Downstate wrote:while i have respect for all the good natured and kind hearted beans trying to support the awareness of this campaign, i myself dont think its going to solve fuck all, and as heartless as it sounds, its not Americas duty to go wading in trying to fix stuff in other countries when they have plenty of fucked up stuff going on in their own backyard. Im not saying this guy isnt a cunt, isnt evil, and the kids on the video are heartbreaking to listen to. Unfortunately im getting older, more sceptical, and just generally losing faith with the way humans treat humans. But it kind of annoys me that america/uk (da west) see's that it has to get involved in other countries business. Unfortunately we dont all live in one big country, there is no ONE LOVE. The west go and interfere with these things and its rarely successful or appreciated. Example - give millions to India for starving people when their government have a multi milllion dollar space programme ? Go figure. Chucking money at shit doesnt solve anything when the people running the governments are selfish greedy fuckers. id love this Kony dude to die, painfully, kerb stomped, then rip off his head and shit down his neck Duke Nukem style, but unfortuately problems in Africa are deeper, way deeper than this guy. Once he's gone , there will just be another. Bin Ladens dead apparently, did Al Quieda (dont know how to spell it) just fuck off overnight. nope. my point. well my point is, i dont really know. Just feels like another 'feel good crusade'. Oh lets help little starving timmy so we can feel better about our nice secure lives. I dunno. The comp is not a great idea imho. However, the thought behind the idea and Mr.Kool Skull - i have big respect for and will support. Yes i realise i contradict most of what i say with da nex sentance : P WERD. KONY - u is a KUNT
guys.. it wont solve anything. who cares i get it. but imma jsut do a compo wid konyz face awn it. so whateva. its just mainly for fun. im not supporting them "inv. Childs INc." humans,... so whatea
I agree though, THere are too many problems in the world to solve.
herr_prof wrote:that article wrote:Russell and his organization misdiagnose the problem in the country and promote a vastly flawed solution, critics allege. Kony has been out of Uganda since 2006, and the government that Invisible Children promotes is rampantly corrupt and uses a vast number of child soldiers of its own; they are not promoting freedom, but another evil.
The group's finances have also been called into question, with charges that it only uses 31% of its budget to actively help children in Uganda. As people work to fundraise for Invisible Children, critics want to know where that money will go. Others accuse the group of promoting a sort of white man's guilt, a "neo-colonialism" that takes Africa's fate out of African hands.
Religion doesn't seem to matter.. they just as evil apparently
Less people would question it if Bill Maher was in charge of the organization.

There are a million of problems in the world to solve, much worse and fundamental than this, yet I do not see enough fucking around with propaganda to fix them.
I would rather help first the kids of my own country that die victims of crime, and I should do it in a much more involved manner.

These thoughts, exactly.
I do not disagree with you, nor will I try to respond to it in a way that tries to negate what you said.
but hey, why not make a compo with his face on it? who cares.

also, I feel like everyone's hatin on this stuff because its rooted from a Christian organization. peoples love to hate on christians. give it a break... facts are: kids getting killed in africa. Kony is a douche..
stopping kony will NOT do much, most of those kids probably CAN NOT go back to their families. nature is broken, stuff sucks. we're lucky to not be in that world. VERY LUCKY.
woteva.. I'm not supporting the Invisible children "incorporation", im not raising money for them. I'm not for promoting propaganda for or against presidents or animal rights or anything, why not talk about this guy? yeah.. raising "awareness" helps "JK" know when to hide, so its like, kind of counterproductive, but the damage is already done. lets make a chiptune comp with his face on it.
If I wanted to make an obama compolation a four or so years ago, everyone woulda been on top of it. If i had started an anti Bush compo five or six years ago everyone woulda been on my nuts. come on. of course, the "KONY 2012" video is a form of brainwashing propaganda, maybe it has some points, maybe INVISIBLE CHILDREN INC. only uses about 30% of their money to help in africa (btw the people working at invisible children are committing their whole lives to this, why CAnt they raise money to cover costs and to fund their work?)..
who cares, I still think KONY is an interesting enough topic to base a compo on.
godinpants wrote:I know this isnt the place to discuss it but I think there are a lot of problems with this whole campaign.
The charity responsible for it aside, we are talking about a man who has basically managed to do what he does for the last 30 years. The idea that suddenly because we care about it we will find him in a year just wont work. Think of how "aware" we were of Osama bin laden and how long it took the US to successfully find him.
If anything a large scale of awareness will make him more difficult to find as he could move deeper into the jungle under threat.
The LRA operates on an almost cult level. Kony has presented himself as a force of channeling god and that is where his influence comes from (plus the guns). If he is removed, there's nothing saying that the next guy won't come along and continue to lead the group.
To be honest I'm mostly surprised that the LRA wasn't a think that most people knew about.
TL;DR - not saying the dude isn't a cunt. But stopping him is a lot more difficult than just telling your Facebook friend you want the government sending more people over there.
I thoroughly agree with this.
herr_prof wrote:Yea I saw the video posted before , but really just wanted a paragraph explaining what he sucks for.
good point, the description i gave is exxtreemely stupid.
a quick description is needed since the video is kind of long.
Joseph Kony is the leader of the L.R.A. (Lord's Resistance Army), an Army made up of Children who are kidnapped and forced to do Horrible things. these children are told that marking a cross on their chest in oil will protect them from bullets.
Basically, the KONY 2012 campaign is designed to encourage the US government to continue helping the Ugandan military by training the and advising them on how to best arrest Kony. we currently have 100 US military officials in Uganda helping, but the US Government has been talking about removing them possibly. Hopefully Kony will be captured this year.
