Buy Canadian Tar Sands | Adbusters Culturejammer Headquarters I thought it is a hoax but all I found pointed to that this is a real ad sent on real TV. WTF is wrong with these people?!? What is "ethical" about this: ![]()

And apparently all the ecosystems that are destroyed and people who are sickened is ethical?
![]() The answer to Saudi oppression is another Arab Spring, not tearing up our ecosystem. (Or, you know, alternative fuels. )

Yes, but it's called "theft", is a felony and is generally frowned upon.
Semi-seriously though, I once saw someone come up with a way to ACTUALLY donate a negative amount to a televangelist, but I never bothered to do it. |

It's called politics.
They use an universally negative theme, the oppression of women in this instance, and then use it as a leverage to further their own goals. Just like people who try to censor the internet by saying they are going after "child pornography".
