Surprised

I'm surprised that this isn't blocked. Superior1 09:12, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

And I'm surprised that you're surprised. Legitimate article. 130.85.149.114 15:44, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

STFU!!!!!!!!!!

Clever vandalism?

Anyone notice the repeated use of the acronym 'STFU' in the last three paragraphs? Their placement is formatted such that it appears at the beginning of each line (unfortunately, blockquoting would fail to perserve this):

STFU was one of few unions in the 1930s that was open to all races. Promoting not only nonviolent protest for their fair share of the AAA money, the STFU also promoted the idea that blacks and whites can work efficiently together. Because these ideas were highly controversial at the time, the STFU met with harsh resistance from the landowners and local public officials and STFU leaders were often harassed and ignored.

I don't see your point. 67.162.10.70 01:28, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Is this a joke?

STFU? you are kiding me right? This article is defilently fake and just put up by some World of Warcraft fananic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.185.41.21 (talk) 04:24, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• This is a real union set up in the Great Depression, and that is the acronym for it. It is not vandalism...76.104.254.127 (talk) 06:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Yes indeed. I saw it in my 10th-grade history book. Granted, I loled when I saw it, but it's in there: Alan Brinkley's American History - A Survey. Lockesdonkey (talk) 23:36, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

It's real. In my AP US History book. Tyler John (talk) 02:25, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Update sources
