I belong to the school that deeply thinks that the so called "masses" are generally very smart and along history have accomplished their main purposes. They have done through different kinds of fights and won  from radical and disgusting violence to pacific means.

In Paris, it is too recent to see if it will work, if it was smart or if it was not. But in front of any kind of social revolt which does not include killing people I am always willing to see if it would work.

Your thoughts are a very good point describing why they could be very intelligent indeed. A p2p low-intense violence that becomes strong by the basic loose network structure.

In any case, it will be very interesting how it goes from here.

I therefore claim to show, not how men think in myths, but how myths operate in men's minds without their being aware of the fact. Levi-Strauss, Claude
