Kony2012 really did show the power of the Internet generation (for lack of a better name). When the video first came out there was massive support, but then people started doing research and discovered what Invisible Children was about, and a large percentage of the supporters stopped. This all happened in two to three weeks. At other point in history, this process of finding information and spreading it out to the masses would've taken months if not years, amirite?
What did people find out about Invisible Children, exactly?
Only a 3rd of the money goes to its supposed caused, Kony has been operating since the 80s, the money was going to help militarise the state, and one of the guys running it beat off in public, likely in front of kids.
