The sequel to the mega-viral disaster that was Kony 2012 may only be 20 minutes long, but financier-turned-humanitarian Ben Keesey still manages to gravely insult the intelligence of an audience clearly more awake and aware than he and the corporate-financiers behind Invisible Children would like to admit. Surely though, they are more than aware of the real revolution they’ve scratched the surface of – a population no longer swayed by slick marketing campaigns and who are more than ready to confront such deception. That is why Invisible Children has not only disabled comments on their latest piece of propaganda, but have also disabled the rating system for their video.

Nothing could be more obvious about this than the recently-viral video put out by the political-activist group Invisible Children (IC) called ”KONY 2012″. This video has gone viral, getting millions of views in an incredibly short amount of time.
The organization exists to get a “movement” set up to apply political pressure from international governments to be more heavily involved in Africa, specifically to focus on supporting Uganda and other nations fighting Joseph Kony, a terrorist leader.
