[QUOTE=Clark21;35146169]'White people' , 'white imperialism' , what the do they even mean? when i refer to the japanese when they were imperialists i don't say 'asian imperialism' or something like that. You think every european country/every european was involved with exploiting african countries? idiot. i'm irish, we're white, what have we ever done ? nice generalization..[/QUOTE]
The Irish were part of the united kingdom and this likely helped the British empire so the Irish are hardly guiltless.

[QUOTE=Cushie;35148100]A lot of people say 'Well the cause is good', and someone even said I was just trying to be a dick by putting the whole KONY thing down.
I'm not against arresting Kony, I'm against this charity who are using Kony to muster huge amounts of money from idiots who dont even know where their money goes. Someone genuinely believed that the money goes towards sending charity workers over there with weapons and equipment to find and capture him.
I'd probably support it if they weren't trying to mislead people into donating by making them think their money actually goes towards capturing Kony when it just goes to relief work like any other charity.[/QUOTE]
It's not even a good cause, it's taking away focus from the real problems in Africa and putting it all on one man, a man who isn't even a significant threat compared to some of the other warlords in Africa.
Blimey; didn't think it was so outdated. But even without the Kony debacle there are still issues in Uganda, especially concerning the barbaric hatred towards homosexuals present there as well as in other African nations.
[QUOTE=thisispain;35143668]how many times have white people gone to africa telling the natives they have intent to help, only to fuck them over again?
i'm all for building schools and housing but the more and more i read about this Kony business the more and more i'm adamant in sticking with a charity that i know does good infrastructure improvement for africans.[/QUOTE]
fuck this white guy, i'd rather support that other white guy
