Today we number 15,000. Tomorrow we’ll be 100,000. The day after next, we could be a billion people strong — enough to spark a world revolution in how we live, love and think.

From the site:

Alright you redeemers, rebels and radicals out there,

Take Two.

Ten years after Occupy Wall Street one thing has become painfully clear: the people in charge of our global system have run it aground.

Ecosystems are crashing, financial markets teetering, climate wars breaking out. Suddenly humanity is in a Code-Red Emergency and our world leaders haven’t got a clue about how to get us out of it.

It’s time for another global uprising — OWS 2.0.

But this one will be a little different. Instead of marching in the streets and commandeering parks, we’re calling for a Worldwide General Strike — A Day of Rage Against World Leaders.

On September 17th, everything simply … stops.

    Im not the one that should defend this. Why do you believe that a billion people will join the strike?

      That is just their marketing slogan. The important point is: do you or do you not think it is a worthy cause to support (no need to answer that)?
