Ew. Just ew. Their editorials are hot garbage but probably THE worst part is their archaic subscription practice, which is an outright scam! Once subscribed there is no way to cancel it online, they don't even take email, you have to actually call them to cancel. And if you live outside of the US, well good luck finding the proper line.
Imagine owning a huge ass news corporation with their own mobile app, and yet they STILL don't give people the option to cancel their subscription via web or app. That's Wall Street Journal for ya.
A political "movement" to call for socialism and reject all things even resembeling capitalism. Typically carried out by uneducated, non-organized, and uninformed 20 somethings who still believe in communism and socialism despite their repeated failure throughout history.

"For sure, I'll bet he loves abortion, but hates capital punishment."
"Yeah, your probably right....to bad his mom didn't feel the same."

Please read whole definition
It basically is all of the hippies claiming that the corporations and banks run America and that in the current state, they have no voice. It has potential to gain ground, but there is a lack of structure and lack of a common actual goal.
The truth is, the way they want everything to be run, America will go deep into debt, the rich will practically have their money taken from them and then be repettitively raped and thrown in to jail for being rich, the 99% of America won't be taxed, college will be free unless you're from the "one percent", and the borders will be open with a big sign that says "come on in!"
I'm going to try to kind of make a statement with this last paragraph that everyone can agree with. First of all, we can agree that the super rich get by too easily, and a portion of the middle class have a lot of trouble getting by. What we need to establish is what the "super-rich" is, because that "super-rich" might be someone who has legitimately earned thier money by doing good in school, getting a good degree, and spending smarter, rather than some lucky investor. The middle class "not having enough to get by" is rubbish. If the government gave you these jobs you wanted, it would cost more in tax dollars that what that job is worth to the country. Having kids, wasting money in college, and buying a house you couldn't afford are not excuses for your lack of money.
I'm from the percent that doesn't give a fuck
Occupy Wall Street Protestor: "I'm done with the corporate fat cats running the country! I want to be heard!"
"The one percent": "How about you get out of college, get a job, and get out of debt. Play it safe for a while. A lot of the people from "The one percent" actually started out in the 99%. I really don't think that standing out here in the cold is helping you get any job or a college degree."
"The fifty percent": I really don't get what's going on right now? I'm not in debt at all, but I'm not exactly pulling in a huge paycheck.
