Infighting at the Internet Hate Machine?

The organisation which does not exist, Anonymous, seems to be a victim of it's own success. Or so does the latest video suggest.

In a YouTube video from the 'group' the Chan reading folks are claiming that they have been letting in too many people from outside their own crowd with the result that they have been the target of criticism themselves.

The video calls upon the Anons to retake Project Chanology and to stop making allies for the sake of having them.

It also warns the leaders of Scientology that their card is marked and that the attacks will continue with "more subtle and shocking tactics".

And all of that planned for 08/08/08 of course.

Gentlemen,

Six months ago we went to war to protect our Internet from tyranny.

A call to arms went out, and was answered.

People came from all corners of the Internet.

Today when we look back upon our efforts, we see that those who answered that call now outnumber those that remain who came from the motherland.

The original unrelenting Anonymous.

This has resulted in Project Chanology becoming polluted by people who are judgmental of our ideology, and serve the wills of special interest groups concerned for their own survival, and not the survival of Anonymous.

We thought that perhaps, a new war needed new tactics. This has had unintended consequences. Those who remain in the trenches to protect our ideals have reached an impasse.

We ask those who have left Project Chanology to return and reclaim it. Bring back the lulz, bring back the hate machine, and do not let some rather forceful detractors sway you.

The time for making allies at the expense of our ideals is over.

The time to make an individual choice between complacency and action is at hand. We will not be segregated. We will not be run roughshod over. Anonymous does not willingly accept acts of suppression from anyone. Our will shall not be bent by outsiders any longer.

Do not consider this a new call to arms. Consider this a call to reclaim what is ours.

Consider this a shift from the tactics of the past six months to new more subtle and shocking tactics that will shake the Scientology organization to its very core.

Gentlemen, it is time for Phase Three.

We will ensure that when what is rightfully free comes under threat of suppression, nothing will stop us from raising our voices.

The world will hear us. The echo will be relentless.

We will ensure that Anonymous retains what is ours. Anonymous will reclaim Project Chanology once and for all.

Leaders of Scientology, your card is marked. Soon, you will be nothing more than a whimper.

Your organization will be ruined utterly, and disposed of without sorrow. Your fate will await, from August the Eighth.

We are Anonymous.

We are Legion

We do not Forgive.

We do not Forget.

Expect Us..
