The caption on the pic above reads, "This is not a sign." This refers to Rene Magritte's (in)famous painting of a tobacco pipe, La trahison des images.
The sign in the top pic seems to be a snarky comment on the shapeless and impotent rage of the Occupy Wall St. protesters. . .a bit of too-clever mockery maybe?
The picture of the sign and its Margrittesque caption seems to be a wry comment on the careful media manipulation of OWS's public image. The message from the media to us is: "You are not seeing what you are seeing. Let us show you what you are seeing."
