I was just reminded of an internet movement that came out of nowhere in 2012, KONY 2012.
I remember at the time thinking, ‘where did this come from’, it seems to go from nowhere to being all over the MSM literally overnight. Now knowing what we now know i.e. 4am talking points, charitable foundations stealing money, people trafficking, etc., I’d suggest that Kony 2012 has clowns all over it.
Kony 2012: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kony_2012
Add to this how Jason Russell, the director of the film and the co-founder of Invisible Children Inc. (what a name: symbolism will be their down fall), has a public meltdown that included a naked rampage through the streets. I’d suggest that this merits some further digging. Smells of MKUltra type programming to me.
My theory here is that Kony 2012 was the clowns testing how effective the new social media platforms were at spreading memes that would result in social change in the general population. I’d also suggest the whole Ice Bucket challenge was a similar test.
My initial digging into Jason Russell suggests he has an interesting family: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Russell
>” Russell is the younger son of Sheryl and Paul Russell, co-founders of Christian Youth Theatre, which Russell was part of as a child.”
So his parents set up a nationwide organisation for children, Christian Youth Theatre (CTY) obviously nothing to see here…
Or maybe not, from 2016: https://www.kctv5.com/story/31824180/youth-theater-accused-of-cover-up-after-allegations-surface-against-instructor.
CYT look to have tried to cover up allegations against one of their staff.
Or from 2011: https://www.kltv.com/story/14681696/slideshow?widgetid=44685
Now for a dig into INVISIBLE CHILDREN INC, the charity that got all that money off of the back of the film. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_Children,_Inc.
Follow the money - in 2011-12 they took in $20m but it doesn’t look like they did much with it:
>”…And according to Invisible Children's 2011-12 financial report, the company still has $12.6 million of campaign funds in its coffers after spending $6.7 million on expenses.”
>”…Its overall revenue for the year, made up from various sources including the Kony 2012 campaign, was $31.94 million. Its total expenses were $15.98 million. Of that, the company spent 81.48 per cent on "media, mobilisation, protection and recovery", according to the report.
About 35 per cent was spent on "mobilisation", about 9 per cent on media, 10 per cent on protection, and 27 per cent on recovery.”
I don’t have time this morning to dig into the Invisible Children Board of directors but my hunch is they’ll be connected to the wider web.
