Could It Be Time To Deny White Men The Franchise'

Has Stephen Crowder struck again and trolled everyone?

No. Sadly, the article is for real, as real as the testicles in “Shelley’s” pants.

Tried to find it's Twitter account but it's been deleted already, if it even existed. Not sure what to make of this one, if it's some kind of alt-right anti-SJW joke that HP SA was dumb enough to fall for or if it's actually something serious they paid for. Either way it's fairly fucked up and fails as both comedy or as a philosophical position.

Earlier this week, the gullible Huffington Post fell victim to a hoax article calling for white men to be stripped of their voting rights. The site became the subject of widespread derision and condemnation after HuffPost editors stood up to defend the article’s content.

But as was later revealed, the author submitted the piece to Huffington Post South Africa as a hoax, intending to prove a point about the outlet’s radical leftist stance. He did so under a fake persona masquerading as a feminist activist named “Shelly Garland.” He has since lost his job after being outed by the site.

Following its publication and subsequent retraction, the HuffPost identified the author behind the “Shelly Garland” persona as Marius Roodt, a researcher at South Africa’s Centre for Development and Enterprise. According to the site, the email address Roodt used to submit the piece was traced back to him. The site claims that his identity was further “confirmed with facial recognition technology,” as he digitally altered a picture of himself to look like a woman.

Roodt admitted his role in the hoax when confronted by HuffPost reporters and was forced to submit his resignation from his job at the CDE (the resignation was accepted). The organization stated: “This kind of activity contradicts everything we stand for, is completely contrary to CDE’s media policy and our ethos as an organization.”
