Remember that time when millions of gullible internet surfing Americans were duped into professing their support for a cause of dubious merit spearheaded by a group of shady entrepreneurs because of a viral video?
Remember when everyone quietly forgot the subject they were so dazzled & easily manipulated by just months after the fact?

it was a great scam one of the best

Yes, it's called Election year.
It was a fad people wanted to be in.
Just like the ice bucket thing and whatever stupid thing internet spouts.

They should make a movie about, like a satire or something. Call it "Dumb Ass Sheeple"

It was the dumbest and weirdest thing ever. The slogan made you think they were supporting the guy or something, even today I'm not entirely sure what or who they were against.

It wasn't a scam, it was a legitimate charity and they're still working on the leftovers from those donations.
That said, they whole thing reeked of "white savior" shit, they had no fucking idea how complex the issue was and thought they'd be able to fix it. They weren't scamming people, they're just retards who tried to do a good thing, but wasted the money
I haven't kept up with the news, did the celebs actually endorse the guy who would later be the head of IS?
>>67155711
>just months
Try weeks.
The idiots forgot that teenagers have the attention-span of gnats, and so they stopped caring by the end of the week. And they waited two months to have their "cover the night" crap, which turned out to be fuck all.
They also held it on 4/20, of all fucking days, where most teenagers are blazing it up, playing Doom in honor of Reb and Vodka, or professing their secret love to Hitler.
Just another reminder that Californians are deluded, manipulative people.

He was only a meme. Rest In Peace, sweet Kony
The reason their slick appeal didn't work on me is because I always like rooting for the bad guys.
He can't keep getting away with this.
The cheesy 'emotional' music in the Kony 2012 video was a dead give away that it was a ruse
Feels good to know I wasn't duped
>>67155842
have they not kek totally forgot about that
>>67155711
I still occasionally say 'Kony 2012' to people so they don't forget who stupid they all wereincluding myself
>>67155842
>implying they aren't all dead
I wish we would forget about him.
>tfw I cared so little for that shit I couldn't even be arsed to watch the video

Mugabe is like 92 years old.
Kony will live another 40 years and then he'll become a cyborg anyway.

Invisible Children was a scam, bro. It was "entitled rich kids want you to fund their trips: the charity" and there were/are a lot more valid charities than that shit.
Remember that time when millions of gullible college age Americans were duped into handing over their wages and savings for a cause of dubious merit spearheaded by a Jew?
Feel the Bern.
>>67155983
this, but also a bit of>>67158040
It was a good idea on paper, but the retards who ran it were smug, rich white kids whos charity was akin to "like this on face book or you don't care at all"
if was pretty obvious, even to them, half way through there was no way they were going to make any kind of a difference but kept going anyway
got big because at the time it was close to the longest video on youtube(before the cap was lifted)
it lost momentum when the night of "buy our shit and put it everywhere " happens and didnt do anything after
the momentum further died when 2013 rolled around and KONY 2012 wasn't a thing anymore
it DIED when the founder jacked off and threw his shit at people in public as a result of a mental break
