not sure how many will get that graphic, but it is a brilliant take off of graphics used by the punk band the 'Sex Pistols". One song on the album "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" is Anarchy in the UK. Another is Pretty Vacant.

Other song references/similarities "Bodies", "Sub-mission"

The big difference is that the 70s punk movement was a bunch of nihilistic drugged out punks on a self destructive mission to let the world know that they were pissed off about being born and the Occupy Wall Streeters are pissed off because they don't get as nice of a house as a billionaire.

If the sentiment in the "comment" section of the STs is any indication, I'd say people are against these protests approx 9 to 1. The kooks protesting are extremely fringe, and will eventually go home, but someone made a good observation about those who have been arrested. When they finally grow up and realize they actually need a job, who will want to hire someone with that kind of record?
