We are actually cheering for the downfall of our own country. Well done!

Here, people cheer for it.
First world, indeed.

I reckon I have to live till 120 years old before I'll ever see my money given back to me!
But jokes aside, it is disturbing to think this vigilantism can be cheered on by the common folk on the street. Disturbing that the people feel so much hatred towards the government, and more disturbing to know that they think a bunch of hackers can actually bring salvation to them....
I do sympathize with the cause (unfair/biased censorship, one-sided and skewed reporting by the mainstream media) but I have my doubts about the way they are going about to accomplish it. Two wrongs don't make a right.
