>when you want a government-sanctioned wage increase for not doing anything more.
Outside of unionized public servants, this really doesn't describe anyone.
>I feel like people that are successful are being attacked here. I've seen it time and time again with the protesters. They try to silence anyone that even has a hint of success.
Bullshit. Nobody's blaming the rich for being rich, they're blaming the rich for using their influence to secure ever sweeter deals from the government, privatizing the profits and socializing the losses, while everyone else suffers. Nobody's calling out Warren Buffett for being a billionaire, they're calling out the greed of those who use their wealth and influence to gain more wealth and influence without regard for the people they hurt in the process.
I know plenty of people, and have seen plenty of comments on the internet lynching many rich people. I don't think this was the original intent of the movement, but it is definitely an unintended side effect
Wherever there are protesters there will be a fringe of kooks riding the wave who want nothing more than to attract attention, either by breaking shit, hurting someone, or by trying to shock with their extreme opinions.
