"Jesus Loves Everybody. You Should Have Expected Us." Westboro FB page "brandjacked" by Anonymous.

[WilliamPitt]

George Takei: "After the Westboro 'Baptist Church' said it would picket the funerals of those killed at the Boston Marathon (and blamed same-sex marriage for the attacks), Anonymous 'brandjacked' their FB page, with epic results, seen here."



All the Win.

2. Beautiful!

Very funny!

[Buzz Clik]

3. What? Diana Muldaur instead of Gates McFadden? Do these people have no shame?

[TacoD]

4. I always thought Dr. Pulaski was a more interesting character than Dr. Crusher (nt)

[Buzz Clik]

5. I liked her better as the love interest on McCloud.

Dr. Pulaski was mean to Data. She is dead to me.

[hifiguy]

7. Yep.

Today's version of this trope is making Fluttershy cry. An Unforgivable Sin.

[eggplant]

25. (oldness warning) I loved her character on LA Law.

She plays unapologetic characters well, doesn't she?

[Ilsa]

28. Hubby hated her for the same reason.

But I contend that her attitude towards Data ended up reflecting his superior morality.

[CrispyQ]

30. I love the scene where she keeps calling him Data, with a short 'a' sound.

He tells her his name is Data (with a long 'a' sound).

She replies, "Data, Data, what's the difference?"

Data responds, "One is my name & one is not."

6. Dr. Pulaski was just unlikable..... And not in an interesting way..

I think Gates McFadden needed to kick it up a notch and when she returned, she did just that. Some of the best later episodes revolved around her character quite successfully.

(pure, raw, uncured opinion on my part. Disregard if needed )

21. +1

[Warpy]

8. I love every code kiddie who sticks it to scum like Westboro

I will be far less enthusiastic if they ever come for me, of course, but so far I haven't attracted anyone's interest.

This is absolutely perfect, Roddenberry's ideal of complete diversity posted on a stone bigot's page.

[mtnester]

16. Yep yep yep!

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. Cool story, but I don't get the joke.

And I did watch ST:TNG.

Am I missing something?

[arcane1]

10. Same here, I'm not sure where TNG fits in

But I love it nonetheless

[Tempest]

11. You missed the different races and nationalities, including aliens? n/t

[Tommy_Carcetti]

12. Okay.....

I was expecting it to be more of a joke. More like an observation, I guess. Still cool, but I was thrown off a bit.

I thought there was more to "You should have expected us."

[Tempest]

14. And it was posted by George Takai of Star Trek fame. n/t

[Tommy_Carcetti]

15. What was the signficance behind "You Should Have Expected Us?"

I'm just naturally curious.

[riqster]

18. Anonymous always tells its targets ahead of time.

It's a hallmark of theirs.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

20. Thanks. nt

17. Yes, I believe you may be missing something very important. I feel I can help you out here.

In the Christian Bible, Matthew 22::34-40, Jesus ben Joseph, commonly known as Jesus Christ, allegedly states what is commonly known among persons familiar with the subject as The Greatest Commandment:

34Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. 35One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’c 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’d 40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Anonymous, understanding the true essence of genuine Christian doctrine, and recognizing the hypocrisy of the anti-LGBT/anti-human/race elitist doctrine of hatred espoused by the misanthropic, christianist Westboro Baptist Church, has hacked into the Westboro Baptist Church site and posted a cynical, ironic graphic there, in order to point out to the Westboro Baptist Church leaders and followers the blatant hypocrisy of their pretending to espouse the Doctrine of Love, while spreading only raw hatred and bigotry every moment of their existence.

The graphic contains these statements: The top statement, Jesus Loves Everybody, means that Jesus Christ as a living divine entity, loves everybody.

The bottom statement, You Should Have Expected Us, refers to an Anonymous credo:

We are Anonymous. We are Legion. Expect Us.

Anonymous is telling the Westboro Baptist Church that they are lying sack of shit whitewashed wall phony pseudo christian hypocritical bigots, and that they should have expected Anonymous to attack them for continuing to spread hatred and bigotry.

Also, by using the images of some of the diverse characters from the Star Trek: The Next Generation Cast, Anonymous was making a statement about diversity, how we humans can be different, yet still love each other despite these differences, and go forward to work together to create a better world for all of us, leaving the ways of hatred and bigotry behind us as we evolve our own future.

That's the best I can do for now. It was not really meant as a joke. It's actually instructional, and as serious as it gets.

I hope this explanation is clear to you, and helps you to understand the nature of the graphic, and gives you something pleasant to ponder.

Have a lovely day!!!

[Tommy_Carcetti]

19. Well, I know all that.

I honestly was just thrown off by the ST:TNG reference. And I wasn't familiar with the Anonymous credo.

I thought it was a joke given the apparent randomness of the image.

[Zorra]

22. Here's another Anonymous "credo":

[siligut]

23. This is so well said

I tend to believe that Anonymous is a noble group with high ideals and worthy deeds and apparently, so do you.

[Zorra]

27. Generally speaking, you betcha!

Similar in essential nature to Occupy, but generally, though not exclusively, using different methods to work toward global justice and equality.

[AsahinaKimi]

13. I frankly would have used Monty Pyton

No one expects the Spanish inquisition!!!

[siligut]

24. lol, wouldn't it be enlightening to show the dirt on Fred and his followers

If what we see on public view is any indication, what they do in private would truly frighten people.

[zappaman]

29. NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

"Our chief weapons are...um...er..."

[Liberalynn]

26. That's great!

31. Torture them with the COMFY CHAIR!!!
