1984’s “Two Minutes of Hate” comes to life.
>>”I understand why a lot of people are wondering, ‘Is this just some slick, kind of fly-by-night, slacktivist thing?’ when actually it’s not at all,” said Ben Keesey.
No, actually it is. All the kids in my high school are running around wanting to take up money for “the cause,” when most Ugandans who have commented about the video say that Al Qaeda, et al. are way more dangerous than Kony and Kony has probably been dead for 5 years now.
It’s a coordinated campaign to distract everyone from real tyranny, Obama2012.
Themselves and their bank accounts?
Make a donation, Keesey needs a new house.
Sounds like a lucrative T shirt, DVD, and bracelet business to me! Whatever Kony himself may or may not mean, and is he even here anymore?
I'm betting it's a Soros funded 'wag the Dog', 'Obama 2012', thing.
I guess ‘raising awareness’ of the brutal practices of this warlord is a good thing. I don’t know of anyone who likes the idea of 8 yr olds being forced into military service, carrying a gun the same height as they. But as far as responsibility for the donations, the only folks it directly affects are the ones who give money to the ‘Invisible Children’ organization.
PHONY BALONEY KONY 2012...............
“Kony 2012” = “Goldstein 1984”
Of course, “Milosevic 1999” was a resounding success.
Not so invisible, if you lift the blinders of the leftwing Media!
See "Why U.S. military in Uganda? Soros fingerprints all over it"(WND)
& "General tells Beck: WND has truth on Soros"(WND).
This subject was on WRKO on Saturday. Ugandans in the Boston area were calling in saying Kony has been dead for years and this is his phony brother trying to cash in.
I almost wonder if this whole thing is like the Petitions for banning Dihydrogen Monoxide, which are just to show how gullible people are.
2nd link POST-14 => "General tells Beck: WND has truth on Soros"(WND).
Anybody know when he was last seen?
Kony 2012 - Because you’ll believe anything somebody tells you.
AQ first tried to get involved with Kony, whose beliefs are a mix of Acholi tribal tradition, Islam and Christianity, and even gave him funding and trained some of his "troops" in Afghanistan [no info on their ages] but then they backed off and turned to aiding the ADF.
