Last night, Occupiers intended to use the #occuchat hashtag for a little Sunday evening solidarity.
Tonight is #OccuChat! We'll talk about the media's perception of the movement at 7 pm CST! #ows

@RealJamesConrad Tonight we are talking about the media's portrayal of Occupy. Also some wikileaks and I think offshore banking. #occuchat

The hashtag brought out the movement’s best and brightest.

Alas, conservatives caught wind of their plans to tweet about corporate greed from their iPhones.

The few Occupiers who braved the regularly scheduled Sunday #OccuChat had to contend with an occupation of their hashtag that quickly trended on Twitter.

Ultimate irony: #occuchat participants complaint that some barged in, unwelcome, on their hashtag. #noselfawareness

Virtual Occupy camp, meet fire hose.

#OccuChat We prefer to call it "The People's Fair Appropriation Of The Non-Dairy Creamer From Denny's"

I'm looking for a new air mattress. Someone mistook mine for a cop car. #OccuChat

She went to the cop car. RT @WhitneyNeal: Anyone seen Janeane Garofalo? Anyone? Garofalo? #occuchat

#OccuChat – Can I get a ruling? If two vegetarians are arguing, is it permitted to refer to them as having a 'beef'?

Hey, Occupiers, you do realize you can’t really blame conservatives for hijacking occupying your adorable little hashtag, right?

A final note to the Occuchatters:
Honestly, the conservative hijacking of #OccuChat had more direction and organization in its 30 mins that #OWS has had for a year.
