Anon said “Perfect! I don’t get the original, though. What’s Chilondoscow supposed to be?” It means “China London Moscow” and it is an indication how convoluted ATT has become…. The BLF cut through all the mess and spells out reality nicely…

“this should have done along some major freeway in washington or even on k-street (this is a national campaign, I am sure they could have found a location). that way at least a couple of people who didn’t already agree with the implied statement could have been affected – perhaps even a couple of policymakers.or even do it across the street from a cnn office. you get the point ”

You jackass!!
I am supposed to spend two weeks of my wage to fly to Washington DC, scout a billboard site, hookup or somehow organize co-conspirators, and pull off the the deed while 3000 miles away from my shop, bed, refrigerator and Uhu glue stick so i can appeal to PEOPLE THAT MATTER LIKE $@#!! GOVERNMENT STOOGES or OBSOLETE MEDIA HACKS ??!!! I I think you have failed to grasp the concept of agitprop entirely. WE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT MATTER!! Screw the government creeps and the propaganda corporations. They are the f___ing enemy. Cranking the debate back into the realm ot the REAL and FREE, taking back the public space and prerogative that has been forfeited and stolen is up to us andf us alone. We are not gonna get help from Jesus, Bono, a dead Thomas Jefferson or anywhere else, and certainly not from the same bastards and class that are sinking the world into the violence, polluted desolation and Orwellian nightmare.

“- this could have been bigger. in terms of advertising, this is a fuckup. someone who should have spent another minute thinking about this dropped the ball.”

hey sure, it boils down to tactical savvy and being real about the mechanics and effectiveness of mass action. There is no greater delusion that the Politics of Conscience and symbolism – it isn’t abut maintiaining ethical purity or deniability or slumming with spraypaint on the weekends to make the week spent in humiliation and harness seem bearable.

But Hey! Consider that the message has even reached a jerk like you – the BLF has spent more time making their site, promoting coverage, distributing links, and documenting this one measly little and, – to my scratched and inkstained hands, – EASY billboard job.

Man, what was it that you called yourself? …an advertising “creative”?

….the nerve of some people calling themselves “creative”…

or even do it across the street from a cnn office. you get the point – this could have been bigger. in terms of advertising, this is a fuckup. someone who should have spent another minute thinking about this dropped the ball.

culture jamming without consideration for the audience is a wasted effort, much like an impractical fashion choice, and stroking of ones own ego at best.
