I don't know, I just think if I had access to a network with the resources, knowledge, and technology as Anonymous, I would do more with it then call for the Fed chair to resign.
Can you say 'wasted effort"? Good, I knew you could.

Wasted effort sure. Maybe more people will be aware of the problems with fractional reserve banking. What would you do if you had their resources?

I don't know, maybe they're talking a big game about what they know, and who's down. I would think in this day and age (again I may just be ignorant) that a systematic attack on the very machines that perpetuate the bureaucracy can be carried out (in much the same way the Wobblies of old sabotaged the factory machines). I just can't see any direct affect of Anonymous's "campaign" anywhere in my day to day.
I don't know, it seems like a big effort for zero results.

Hopefully they will be well cornholed in a nice Turkish prison. You want to vandalize the system? Go ahead. Then take the cock like a man when you get busted. Enjoy.

There are far better and legal way's to change the system than destruction. All this will do is cause a bigger crackdown on the net. With the way they go about things, they are giving reason to add more state power, and contributing to the thing they despise.

He was a little coarse in his statement, but he's right. For instance, I want drugs to be legal, but if I get arrested with them I'm not gonna blame the system. I fully understand the implication of my actions and that includes accepting any punishment. Don't like the laws? Change the law, but don't bitch about it if you're caught and punished.

Simply making people aware of the situtation at hand. Social change is slow, but all you have to do is look at public opinion of something like cannabis legalization to see that the paradigm is slowly shifting.

it's tough and no one has the answers. How often in history has there been sudden massive shifts in the way things operate? I don't know about you, but I have a pretty good life in this country. Yes, there a bunch of things that if I could change them right now I would. That isn't going to happen though. All I can do is live my life the best I can and try to make people aware of issues that are important to me.

Turkish prisons suck. Turkey sucks. But I've been to prison, but not for vandalizing the system, no I questioned it and got a 18 month sentence for inciting to riot. Does that scare me into compliance? No. Made me cagey though.
I like the idea of slowly changing people's minds with information, but when does taking one's time turn to wasting one's time?
Hey Zappa, its been my experience that only the willing, and the bitch, get raped in prison. Which one would you be?

You just have to know a lost cause when you see one. For me, I subtly bring up things and try to show my perspective on issues. Changing a mind here or there may not seem like a big deal, but collectively its huge. By being violent and destructive you empower the system and only cause pain for yourself.

I can agree with about halfway here. Its like recognizing a lost cause, when you don't incite violence and destruction for the sake of violence and destruction, but for a higher purpose. Example, if the bomb had not been dropped (twice) on Japan during WWII, the war would have lasted much longer and cost more lives. Did you know that during WWII, not a single Japanese unit surrendered throughout the entire conflict?
Since all authority stems from violence, by allowing only the system to be violent we empower the system indefinitely.

You need to allow the system to be violent when appropriate. That's what government is, force through the barrel of a gun. Do I think the federal government's to involved in everything, yes. Do I wish for government's role to be reduced to the powers delegated by the constitution and no bullshit over interpretation of the commerce clause, yes.It took a while to get where we are now and it is going to take a while to get where we need to be. IMO, by being violent you give reason to the government to respond in kind.

I don't see what change has to do with angst. Sticking your head in the sand isn't maturity, it's willful ignorance.
Anonymous has roots in inane childish pranks and has grown to involve themselves in far more serious matters as well as inane childish pranks.
This video gives some idea of what the idea of Anonymous is. I personally haven't participated in many of their activities, I find the idea perfectly fascinating.

Perhaps I should have been clearer. What I meant by angst is, think of the actions people commit when they feel this way. It certainly doesn't further your agenda. I didn't mean willfull ignorance. Be politicaly aware, attempt to change the minds of those around you, but don't be violent and all in your face about it. linkamathingy
I wouldn't go as far to say controlled opposition, just usefull. Those are the things you have to keep in mind when acting out.

Exactly!
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Exactly. Something given has no value. I think I remember some dead, rich, white guy, saying that freedom isn't free that the cost must be repaid with the blood of tyrants and patriots. Just like hard-working, self-made millionaires always seem to have obnoxious children.

Hell. Maybe a full on depression would do my generation good. It(regrettably) took me many years to appreciate how much luxury I am afforded on a daily basis. In my opinion, it just comes down to parenting. My parents gave me a childhood they never had and did I appreciate it at the time. Fuck no. Outside of the basics, my children will work for almost everything they want. Regardless of how much I currently make. Free shit just makes people wanna suck on the tit that much more.

Our schools are always telling children about rights, with no lesson planned on responsibility. You tell a child nothing but what people are expected to give them, and nothing about what is expected of them in return, you have just created a brat.

That is not my experience. The children with a greater sense of government entitlement seem to come more from bum parents than rich ones.

I can see your point. Kids of poor parents are more likely to expect a gov't handout, but in my experience, the rich expect everyone else to serve them. I just think it is an example, regardless of economic status, that not teaching your children their responsibility in this world, breeds ungrateful noncontributing brats.

Anonymous(the group) is not anonymous by naming themselves. they're a group of people promoting chaos over order.
anonymous: without any name acknowledged, as that of author, contributor, or the like: an anonymous letter to the editor; an anonymous donation.
i feel i must warn people because so many misunderstand the group and advocate what they do, because of a cool movie they saw, all the while internet privacy is whittled away, in wait of a false flag meant to convince the masses of a need to destroy Anonymous(which they have confused with anonymous).
