"In George Orwell's 1984, there was an organization known as the Ministry of Peace, whose purpose was to promote perpetual war. The Wiki definition[16] explains that 'If the citizens of Oceania have a well-defined enemy, Eastasia or Eurasia, then they know whom they hate, and constant homeland propaganda helps to convince them to vent all their unconscious rage for their own country against the opposing one. Since that means the balance of the country rests in the war, the Ministry of Peace is in charge of fighting the war (mostly centered around Africa and India), but making sure to never tip the scales, in case the war should become one-sided.'

"That definition has come into fruition with Ari Fleischer's 'Freedom's Watch' organization. While not a government agency per say, certainly it is doing the White House's bidding by overtly connecting the war in Iraq to 9/11 in an attempt to influence the American public into 'staying the course'," the Armchair Generalist states.

When someone posts something anonymously it appears they do not believe it enough to sign their name to it. My name is always attached to everything I post because I never post sommething I don't believe in. Registering here is free and easy so why not put a name to it and show you really believe what you say?

Anonymous speech is a cornerstone of the internet. It is an expression of freedom and a shield against retribution by employers, etc. for espousing unpopular viewpoints. I occasionaly post anonymously just on principle. I am, however, not the poster of this picture or the anonymous person posting earlier in this topic.

Yeah, the retribution on this site is so harsh; someone my say something mean to you or call you a nasty name. Don't blame you for being afraid.

if you had said, "it's a way for people living in countries where freedom of speech is not a reality to speak their ming w/o retribution...yada yada yada". then i might agree.
but seeing as there are few of those examples around anymore, i stand by the sniveling comment.

freedom of speech is a relative reality even in the U.S. you can't tell a co-worker to kiss you ass, or even a female co-worker she has a nice ass so...

I would hardly call it "sniveling cowardice". After all, one could easily begin posting under a name like "Joe Smith" then change names later. Or create another name "Bob Wilson" and make supporting posts agreeing (or disagreeing) with Joe Smith. You can discard your identity easily here, so it is not "brave" to post using a screen name. It is the same reason how we vote in elections is private.

This shit sounds like when my old lady is pissed of at me for drinking too much, I'll just tell her that the bitch next door says she's fat and 10 minutes later we're both pissed of at the bitch next door....(problem solved)

Well my screen name is indeed my real name and I don't care who knows it. I am not afraid of retribution of any kind so I use my own name. When I have an opinion I own it lock stock and barrel and I am not afraid to put my name to it. Why would anyone be afraid of anything on this site?

I'll stick by what I've said for a long time here. Anyone unwilling to at least adopt even a bullshit ID here of some sort points to weakness in their own convictions. And as for retribution for lack of anonymity .... gimme a fuckin break.

Reprisals here are nonexistant and if your fear is retribution for posts contrary to work necessitated positions it's easy enough to drum up some totally BS handle that cannot be tied to oneself specifically so that BS can fly out the window with the bath water too eye

I think cowardice and a desire to achieve a total lack of accountability (or plausible deniability) for ones thoughts or ideas is the main reason people want to remain anonymous here.

I have always gone by my name, here as well as most other places on the net, and my real world email addy never leaves any doubt about who you're contacting when you key it in.

To me, anyone who chooses to hide in total anonymity in an already anonymous medium like the net is exhibiting a massive case of paranoia eye

I guess these anonymous people never voice their opinions anywhere in real life where they can't hide their name. I have the same opinions in public as I do here and I don't care who knows it. There are no reprisals on the internet which can get anyone in trouble unless you are doing something illegal. One should always stand behind their convictions unless they plan to waffle on them. My real name is Goins and I stand behind my convictions regardless of who disagrees with them.
