This is so maddening. The instructor asks the kids to produce a funny video for extra credit and one student does an OUTSTANDING job using the Hitler / Downfall parody approach. His / her work is very well done (especially if you have some basic accounting knowledge). But one or a few snowflakes were offended and reported the teacher.

I can't believe UMASS sacked the teacher. As usual, liberals have ZERO sense of humor. I hope she is able to sue or the kids band together to get her re-instated.

Click the pic below to go see the Accounting 221 video. It's worth watching!

There must be a hundred different parody videos of this. The first one I saw, Hitler was upset about his kitchen remodel and not getting the stainless steel appliances he wanted.

Liberals are always upset that other people are actually having a good time...................

There are probably hundreds of parodies using this clip. If these snowflakes (students and administration) haven’t seen any of them, they’ve been living under a rock and need to get out in the real world.

The administrators are afraid of the students. Not surprising. They are bureaucrats.

[NohSpinZone]

“Untergang” is waaaaaaaaaaay more famous because of these parody videos than as the movie, which is excellent.

I wonder how the producer feels about that?

As a lifelong resident of the Gay State my favorite Downfall parody is the one where Scott Brown was elected to fill the Senate seat that Ted Kennedy had scammed for about 50 years.

It’s very well executed. Good to see there’s no shortage of young a-holes at Amherst to be offended by this video

[Chainmail]

Actually pretty funny - wonder who got triggered?
Hope the teacher gets a better job out of this..

[Sans-Culotte]

I'll take your word for it. I've seen too many Downfall parodies (mostly on this site) and don't think I can watch another.

The univeristy is full of it.

I hope this prof gets hired immediately somewhere.

[the OlLine Rebel]

I’m confused.

The video was ACTUALLY from 2009 (ostensibly from her class), yet only now is she getting fired for showing an old video? I’d think only 2019 videos were being shown....

Poor widdo snowfwakes.......

[ifinnegan]

Boring video.

Huge overreaction on part of the administration. Lecturers are not tenured, totally at will.

Still no reason to fire her over this. They could simply say don’t show any Hitler parodies anymore, if they truly thought it was risky for the school or wrong. Or, they could say don’t show any parodies anymore.

Maybe they just want to hire someone cheaper, i.e. newer.

The funniest one was Hitler lost his health insurance under Obama and the new plans only in network doctor was Mengele.

[doug from upland]

I wonder if it was this one that mocks the Muzzies and Haj.

Hitler is Obi-Wan Kenobi! (Alec Guinness) in Hitler: The Last Ten Days.

[bigbob]

Definitely support! Sick of those lame boring damn parodies! 2nd offense should be the electric chair.

[Grimmy]

The admins that pandered to these idiots should be arrested, tried and convicted of contributing to the delinquency of dumba**es.

Democrats are evil scum.
