    Well, so much for that campaign. Stress does do strange things to some people - but when drunk, the true personality shows through. Wanting to have 9 more kids with a situation of over-population is disgusting, too. If he's so worried about the damned kids, they better be talking about ADOPTING them and not squirting them out like their last name is freaking xerox.

    Why is it whenever one of these celebrities (or pseudo-celebrities) gets caught high on whatever and flipping out in public, the excuse is "oh he/she was suffering from exhaustion and is just trying to focus on getting better."

    Yeah, you just focus as hard as you can on not getting high and masturbating in public. Focus real hard.

      The fact that something like this isn't surprising should give us a royally huge hint.

    Instantly reminded of a conversation between myself, John Carlton and David Garfinkel in February.

    We did a live training webinar about sexual triggers in marketing and John was talking about how sexual repression is sort of like shaking up a coke bottle.... no matter how long you keep your thumb over the top, eventually it's all going to come squirting out all over the place - usually at the most inopportune moment.

    Social proof indeed.

    Weird.

      It looks like mental illness to me. It strikes people all over the human spectrum of beliefs, backgrounds, financial situations, etc. The timing of this episode is strange. Maybe the stress associated with the video triggered it? While I find many aspects of "Kony 2012" misleading, I wouldn't want to malign the producer over an illness, whether it be mental illness, diabetes, or whatever.

    The change has to start within the person... Looks like the bad side of him comes out when he's drunk like a freudian slip... If he can change --the world he wants to change, will change...

  • AFRICA - January 2006

    Childhood's End -
    For 19 years, Joseph Kony has been enslaving, torturing, raping, and murdering Ugandan children, many of whom have become soldiers for his "Lord's Resistance Army," going on to torture, rape, and kill other children. The author exposes the vicious insanity—and cynical politics—behind one of Africa's greatest nightmares.

    • KONY 2012 filmmaker Jason Russell diagnosed with psychosis, wife says:

      "The preliminary diagnosis he received is called brief reactive psychosis, an acute state brought on by extreme exhaustion, stress and dehydration. Though new to us, the doctors say this is a common experience given the great mental, emotional and physical shock his body has gone through in these last two weeks. Even for us, it's hard to understand the sudden transition from relative anonymity to worldwide attention - both raves and ridicules, in a matter of days," Danica Russell wrote.

      Simple fix. More sleep. Less Red Bull.

      Uh - he called his charity "invisible children"...when was your first clue of psychosis?
