This weekend, as young protesters in the global Occupy movement took to the streets to protest unfettered capitalism, young people in Berlin spent Sunday mobbing a fashion outlet on Friedrichstraße for... cheap vintage clothing!

Check out this video (thanks, Finding Berlin!) with an appropriate "You Can't Always Get What You Want" soundtrack.

There you'll see how the hip kids flood a Weekday store holding a vintage sale the same way shoppers stampede at a Walmart megasale – even when the placed was rammed, people kept trying to squeeze in like sheep. The shop was utterly trashed and looted.

What's up with Berlin youth these days? Nothing better to do than bargain hunt?
