Occupy Wall Street: I Am Not Moving (A Short Film)

7 minutes, 12 seconds. A minor masterpiece of in-your-face immanent critique, expiration date as of yet unknown.

The quote after Hillary Clinton, "Hypocrisy has its own elegant symmetry," was from Julie Metz's Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal, which the OG has not read.

But he appreciates the line.

Not sure how applicable this warhorse is, but I'll trot it out nonetheless: "We must all hang together, or assuredly we will all hang separately." - Ben Franklin, at the signing of the Declaration of Independence

Robert Anton Wilson said he watched the film "1776" every Fourth of July. I enjoy the presentation of Ben Franklin in that film.
