At last! Someone wants to get rid of the ugly plant!

Seriously, this may be a bit of an overkill to reach their goal (but I still hate mistletoe).

the most shocking thing about this thread is that people not in college care about student politics.

I'm not in France but I like to read about French politics. Mmmkay.

France politics have an effect on France and Europe.
Student politics don't even have an effect on most students.

What does this have to do with student politics?  Or do you mean no one should care about what ideological or philosophical beliefs university students have?  Because...disagreed, considering university students subsequently become, you know, the vast majority of decision-makers in America.

Given than 99% of students don't care or involve in student politics, it is irrelevent.

SJWs are awful, but most of the people whining about them are Alt-Right morons (Milo) who are just as bad.

In the end, both groups are stupid and should be ignored, but the internet lets them thrive.
Perhaps, but only one group is actively trying to silence people.  This is bad, and not hard to understand.....actually, apparently it is.  It shouldn't be.

Believe me, the "Alt-right" is trying to censor people as much as the other side. They are just more perfidious about it.

Not sure if anyone's posted this yet, but here's basically a compiled list of all the demands initiated by college groups:

http://www.thedemands.org/

*gags*

Awesome. I imagine there will be a lot of blatantly unconstitutional stuff in here.

     The sad thing is, the administration at my alma mater is already in the business of bending over backwards to meet the demands from our BSU, even though a bunch of them are most likely against state law and even though we are currently fighting a budget deficit that has necessitated cuts to numerous campus programs.

The reverse of my Canadian alma mater, with its totally insane rector (which is literally hated by every employee and student there, due to his tendency to cut corners with laws, to stack committees and by rejecting every idea that's not his).

A group of students got too active in demanding things, so he ban the group activities from university premises and tried to get the leader expelled. As he knew the committee responsible for expulsions wouldn't go for it, he ended all terms before their ends, only reappointed people agreeing with him, filled the other positions with people agreeing with him, filled some elected-teacher positions on that committee by appointment because of emergency and did not fill some teachers position and the support staff/student position as he could not find people agreeing with him on that position. And changed the committee date last minute without communicating so they couldn't defend themselves there. And so, it voted expulsion.

Obviously, courts threw out that farce, due to the sheer number of rules and laws they broke in the process.
