Kalle Lasn

Kalle Lasn () (die 24 Martii 1942 natus Castri Danorum in Estonia) est Estonicus Canadensis cinematographus, scriptor, editor periodici, activista. Bello mundano secundo desinente, familia eius ex Estonia effugit et Lasn in campo profugorum Theodisco commoratus est. Septimum annum agens, in Australia cum familia iit, ubi scholam Canberrae frequentavit. Usque ad finem annorum 1960 illic mansit, quo tempore "market research company" Tokii instituit. Annibus autem 1970 Vancuverium in Columbia Britannica, Canada habitatum iit, ibique adhuc incolit. Viginti annos documentaria societati PBS et Officio Nationali Cinematographico Canadae fecit.

Lasn est conditor quoque periodici Adbusters, necnon societatis Adbusters Media Foundation, scilicet cui periodicum est, et scriptor librorum Culture Jam et Design Anarchy. Adbusters incepit postquam sensit aliquid valde mali consumerismo esse.

Libri et pelliculae

In primo libro suo, Culture Jam appellato, Lasn decertat consumerismum malum societati esse. "Memorum bellum" (Anglice meme war) arcessit, ut rationes societatis occidentis capitalismo consumeristico deerrent.

Secundo in libro, Design Anarchy, Lasn rogat ut graphic designers et pictores, inter alios, corporatis politicisque potestatibus non iam operentur.

Lasn documentaria viginti annos creavit, e quibus multa de Iaponia tractabant, quae est uxoris, Masako Tominaga, patria, ubique Lasn habitavit.Linda Solomon, “Adbusters' Kalle Lasn: the flawed genius behind Occupy Wall Street”, Vancouver Observer, October 12, 2011 Non nullae pelliculae eius sunt:

Activismus et iudicia
Lasn, per periodicum suum Adbusters, inter primos erat, qui manifestationem Occupy Wall Street (OWS) conciverint, sed ita cautus est, ne dominium manifestationum sibi vindicet. Lasn suasit ut tributum Robin Hood adhibeatur, ad manifestationis destinata attingenda. 

In Commentary, periodico neoconservativo, Alana Goodman criminata est Lasn antisemiticum esse, propter non nulla eius scripta. Anno 2004, Lasn commentarium "Why Won't Anyone Say They Are Jewish?" nomine scripsit, quo ostendit eos, qui ex aetatis Georgii W. Bush neoconservativis Iudaei essent. Alex Kane ex situ interretiali Mondoweiss Lasn defendit, quod Commentary res non accurate exposuerit, demonstrans conamen organizationibus neoconservativis quod ita collusorie factum sit, ut OWS, quod antisemitismo incitetur, dedecoretur, 
quam rem The New York Times non affirmavit veram esse.
