Rogueish

This is excellent, but there’s one bit to maybe take issue with:

There is, or could be, a robust critique of the role of corporations in modern democracy at the heart of OWS and its offshoots, but that is simply unsustainable at this level of exposure. If Miley Cyrus can glom onto the movement’s message so easily, then it’s unlikely to be particularly complex.

Part of the reason Miley is releasing home-made videos of remixes of songs that came out 18 months ago is that she’s signed to Hollywood Records, Disney’s subsidiary, which apparently has no interest in releasing any more of her music. So, although Miley is as rich as fuck (if internet estimates are accurate, comfortably in the 1%), she has her own legitimate beefs with corporations.
