I have noticed an increasingly significant problem with some of the major Anonymous
Twitter accounts. For example, one the major accounts posted that a young lady had
been arrested at Occupy Wall Street for writing on the sidewalk with chalk. While this
is probably true the details are not given. Her arrest might have had a lot to do with
what she was writing on the sidewalk (obscene remarks, etc etc). However only the
details that she had been arrested for simply writing on the sidewalk were released.
Naturally a wave of accounts instantly (without any investigation into the validity
of the matter) began to tweet hate towards the NYPD. There was also another incident
that was reported as police brutality. A guy who was refusing to co-operate with police
was taken into custody and received a small scratch. However, this incident was reported
as though the situation was severe and the police exercised heavy use of force. SRSLY?
A minor scratch is NOT police brutality. Kelly Thomas is an example of police brutality.
My growing concern is that a lot of Anonymous Twitter accounts are beginning to behave
like the mainstream media today. They're reporting everything with their own spin on it
and/or reporting unconfirmed stories that influence people to see it the way they want
them to see it. This is why it is so important to do your own research. It is foolish to
see it on Twitter and immediately take it as fact. I am beginning to see a growing trend
of people posting false/unconfirmed/out of context information. It is up to YOU to make
sure the information presented is valid. Do not simply believe it because a popular Anon
Twitter account says so. There is an epidemic of ignorance. But I think together we can
help change this. @AnonymousIRC said the Anonymous idea was built to fail. I respectively
disagree. I believe we can change the world. But we will never achieve that goal as long
as ignorance resides in us. We must educate ourselves. To be educated is to be prepared
and we cannot achieve greatness unprepared. Some will disagree with me on the entirety of
this letter. But some will see the importance of knowledge and education. Together we CAN
make a difference. Never be mindlessly directed by others and never blindly follow in the
footsteps of the masses.  Join us ~ Educate yourselves
