I think it was just couple well-intentioned globe hopping white guys who found out about some stuff going on in Uganda that no one is the US really knew about. They come back, and start making this their "thing" and it becomes fucking huge.
But I think they then found themselves unable to manage this huge movement they created, and they found that the issue they had gotten into was a lot more complex than LRA bad let's just catch Kony. And so it just became super stressful, the Invisible Children people were not prepared to handle how big their movement got, and now they were dealing with navigating the US government and navigating relations between countries, and it all became to stressful and the guy just had a bit of a breakdown due to all the stress.
So it was just a bunch of well-intentioned white libs who took on more than they could handle, dived into an issue without fully understanding it, then found themselves at the forefront of that issue leading a whole movement, and just couldn't take the stress and so then the guy finds himself having a breakdown in public which included public masturbation.
The fascists won WW2, just not the German ones
