  • atomicpoet, on 02/11/2008, -5/+127I've been watching this whole thing with interest for the past month. To be honest, I'm impressed. Oftentimes, I've seen mass movements run out of steam quite quickly, but Anon has kept the ferocity of its attack up. You've convinced me to join the next raid on March 15.

  • down4twenty, on 02/11/2008, -1/+37yea me too. I was severely underestimating anon
  • Hitpoint, on 02/11/2008, -3/+39Proud to say i took part in this, we spread the truth about Scientology to alot of people today.
  • arzim, on 02/11/2008, -3/+38I wondered initially if the anti-$cientology craze was going to last. Blackfaxing and scary internet videos are all well and good, but it's protests and live-action activism that will win this fight. Props to those of you taking a stand against the egregious criminal acts of this deceitful cult and I throw all my support behind you.

    Dugg for pride in Anon.

  • gothicform, on 02/11/2008, -3/+177300 in the whole world isn't much but this is just the beginning. Thanks to Anonymous actions public awareness will grow until this becomes a mass movement, one that sees Scientology as it is - a business which exploits vulnerable individuals for financial gain.

  • diversionmary, on 02/11/2008, -2/+13The tenth of febember
  • HonestAbe, on 02/11/2008, -0/+10No, it's media attention and discussions with actual Scientologists that will win the fight.

    Regular people don't see live protests; they're too busy sitting on their fat asses watching TV. Protests are therefore good because they get on the news and are seen by thousands of people, not really because of the few hundred people reached in person by the protest itself.

    Followers won't be freed from the cult by protests, either. De-conversion requires talking to the followers themselves and getting them to challenge their own beliefs. "Longcat is long" signs won't help with that part.

  • subgeniusd, on 02/11/2008, -1/+11Better notify the Digg admins. I guess they've never heard of this "gaming Digg" situation. :P
  • inactive, on 02/11/2008, -0/+97300 people not bad - of course how many anon stories on digg have more diggs than that. for those of you who actually want to do something to make a difference you can start by writing your respective governments and trying to convince them to remove scamentology's tax exempt status.

  • markwilcox, on 02/11/2008, -0/+8February 10 was only the beginning.
  • arzim, on 02/11/2008, -0/+8"Protests are therefore good because they get on the news and are seen by thousands of people, not really because of the few hundred people reached in person by the protest itself."

    Agreed. I think that the other goals--getting people to leave the cult, etc., will follow the more attention and publicity this movement gets. The most important thing, at the moment, and the reason I'm so happy about 10 Feb, is that Anon is actively shedding the vindictive, youthful, hacker image which, though it may have been true a month ago, is no longer true and is, in fact, the exact image that CoS is painting of Anon. To call hackers 'cyberterrorists' could be accurate, but to call protesters whose modus operandi is peaceful and firm, "cyberterrorists" and "religious bigots" only serves to make CoS look foolish and desperate. Well, more than they already do. :P

  • inactive, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9And scared the ***** out of them...
  • wolferz, on 02/11/2008, -1/+9Actually.. I've got a really strange feeling that this is a LOT more than Ron Paul could have possibly hoped for. This could be the first real grass roots movement to come FROM the internet. With that in mind it could get very big, last a very long time, and be very beneficial/dangerous.

    I've been lurking on image boards and such populated by anonymous for almost a year now. My opinion of them still wasn't much more than "a bunch of angsty kids on the internet from their basement looking for porn, warez, and internet friends." From the looks of things I was dead wrong.

  • badjoke, on 02/11/2008, -0/+8But sadly, not over.
  • BobbyMC, on 07/21/2008, -0/+7Being lazy is one thing. Heck, that's why I didn't do anything. (well, that and everytime I see one of these out of control self titled anons being all theatrical I get really put off). But to not do something of which the purpose is so big because some asstard aquaintance told you not to? That's giving in to the apathy the core force in anon exists to defeat.

    Now that anon has proven it is at least mostly serious and not represented by these idiot theatricalists who probably didn't even go to the raids, I might just give them my support. I've been trying to find people as dedicated as anon for years and eventually lost faith in the ability for people to unite.
  • boombye, on 02/11/2008, -2/+9If only I could throw a stone at you from here you weirdo.
  • isunktheship, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6you're
  • HonestAbe, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6Aw, c'mon. It's a good first step. A win here, no matter how small, will just encourage them to win elsewhere.
  • timewarp424, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6I hate when people confuse what's popular and what's right. Ron Paul is popular (and someone people THINK right). Getting rid of scientology IS what's right, and whether or not it's popular, doesn't matter. Quit trying to be the rebel.
  • Shananra, on 02/11/2008, -1/+7Damn, I was feeling really good about these protests until I saw the picture of that anon getting in the face of that scientologist. Poor show.
  • phyrespike, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6Movements with smaller targets like this, though, are important in the course of history. It is the manifestation of a synthesis between grassroots energy and the internet to acheive a political goal. This is a large step in the direction that Howard Dean's presidential campaign begun.
  • badjoke, on 02/11/2008, -0/+6/b/tards are talking about not being angsty teenage *****? Is there some distinction between that and being annoying, pasty teenage ***** who prefer to talk like 9 year olds all day?
