Re: they are lifting against the stable now, won't cover candles later



Title: rethink the cool
Adbusters
CampaignsMagazineCreative ResistanceOrders Information




This is a ground-breaking marketing scheme to uncool Nike. If it succeeds, it will set a precedent that will revolutionize capitalism.








For years, Nike was the undisputed champion of logo culture, its swoosh an instant symbol of global cool. Today, Phil Knight's Nike is a fading empire, badly hurt by years of "brand damage" as activists and culture jammers fought back against mindfuck marketing and dirty sweatshop labor.

Now a final challenge. We take on Phil at his own game - and win. We turn the shoes we wear into a counterbranding game. The swoosh versus the anti-swoosh. Which side are you on?

Adbusters has been doing R&D for more than a year, and guess what? Making a shoe - a good shoe - isn't exactly rocket science. With a network of supporters, we're getting ready to launch the blackSpot sneaker, the world's first grassroots anti-brand. You can help launch the blackSpot revolution.

THE BIG QUESTION:
Is it possible to take Phil Knight's billion-dollar marketing momentum and, in a quick judo-like move, slap him onto the mat with the power of his own PR thrust?

You see we are not responsible for other people?s deeds, as far as I am concerned I honestly don?t understand why and how people can have an unlawful relationship and I don?t think I will ever understand it either. But the way it looks like average person is far too ahead of me in thinking and accepting such things. We are only responsible for ourselves so don?t let any event around you effect your life, mind and thoughts, life is a fight and test to prove that you really care about God. One may ask why do bad guys do this to religious people, well it has many disadvantages, once a person?s shame is gone there is a higher chance of they doing the same thing again. Once shame is gone, talking about such things, cheating and thinking about
