Hate to Break it to you all this KONY 2012 thing isn't gonna happen....you know why? He's in bed with the CIA. The CIA is backing the Ugandan Gov't and Kony's LRA at the same time...The Conflict allows the USA to have a "Humanitarian aid" presence in these countries so that they can hand their resources over to corporations on a Silver Platter! you're telling me 100 soldiers with sophisticated technology can't find one lil hoodrat hiding in a tree?!? STFU! Its funny how this Kony issue becomes Viral at a time when Obama needs to rally support that hes doing "good"...
This KONY 2012 Campaign seems to be Gov't backed in the first place. This Video seems to focus more on Promoting KONY and making him known than promoting the charity itself!! The Gov't has graduated to using Social Media as a propaganda tool. All this is video is doing is Brainwashing and Rallying support in order to justify an American presence in Africa's resourceful nations.
Honestly, that's what I call a cool story bro. Such a riveting tale, I honestly copy and pasted it to word, saved on my hard drive, backed it up on a jump drive, drove to the bank, put the jump drive in the safe deposit box, and will leave it there until my kids turn about 12 (when they can actually state their age, and ask what it is I'm showing them), when I will pick it up, put it in an old USB drive reader and relay this cool story to them and tell them, "kids, this is what a cool story should look and sound like...not like the stories your generation tells."
That's a bold statement haha I'm a Croat n was stuck in war there between 91 n 95... We ain't fukin happy that the fukin yankees came in our country and tried to dictate our war which way it should go... Fuk states and their shit... They should stop tryi g to get involved in everybodies bizz. Fuk e Posted via RS Mobile
History is written by the winners, but I was under the presumption that if USA didn't help, Bosnia would have won the war and your parents, family, and yourself could have potentially been murdered.
I personally believe as a teenager that all the backlash KONY 2012 is getting is seriously harmful, not just to invisible children and this campaign, but just as importantly the kids in the MED's who wanted to help. I think it says a lot about the people who support this campaign by tweeting, reblogging and sharing. It says that the normal ordinary person does actually care and wants to help out the rest of the world. It seems that majority of people who support KONY 2012 are teenagers (How Teenagers Learned To Hate Joseph Kony : NPR). I think even if there is something wrong with the whole campaign, the teenagers and people who support it had noble intentions, something that should be praised. For a while it seemed as if even a seemingly insignificant Western teenager had an actual influence in the World, that we had a say in justice. All this backlash is telling those very supporters and teenagers, that they CAN'T help the World, that no matter their good intentions, there is always a conspiracy or a voice that tells us why we can't or why we shouldn't make an effort because we don't understand the whole situation.
people so easilly fooled they frivolously expend money/time on a cause that their impact is microscopic, the problems in the world cannot be solved simply by money and good intentions
if people had general good intentions instead of jumping on a bandwagon they would be much better off donating locally or even nationally to women's shelters, food banks, etc

They're not supporting shit by sharing or clicking like. I bet the majority of these mongoloids didn't even bother to read about the country, its history and geopolitical climate. The sharing is not based on good intentions it's because it's trendy, hip and cool. The scary part is how easily these people get influenced by a simple video; seeming informed, doesn't prove you're actually informed. These same people will vote for charismatic, good looking and well dressed characters without researching what they're really voting for.
Propaganda in Uganda... a classic case. Shows you what humans are capable of. Will never end. History keeps repeating itself. Always someone to replace.
Uganda has substantial natural resources, including fertile soils, regular rainfall, and sizable mineral deposits of copper and cobalt. The country has largely untapped reserves of both crude oil and natural gas.
