Occupy was a movement where carnivalesque was important. http://www.buala.org/en/city/occupy-wall-street-carnival-against-capital-carnivalesque-as-protest-sensibility-at-liberty-pla

 These include protesters dressed up as billionaires, cocktail glasses in hand, and signs reading “austerity for you, prosperity for us.”

Both the movement had some amount of nationalistic sentiment to it but one was targeted at the corporate and other was not. This was a fight against corporate but aap fought against corruption. Carnival against capital

But the real reversal of this carnival (or Purim or the Tadiabone), that old universal currency upgraded by social media, might well lie elsewhere, outside the United States, in the Arab World, the movement’s stated source of inspiration, setting the tone of this century’s worldwide wave of societal change, where American citizens might look a lot more like 99% of the rest of the world population, no longer in the privileged top 1%.

In so doing, this inversion of the world order would also help break that other binarism, between Western and Islamic worlds, and resist related reciprocal terrorism in which the body, as in carnival, is the weapon. So that to Rahul Rao’s question about what protest sensibility might befit a world in which there is not one single locus of threat, these protests and others to come respond that it might well be in the all-encompassing, inchoate and chaotic carnivalesque.
