KarKarToon's Mission
More than just entertaining
you, KarKarToon.com attempts to put Egypt’s harsh REALITY into clear
perspective…. through simple but genuine humor.
Modern
day Middle Eastern media concentrates on portraying society in an illusionary
and fabricated…. yet tedious manner. They have built the tendency of basing their
“ever so typical” plots on dull mind-numbing issues that merely imitate each
other and hardly relate to the majority of society. Empty indifferent story
plots mixed with our strong inclination of stereotyping various social classes
(actually just high and low classes) make up today’s Arabic Movies, TV Series,
and TV Shows. How often is the plot filled with issues concerning “feuds within
and between families”, “the struggle to achieve social mobility“ ,“problems in
the work place”, “cheating spouses and marriage issues”? These plots are so
common and typical you can second guess what will happen without even watching.
These
themes may deal with some modern day problems and intrigue a few audiences,
however they overlook the simple citizen who struggles to meet his/her country’s
overwhelming but unnecessary burdens. We (the common citizens) have lived with
these burdens for so long that they have become implanted in us and our
society…. we blindly overlook them and have almost become desensitized. We know
they are there constantly haunting us on a daily basis but we are too helpless
to even think about finding a way around them. Are you still trying to recall
what exactly these burdens are? Can you recall a few things like overpopulation,
pollution, poverty, illiteracy, corruption, ineffective educational systems,
unproductive public service, lack of family planning, lack of free
thinking, lack of proper housing, ignorance, poor health care, extremism,
negative western influences, loss of pure culture/tradition, disrespecting women
and minorities, rude/improper public behavior, animal abuse, ineffective
workforce, and excessive overpricing. Yea remember them?
Hardly
does Arab media actually represent or discuss these simple yet common day-to-day
struggles and issues facing the average Middle Easterner. We at KarKarToon
believe the need for all citizens to WAKE UP and start realizing how each burden
is eating up our moral, health, intelligence and life. The best way to
portray these troubles, and at the same time get our point across,
is through comedy…And we have made it our MISSION to ignite a sense of awareness
and understanding. So next time you are looking at pictures, videos, jokes or
games.... please do more than just
laugh, think about how you can start making a change…
KarKar
Pictures aims to make fun of the many humorous mistakes that just
plain embarrass us to the rest of the world. Please send us any funny pictures
you have by submitting them to the KarKarPICS.
