[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11d5Z_hPlto&feature=player_embedded[/media] [url]http://enditmovement.com/[/url] this is pretty much identical to all that kony 2012 bullshit from last year
I'm not sure awareness can stop slavery. I'm sure we all love the idea that we can help countries in need, but it'll only truly end when they have stable governments and decent public services.
Invisible children, AWAAAAY!

"There are more slaves today than at any other time in history" it's the same sensationalist bullshit kony 2012 used. there are more slaves than any other time in history because there are more [I]people[/I]. [img]http://enditmovement.com/images/home-collective-shout.jpg[/img] this seems to be 100% aimed at the same hipsters from before who want to feel like they're doing something to improve the world.
I'd be a lot more inclined to want to help if they offered a solution, other than just "lol share this and feel accomplished" That's why I can't take movements like this seriously. Yes, human trafficking is a HUGE problem. Especially in my area, but what are we expected to do about it other than share a video? Anybody who is educated already knows that this stuff exists, so I'm not sure what awareness will do. Offer a real solution, and you will have my help. Until then, keep these videos to facebook with the "1 like = 1 dollar!" pictures
Hey look its one of those, Hey buy all our over priced merchandise. We'll act like we care so much, but we'll only donate 5-10% of our total profits because we have to pay salaries here at our offices.

Not enough creators getting drunk and masturbating in the streets 0/10 wouldn't donate
[IMG]http://enditmovement.com/images/home-collective-shout.jpg[/IMG] this kind of fuckign stupid shit what the fuck does a red stop sign cross on your arm do are you going to go up to the slave trafficers and show them your hand and be like "yo slavery is bad here look at my red cross this means you have to stop" do these people seriously think they are doing anything at all

Its dumb, they know how people don't really give a shit, but want to look like they're doing something, its a fad.

Kony and Invisible Children is the new Badage Boys to me.

Is this another "awareness" charity? Were all they do is put money into adverts?
Comparably, I wouldnt be surprised if the percentage of global population enslaved is lower than it was in the past. If there are roughly 27 mil slaves now, and 7 billion people thats not even one percent of the global population. Just the romans used to enslave entire populations of people, and a huge percent of the population of rome were slaves. Wouldn't be surprised if there was a higher percentage of enslaved people throughout the rest of history.
Gotta love these FLASHING THROUGH TYPING STUFF ON SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES REALLY FAST TO PROVE A POINT TO TODAY'S HIP TECHNOCENTRIC CROWD videos.
We should get started on our own 2014 cash in, maybe Korea since it starts with KO and there's human rights issues so we can profit super easily off of that!

How long before the owner has a wank on a street corner
KONY2012
How about Kimjong 2013? We could legitimize a war against NK by virally manipulating the masses through CIA projects like facebook, twitter and youtube. It worked so well when we established US bases in uganda through the kony stuff and at that time we incited revolutions all over the middle east.

My English teacher used Kony2012 as the best example she knew of manipulation. Complete, shameless manipulative speaking. After having to sit through it for the first time, I can say it's really stupid.
Oh, and if I hadn't seen the video, I'd have thought that those X's on the hands would be people who are [I]really[/I] excited for The X-Factor.
