Conservatives mock ‘Bring Back Our Girls’ hashtag

Hashtag diplomacy is utterly stupid. What it does do is allow the drooling liberals to think they are doing something. They are fighting for human rights. They tweeted a hashtag. Feeling like they are doing something is as good, or better, than actually doing something.

What do you mean I don't care! I sent out a tweet for you.

We aren't going to do anything. That's a fact. We might send unarmed negotiators but that's about it. There is no will in the military or in the public to embroil ourselves once again into someone else's fight. What we can do is "feel" like we are doing something. Raise awareness (in a world that mostly doesn't care anyway), of muslim atrocities, without actually calling them muslim atrocities because that would be culturally insensitive.

All the hashtag warriors can go around patting themselves on the back about how had they worked the hashtag. Maybe a new medal should be created.

1. #BringBackOurGirls

Those are Nigerian girls, not ours.

Another IGNORANT DittoTard mindlessly parroting their MessiahRushie.
The # started in Nigeria,

 

[Pogo]

AHA! You conservatives don't care about the girls... all you freaks care about is bashing Obama, and liberals in general.

Warmongering is conservatives answer to everything... typical dittoheads.

Sorry, which side is agitating for the US to "do something", jerkwad? Doing something means sending in the military. Unless you want to send Rachel Maddow and Nancy Pelosi and scare Boko Haram to death.

You're such a whining little bitch.

Send the military where warmonger?

Do reveal to us your attack strategy. How many American troops? Drones? Tanks? The Navy? The Marines? How about we send the NRA over there?

By George, I think you've got it. -- send the NRA to Nigeria with a camera crew. Have 'em show us all about what "good guys with guns" are good for. Just make sure they don't send pictures of the "collateral damage".

Why isnt Obama sending troops to Nigeria? Why doesnt he care about young girls?

AHAHAHA!!! See? The Republican answer is always to put boots on the ground. Everywhere for everything.

What do you propose? What is CC plan of action to bring the girls back? Lecture Boko Haram until they die of boredom? Shame them? C'mon, let's hear your brilliant plan for defeating terrorists without firing a shot.

The more people that are informed the better, agreed?

Dear kidrocks:

We do care about the girls. Enough not to lazily approach the issue via an idiotic twitter campaign. Terrorists respond to only one thing. Force. Not liberals with nerf bats.

You care nothing about the girls you racist twit!

 

[Yurt]

Oh yes, by all means, call your congressmen, that'll do it. How stupid can you conservatives get?

and twitter will? idiot.

Oh. The irony!

so nothing of substance as usual.....

go twitter this

 

[BlindBoo]

Anyone happen to know Boko Haram's twitter handle...?

Looks like the racist conservatives are out in force today.

Well if President Obama is opposed to Boko Haram, the Echo_Chambermaids obviously must support them.

You're kidding me, right? How will informing people, assuming they give a shit anyway, make things better for the girls?
Oh, you mean for your self-esteem. Yes, a campaign to inform people will definitely bolster your self esteem, making you into a person who cares about others suffering, a warm and sensitive type. It wont do jack shit for the girls, of course. But you could give a fuck about them.

 

[Antares]

Whoa wait a minute. Are you saying hashtags dont free hostages?

Even if its just a way to feel good while bringing attention to the issue why is that a bad thing again?

It is not a BAD thing, it is a STUPID thing.
It is pointless, we get it you touchy feely dipshits need to make yourselves "feel better" even is its by doing something meaningless.

Yeah, how dare someone raise awareness via social networks? No, the much more productive thing to do is be a part of the peanut gallery and complain about it.

That'll help

Sure thing, lets put one of your kids in that jungle and watch you twitter your little heart out.

Moron.

Do we know that he is? His SecState Hillary Clinton opposed labeling them as terrorists.

That's because it's stupid. Hash tags don't free hostages. Action does. The “Bring Back Our Girls” Internet campaign, if you can call it that, is just a way for politicians and Hollywood celebrities to feel good about themselves.

It's also a way of dissipating energy that could have been constructive elsewhere. Kind of like a political heat sink -- it dissipates and dissolves, no muss no fuss. As George Carlin noted in the past, we used to simply "declare war" on issues -- "War on Drugs, War on Poverty, War on Crime --- we don't do anything about it, we just declare war on it."

Now we don't even do that -- we tweet, preferably before the light turns green for the mall where we're going for what really matters -- that new iPad.

I always say, "if a wrecker is for wrecks, what's Twitter for?"

Spare us your elitist bullshit. Thanks.

They just don't get it at Fox News... do they?

Conservatives mock 'Bring Back Our Girls' hashtag | MSNBC

Fox News contributors on Sunday scoffed at the “Bring Back Our Girls” hashtag recently created in support of finding the nearly 300 missing schoolgirls in Nigeria.

The international community has taken to Twitter using #BringBackOurGirls to encourage the release of the teenage girls. Boko Haram, a group of Islamist militants, attacked a school in Chibok nearly one month ago and kidnapped 276 individuals. Since, they took eight additional girls and threatened to “sell” them all on the market.

“I do not know how adults stand there facing a camera and say, ‘Bring Back Our Girls.’ Are these barbarians in the wilds of Nigeria supposed to check their Twitter accounts and say, ‘Uh-oh Michelle Obama is very cross with us, we better change our behavior?’” Will said on Fox News Sunday.

Just like MSNBC you take it out of context. He is stated that more should be done and simple hashtags aren't doing anything but giving the meaningless hashtag author a warm fuzz. He is 100%, do you really think a Muslim terrorist group is going to be moved to return these girls by a symbolic move? What is the point of it?

Its the only thing that would work. Unless the Nigerian government is willing to give up its Boko Haram prisioners.

I agree you are a drooling moron with no idea what the fuck you're talking about, and no capacity to figure it out for yourself.

Exactly! Nothing of substance from you elitist conservatives shitheads except bitching and moaning!

 

[BlindBoo]

Just follow the oil & money peeps. Lots of oil in Nigeria. And we want in. This could be the way we get our Troops in there. This whole thing is very likely a scam. I'm just not buying it. The Boogeyman propaganda has been too forced. It looks too much like our Government is setting something up. So definitely stay tuned.

Chevron, Conoco Philips, ExxonMobil, Shell are already in Nigeria. You need a new tin foil beenie there buddy.

Ironic.
The Lef offers nothing but symbols and talk. What is their plan for doing something that might actually bring the girls back?
