so is amnesty international one of those "discredited" biased liberal commie pinko institutions that is only credible when they make shitty propaganda about dark skinned people you don't like?

[dwer.livejournal.com]

funny, I wouldn't have thought Amnesty International was really in your... idiom.

[mcpreacher.livejournal.com]

well, they're totally not credible when it comes to things like joe arpaio... FOR SOME REASON

[i.livejournal.com]

fuck joe arpaio

Where are the pictures of innocent Iraqis being shot at checkpoints by American soldiers or Palestinian villages being decimated by a huge water gun in the sky?

being kept in the same lockbox as merig's intellectual honesty

[merig00.livejournal.com]

naah they don't exist just like your sense of humor

[udoswald.livejournal.com]

Sounds like either the biggest or smallest box I've ever seen.

oh.

These are pretty clever.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like a SNL skit.

It's kind of funny, but I wonder if it's actually good advertising for them. It kind of cheapens what they are trying to do in the world.

eeehm... the water-guns were photoshoped in AI posters :D

[edgar-suit.livejournal.com]

Yeah, not sure how I feel about pictures of people threatening (and probably later killing) other people with guns... turned into water pistols.

[merig00.livejournal.com]

now connect it to the AI slogan in the yellow box

[capthek.livejournal.com]

bad taste

[merig00.livejournal.com]

maybe... just a play on their slogan

I just found out that these are official AI posters: http://osocio.org/message/amnestys_flame_is_in_danger_worldwide/

[merig00.livejournal.com]

These are actually AI official promotion posters. I thought they were funny when I was thinking that someone photoshoped AI posters and inserted the waterguns.

This post has nothing to do with anything.

[yes-justice.livejournal.com]

Its literally the same joke over and over?

I could hang with that when I was like 3.

[merig00.livejournal.com]

I thought they were a joke when I posted them. But apparently these are official AI posters. mylaptopisevil posted the link to them somewhere in the comments.

[mylaptopisevil.livejournal.com]

it's an ad campaign. it would actually be less effective if it wasn't done in different iterations, because it would become too repetitive and become background noise.

So I guess when certain governments say that groups like Amnesty Intl are just used to further the western agenda, they are right 100%.
