Tea Party Rips Off 4chan | Geekosystem

This is just adorable.

"You stole a slogan from a website devoted to cats, porn, and gore!"

Anonymous: We appreciate your resources and admire your tactics. You have taught us more than you know. As you requested we are no longer using the "anonymous" quote.

 

[Dave]

That. Is. PHENOMENAL!!!

 

[Officer_Charon]

Thou shalt not fuck with Anonymous, for Anonymous has resources far in excess of anything you have ever dreamed of.

 

[SpecialKO]

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

 

[Krisken]

Beautiful.

 

[Jiarn]

 

[Element 117]

That made me so happy.

 

[Troll]

Awesome. Why would any political group be stupid enough to fuck with anon?

Tea Party = Your answer right there

 

[bhamv3]

This means Tea Party is nothing but a bunch of trolls, right?

 

[Troll]

I find that insulting.

 

[tegid]

Hey, that doesn't mean that Troll is a bunch of Tea Partiers!

No, I think they are a bunch of GasBandits.

 

[SpecialKO]

No, no guys, the Tea Party people are serious. GB and Trolls do it for fun.

 

[Necronic]

They did it for the lulz

 

[Joe Johnson]

Awesome. Why would any political group be stupid enough to fuck with anon?

Because most people have no fucking clue what anon/4chan/etc/etc is, or have never heard of it.

 

[Denbrought]

Hahaha, this brightened my day. Silly teabaggers.

You're right. They had no idea what it was. that's why they were able to copy the Anon slogan verbatim. Unless I am misunderstanding your point.

 

[sixpackshaker]

You would think the person that ripped it off would have looked around a bit.

 

[Iaculus]

The Tea Party explicitly said that they are considering adopting tactics initially used by Anonymous.

Why is everyone so happy about this?

 

[Krisken]

They don't have the numbers and AREN'T anonymous? If they do illegal things, it's much easier to point and say "Hey, this guy is in charge of this chapter and is encouraging illegal behavior."

 

[SpecialKO]

If they actually wanted to be anonymous, they shouldn't have signed their billboard with their contact info.

 

[Rob King]

I'm thinking this was less likely an instance of the tea party ripping something off without checking to find what/who they were ripping off, and more likely a clever IRL troll by some /b/tard who suggested it or sent it to them or something.

Think about it. If it was someone in Anon, why would the Tea Party think twice about using it if they thought it was good? Someone else gave it to them. If the person was sensible-seeming enough they would have no reason to think it was something they should think twice about.

 

[Element 117]

I can't wait to see the pool's closed campaign.

 

[crono1224]

It's not over yet.

 

[Disconnected]

both groups are /b/tarded

 

[Krisken]

I decided to look up the facebook page to see what has been underway.

A response made by a poster....

 

[Troll]

Oh god. What a pack of morons.

 

[Krisken]

Oh god. What a pack of morons.

Yes, but they are funny morons.

 

[Espy]

I can't decide who is dumber. It's such a hard decision...

 

[Krisken]

Copypasta!

 

[sixpackshaker]

So? which is more racist anonymous or the tea partiers?

 

[Norris]

I can't decide who is dumber. It's such a hard decision...

Tea Party. They practically painted a bull's eye on themselves for 4Chan.

Yeah... I still can't tell.

 

[Krisken]

I'm with the channers on this one. While I'm no fan of the /b/tards, I think they actually have a case here. If someone stole the tea party slogans, they would have a shit fit.
