KONY 2012

okayyy so kony 2012 is this campaign whose video which went viral and it's about this guy, joseph kony who is the leader of LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) and he basically erm abducts kids to become his child soldiers.

okay i personally support this cause, and i know that tons of people have been stating that this is a scam and have been skeptical or even cynical about this, well i basically trust it. (maybe cause i have always been a sucker for these kinda stuffs)


welllll, i made a donation yea so i just wanna do a part in this cause and if you don't know what i am talking about, i would just like to ask you to watch this video below:



okay yes i know it's 30mins long HAHA i was shocked when i realised that this vid is THAT long but by that time i was already halfway through so i finished it. and if you dun have the patience, watch how ryan higa summarizes everything in 1min HAHA:




okay so even if the non-profit organization, invisible children, did somehow exaggerate the story a little, i am still kind of opposed to the idea of someone abducting kids and making them child soldiers.
honestly, child soldiers!? even if these kids are willing to, THEY ARE ONLY KIDS!!! what do they really know? -_-
kids forever think they know everything but no they dun. i know this because i was a kid. HAHA.

though many critics are asking people to beware of where their donations are going to (for eg alot of their finances went into their video making instead of helping the ugandan people to build their houses etc) but making the video is indeed a really smart move because it made millions of people all over the world aware of this right?
honestly, i have heard of invisible children but i have never know what they are and i have never bothered to research. but when everyone is talking about it, you get curious and you know what curiosity does to you, you research!

what they are trying to do now, is not exactly to raise funds or whatever. okay maybe it's their secondary aim.
but we should consider their primary cause right?? which is to stop kony through raising awareness so that people dun forget.
they are trying to create reminders, so that the people will not lose interest and continue to support and thus put on pressure on the govt who would then do their best to help.
this is their primary cause. so dun sway away from that.
im sure they will help the ugandan people AFTER they settle joseph kony.
i see people on the internet condemning the kony campaign cause they feel that it's not right no matter what to want the death of somebody, even though that somebody is as bad as kony.
okay but honestly you think a organization like invisible children has the right to kill kony? -_- seriously...
and they are not the people who are trying to capture kony!?!?
the people who are doing the 'actions' are the ugandan army right??? -_- and whether they kill kony anot during the capture process depends on the army heads or the ugandan govt... -_-
and after the capture, the killing of kony as punishment depends on all those courts and govts..

and talking about how the video is centered around jason russell and his family, i think him featuring his kid is just to show the world that even a kid feels sad and knows that joseph kony needs to be stopped.
and he was just telling people about why he is in this, so that his reason might motivate and persuade you too.
and anyone would like some kind of glam right?? if he is doing that much, then i supposed he deserves some credit right?
or can you truthfully say that EVERY SINGLE TIME you give, you dun expect any return at all?
we are human beings, not saints.
maybe you dun expect anything sometimes when you give, but all the time? i dun think so.
so think twice on different perspectives before you doubt.



no matter what people are saying, for now, i just wanna believe in humanity.
this world will be a better one. :')
