That video is some trippy sh*t...

Okay, I give up. I don't want to be part of this anymore.

Yup, watch it, share it and get involved.
I do believe that if the campaign is successful, it will lead to other things, potentially changing the world.

Um this will be unpopular - and clearly Kony is atrocious - but there are rumours this is just a money making exercise by the 'charity' which then funds lots of travel and jollies for its board. Its possible, there is so much corruption in Africa. Sorry. Feel free to ignore me.

Having read more about Kony, it appears its not as simple as the campaign is making it sound. Regarding the rumours, wherever there is something posistive, there will always be sceptics and the internet also allows those voices to be magnified. I dont know the truth there is no denying that this is a exceptionally clever piece of propaganda/promotional material. The film shows the power of the internet and social networking, and how it can be used in a positive way, raising awareness, building support etc. It has now set a precedent and more will undoubtably follow. One thing for certain is that it'll be the subject of many media student case studies in the future

I think people are reading too much into it and looking for an excuse to tear it apart.
The way I see it, Kony is real, he is clearly dangerous, clearly a moron, and is wanted for crimes against humanity. If one or two people benefit financially from his capture (dead or alive) who cares really?
It's an interesting idea anyway, I won't be spending money buying posters, bracelets etc, but the whole experiment could become a blueprint should it be successful.
