Maybe not but his post was dumb. If he didn't know about the topic, his post should've consisted of "what's this about" instead of whatever tangent he was on.

I believe the tangent he was on (unless I am mistaken) was that the fraternities portrayed in this movie are a bastardization of the original fraternity in every form. If one was to provide any defense of greek life, they would state this as well.

So is elephant walking in line with the original fraternity in every form?

...Where does that come from? Why was this asked?

I've asked multiple times about different BGLO stuff and no one seems to answer. The only reason that many blacks are only a little ignorant is because white society pervades black society. Then black members try to portray whites as racist and ignorant purely because we don't know every facet of their minimally important (to our daily life) culture.

edit: Example of not being answered, see: "APhiA B-Day thread"

When people say certain practices contrast the original purpose of fraternities, I wonder where they get their notion of "original purpose" from.

Do you know what the fraternity practice of elephant walking is? If you do know what it is, is that in line with the original purpose of fraternities?

What does his SN have anything to do with it?

....and some of you people need to get a clue. Many of us have asked questions about Black greek life that go completely ignored. Usually the response is something like "if you aren't in one you don't need to know." Ignorance take on quite a negative connotation. Even know they share the same definition.....I think there is a difference between being ignorant and unimformed. Ignorant makes you come across like an idiot.
