We do not need a "one size fits all" label, nor should we accept one, even if it would be convenient for the media.

Our strength is our diversity. We are legion, we are many. Our voices will be heard, even though they are not all coming from the same mouth.

I don't even think demands are a good idea. If we make specific demands that are met and nothing changes it will defeat the purpose. Similarly if we make demands and lose it will look like we should just go away.

I think asking for the country to be returned to the 99% is a good start and there's plenty of places to go from there.

I think we do need to be able to articulate something that can resonate with ordinary people. If we really want to change anything.

We need to be able to articulate many things that ordinary people can relate to. A pat answer is the worst answer.
