This is everything I hate about Reddit/Chain Letters/Mom and Dads Internet.
You can make lists and ask for upvotes, but instead why don't you go and do some activism. Get off your ass and organize meetings, raise hell until you get people to care about the things you care about.
Sending chain letters on HackerNews is the most Masturbatory thing you can do on the internet besides the deed itself.

- josh2600 13y agoI wasn't implying you weren't an activist, but I do think posting a link to the EFF will result in a better response than a chain mail. I'm not one to compare the holocaust with mass surveillance anyways. Cheers for coming back and trying to add a little sensibility to the discussion :).
