Circle Jerks

The "Circle Jerks, Noisemakers and Trolls" in ARS page is supposed to save you the trouble of reading "noise". However some of the names on the list are nothing more than dissenters to the ARS anti-Scientology consensus. These include some fine posters such Jonathon Barbera and Nec_V20, This once again speaks load about the so-called stance of "free speech" critics award themselves.

Interview with L. Ron Hubbard

A video on YouTube contains one of the rare interviews with L. Ron Hubbard. Unfortunately, it has been very heavily edited and distorted.

For example, zoom to 2:55 where Hubbard is asked to answer the question "what is Scientology". He starts to explain the origin of the word, then the commentator at 3:38 ask him to be more concrete. He let Hubbard state one single sentence then cuts abruptly and on 3:47 jumps to another out of context sentence that for the layman would be difficult to understand. Then the commentator claims "even after three hours of talking, we never got an explanation from him that we could understand" and goes on to provide his own (irrelevant and biased) interpretation. They didn't even allow the viewer to decide this for himself by letting Hubbard speak more than two sentences, mounted in such a way to make it look absurd!

This gives the tone of the whole footage. Out of three hours the team made a 26 minutes footage containing very little of the actual interview and loads of their own derogatory comments. They just selected out the few minutes in the interview that fit their obviously biased point of view.

The full uncut version of that interview is unfortunately not available.

Another Self-Serving Definition of Anonymous

Another self-serving definition of Anonymous:

"Anonymous is the voice of the body politic and the consciousness of the Internet that has stepped offline and into the real world"

never mind that this "consciousness" is basically just swallowing anti-cult propaganda so readily available on the Internet.

Moderate Opinions about Will Smith School

A couple of moderate opinion towards the anti-Smith current regarding his future schools:

"The important point is that private schooling works best for both private and public schools when it stays private".

"As hard as I've tried - and believe me, I've tried - I have never been able to get particularly upset about Scientology."

"If Will Smith wants to spend his money setting up a school so his kids get a step up in life, I say go for it."

Hip-Hop Web Site in Racist Attack

Hip-hop Web sites SOHH.com and AllHipHop.com were forced to temporarily suspend access to their sites on Friday after being targeted this week by anonymous.

Anons followed their usual policy in such circumstances:

"when it's bad, it's not us, when it's good, it's us"

Unfortunately for Anonymous, their bible (Encyclopedia Dramatica) is replete with racist comments, which they present as "satires". If you still have doubt about this, just read Anonymous own page about SOHH, that goes into quite some details as to the motive and modalities of these attacks. Also take a look at the Nigger Manual to see if their brand of "humor" fits yours.

Sarcasticbag.com has an interesting description of Anonymous, calling them a "racist pricks," who are incapable of moving beyond the "bullshit racist language that angry sexless middle class white kids use all the time."

Crying Scientologist

Anonymous spots someone looking at their protest from a window and decided that this person was a "crying Scientologist" even though there is no evidence to show this person is crying. It just is someone watching at their shouting gathering in front of the CoS and probably thinking they are a bunch of hateful individuals.
