When I first heard about this, I was like "Oh hey, some raging butt-clenched guy trying a bunch of people's attention with a pretty video to go against one of the many warlords in Africa. I'm fine with this, I'm sure if I ignore it long enough, it will just go away."
It hasn't gone away.
I can't go a day now without hearing the words "UMG KONY 2012". It's driving me insane to the point where I rip out every Kony picture I see on a wall. The stupidest thing about this is that it's not even that well put together.
Just make it go away. I don't care. I don't care about Kony, I don't care about armies in Africa using child soldiers, I. Don't. Care.
Please, change this so I don't get spammed it 20 times a day.
Sincerely,
60% of the world's population |

"IKR, It's the new SOPA"
SOPA was actually even less severe.
That was more like "okay, there's some stupid law that goes against the internet. let's talk to our politicians about this, and if they don't listen, we'll have this one-day protest against it"
KONY 2012 is more like
"OMG THERE'S SOME EVAL WARLORD IN AFRICA LET'S SPAM THIS EVERYWHERE WE GO LOL" |

I completely agree with this thread.
All right, so there's some dude in Africa who abducts children and forces them to kill their parents. Why should I care? |

He's all the way in Africa. Plus, he can't do anything too severe with an army of children.
"He forced kids to kill, if you don't care, then your going to a very special place when you die"
You're forgetting something.
Child soldiers are how the Ugandan government first came to power. Please do your research before you decide to bandwagon some annoying fad. |

First we're targeting the orbital friendship cannon towards SOPA, then we wake up one tuesday and decide to go all "HEY LET'S FORGET ABOUT SOPA LES GO FOR DIS KONY GUY OOLOLLOLOLOLOLO"
Hey kids, we didn't save the environment back in 2008, so now we'll all come to a boiling hot death as global warming slowly consumes us and turns us into worthless puddles of flesh, isn't that great? |

Good man.
"What's Kony 2012. I haven't found that out yet."
The stupidest movement you will ever see or hear about.

...Hottest teen contest? |

Though Kony 2012 is still important,spamming it on the internet will not get him arested.It's better to tell friends about it in real life or talk to the Ugandian(spelling?) government.It's annoying yes,but you should feel a bit of sympathy for kids.How would would you like it if you had to give filthy men "service" or murder your parents and mutilate people's faces.I know,it's kind of annoying,but you have to admit that we all wish something could be done about this strange sadistic person.
What i'm saying is,there are better soulutions than spamming him on the internet. |

He started in Uganda. The Ugandan government is after him. He left so they couldn't find him.
Nice try, though.

That's what I believe, also. |

| If people don't shut up, we should just send a SEAL team into the congo to kill him overnight. Finally, we don't have to listen to children that think they are making a difference by buying $10 bracelets (in other words a 5-star meal for invisiblechildren inc.). |

The reason we see it everywhere is this.
There are roughly 6 trillion people on Earth, last time I heard the statistics. I only found out about Kony yesterday; if you can put two and two together, news travels slowly to some. It comes as a huge revelation to the person who just found out, and they IMMEDIATELY want to tell someone.
Birth of a new Kony related thread.
tldr; people think they're the first to hear something; spread it around like a disease. |
