Kony 2012

Internet fad created by "Invisible Children" in order to generate money and make Twitter users feel better about themselves.

One does not simply destabilize an Ugandian warlord by sharing a video.

A campaign by Invisible Children Inc with the intention of making as much money for its founders as possible: otherwise known as a "scam." Last year Invisible Children pocketed over $5,000,000 (not counting salaries) and only gave 24% of their revenue to African countries. This year, with the widespread familiarity of their new viral video "Kony 2012," will bring even MORE profits to the fraud charity's owners.

A project on the internet to make Joseph Kony 'famous'. He is apparently the worst thing EVER, even worse than Hitler and Justin Bieber. He apparently trains kids to kill each other and mutilates their faces and shit in Uganda. However despite the bonerific quality of the video, produced by Jason Russel(who was caught masturbating in public days later), most people including myself think that its another load of overhyped shit made up as an excuse for Americans to exploit ugandan resources.

It also involves 'cover the night', a bullshit thing where people were supposed to hang Kony posters and shit on April 20. Only shitty graffiti saying 'stop konie now' was placed, usually in random colours.

I guarantee you this WAS HUGE fucking news in early 2012, just in case youre reading in future, but practically forgotten by this stage.

A fad started by a viral video, made by a man who was later caught inebriated, masturbating in public, and vandalizing cars.

The fad was posting "KONY 2012" everywhere, to the point you couldn't go anywhere without seeing it, to raise awareness on this Ugandan warlord who kidnaps children to fight for his army.

Even though the goal was achieved, people still felt the need to spam this crap everywhere.

Some Doucher in Uganda who killed a couple of people

A documentary on a real problem going on in the world. It raises awareness for a man by the name of Joseph Kony abducts kids and trains them to be child soldiers. It is believed that this video uses emotional exploits to get the viewer to donate to the charity so that the United States government can keep U.S troops in Africa. The producers of the video are also claimed to be scammers, spending more money on making more videos rather than on the cause they're trying to promote.
