Given this quote... I'm gonna say he was insane prior to the success of Kony2012

"I am from San Diego California with an upbringing in musical theater. I am going to help end the longest running war in Africa, get Joseph Kony arrested & redefine international justice. Then I am going to direct a Hollywood musical. Then I am going to study theology & literature in Oxford, England, and then move to New York to start “The Academy” – which will be a school where the best creative young minds in the world attend...and [if] Bono had a baby, I would be that baby."

I like that this is a condition brought on by "extreme exhaustion and dehydration." This is why at the end of the Boston Marathon, many of the runners drop their shorts and jerk off in victory.

Same as no one remembering WMD which is the same thing they are trying to do with Africa. By creating a boogeyman who they could never find and use as an excuse to ravage country after country.

No one chooses to have a psychotic break.

The vid really made me LOL though.

Another video....closer-up to the action.

Semi-NSFW (although everything is blurred). You can hear him ranting:

Working based on percentages,
Red Cross; CEO salary, $995,718; Percent of total expenses, 0.02%.
Invisible Children; CEO salary, $88,241; Percent of total expenses, 0.99%.

I also disagree that many people do not want to do this work, many people do, but they choose not to because they would normally need to accept very low wages to do so on a full time basis.

Didn't know about the directors/editors but you can't deny the success of their video.

As for the percentages.. Who cares what the percentage is? People are pissed that he's making $90,000. Not that it's almost 1% of the total expenses. They are all upset, thinking more of that money should be put towards the cause. If people knew how much the Red Cross CEO's salary was there would be a huge outrage over it.

I understand that doing non-profit work is actually a lot of work so I'm not complaining. I was saying I don't understand why people are making a big fuss about the salary when its part of running a business.

You also just proved my point. Lots of people WANT to but won't unless they get paid above average wages (because it really is more work/stressful). I think we're on the same page, you might have misinterpreted my original post..

Because people are finally realizing Invisible Children and the idiots that run it are nothing but douchebags and scam artists. Take it from someone who has been on the ground as a private security contractor providing actual help to locals, these guys do virtually nothing for the continent of Africa, just lining their own pockets.

Dude was clearly high as a mother and figured it was a good idea to finally come out of the closet. Look at the Oh-no-you-din't hand wave with perfect.

You can't tell me he ain't gay. You can't.

Here's the latest IC video. It addresses criticism from the original Kony 2012 video:

It also means another round of unfriending in Facebook :D

It'll be interesting to see their financials next year.
