About
In July of 2010, the Oregon Tea Party co-opted the Anonymous slogan: We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.
The phrase appeared on protest signs1 and bumper stickers2, and at one point as the official description on the Tea Party Patriots website.3
Facebook Raid
By trying to use Anonymous “brand” (for lack of a better word) the Oregon Tea Party evoked the wrath of Anonymous, resulting in a DESU-spamming raid on the Oregon Tea Party Facebook Page.
In response, the Facebook page went invite-only, and posted a message stating the following:
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.4
