Tar Sands commercial
This tar sands ad just leaves me utterly speechless:
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.  )

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".
