It's entirely relevant. Don't get pissy that you were fooled, it happens. But for shits sake read the quote in the OP, its extremely obvious after a few sentences it's fake. Not to mention the name of the fricking site has the word "schtick" in it.

That "most folks" are dumbasses.
The comments on the original article are hilarious. Some of the old fools (or perhaps pranksters pretending to be gullible) are calling for the students to be expelled, bemoaning that this is what LSU is teaching, etc. Good lawd.

I don't know what's funnier, people really being fooled by it. Or people pretending to be fooled by it fooling the people that aren't fooled by it.

Yep. I'm not laughing at OP. It wouldn't surprise me if some shite like that was an 'issue' these days.

Buchanan-Riley maintains that if university officials don’t comply with the group’s demands, it has raised enough funds to purchase several gallons of Roundup weed killer and its members are “more than willing” to take matters into their own hands.
Are the Alabama transplants?

If this is the Red Schtick article it's fake.

Confederate jasmine is also known as Star Jasmine. I think only southern white supremacists call it Confederate jamsine.

My retard of a sister (you don't want pics) fell for it. She was throwing a fit about it on the Facebook earlier.

You do know that you are partially judged by women on your sister's looks.
How about pictures of y'all's mom?

I can't even tell whats satire in today's fricking world

You should have quoted the rest of the article
quote:
Meanwhile, Kappa Alpha fraternity President Kyle Hamilton calls the group’s demands “ridiculous” and its claims regarding the plant’s symbolism “outrageous.”
“Lots of us here in the South grew up around Confederate jasmine,” Hamilton insists. “It’s part of our heritage. There’s nothing hateful about it.”
Hamilton says he’s mystified by Buchanan-Riley and her group’s vehement opposition to a blooming plant.
“I’m surprised a bunch of tree-hugging hippies could hate an innocent, greenhouse-gas-eating plant,” Hamilton quips. “I guess they’re all about flower power, so long as it’s not white flower power.”
In addition to being a popular ornamental vine and groundcover in the southeastern United States, Hamilton says Confederate jasmine offers more than just pretty flowers and a pleasant fragrance.
“Confederate jasmine helps choke out less-desirable plants and keeps them from getting out of control. It keeps inferior species in their place,” he says. “We need to fight to preserve the pure, white flower of the Confederate jasmine, or else undesirables like the deadly nightshade or wandering Jew will rise up and destroy all we have worked to build.”

At the time of my post, there was no link to the article. Let's just say that I had a hunch.

quote: What is sad is you really can't tell. Agreed. I'm hardly ever surprised by the level of attention seeking, self-pitying cries of 'oppression' that get tossed around these days.
Can't be that you're not the sharpest tool. Gotta be the liberals.
