Rethink the Cool + the Shoe

phil knight had a dream. he'd sell shoes. he'd sell dreams.
he'd get rich. he'd use sweatshops if he had to.

then along came a new shoe. plain. simple. cheap. fair.
designed for only one thing: kicking phil's ass.

the unswoosher


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?

OUR KICK-ASS MARKETING STRATEGY >> http://blackspotsneaker.org/02/

Make a straight donation... it's a worthy cause
with the potential to set an historic precedent
that could be repeated in other industries and
usher in more grass roots version of capitalism
in which megacorps do not control every area of
our children's lives.

story. There are a few
other issues associated with it, we will let you know at the right time
the reason being "bad guys are reading all this too".

Iraq war has to go ahead one day or another these people who control
Muslim and Christian minds, bodies and lands will not leave with out
punting, otherwise it will hurt West and Islam equally, and you better
not be late about it. If any of your leader makes a bit of noise about
it, ask him where was he while Muslims were being raped, tortured and
killed by secret services and armies controlled by Jews. And don?t you
forget that many of them are sitting in your mosques and towns in
disguise. May God bring unbiased justice and truth to this world again.
May God free the minds of ordinary and give them the ability to be
unbiased, direct, honest and God fearing people. May God end the days of
bad guys soon.

X-Raying people and it?s abuse.

Assalam u?Alekum all,
Here is another one of those things invented by
bad guys to corrupt humanity. It is about having unlawful relationship
with people to find out what they know and think. Bad guys have used
this really well to exploite and destroy human character and values. It
is amazing that religious community have not spoken about it. What is
X-Ray, well x-ra
