch of city council meetings citing their help of the homeless as why they deserve to continue to be exempted from the rules of the city.
Until now, nobody really asked the homeless. If the homeless are of the opinion that the occupy camp isn't doing them any good, all of a sudden, their entire justification for being allowed to stay is now gone.
