Students & parents complained and he was out of a job.
Same time the teacher himself was of Jewish descent and lost relatives in the Holocaust.
Was this the right thing to do?
Or were there other issues the teacher was dealing with?
Such as the burden of carrying around a personal legacy of his family's heritage?

The teacher made an honest mistake and shouldn't have been terminated.
Agree. From what we read, he's no vile nazi sympathizer .... simply accidentally put himself in an awkward position and goofed in getting out of it
We are in a very delicate and screwed up world of late where almost anything can set off "judgement"
Meanwhile a kindergarten in China hires a pole dancer.

^^ Who in turn are financed by jewish bankers who hate children ... seems you have not been listening to the words of wisdom we see here - or you would have known that
Meantime and In Between time:
Amazing how a nazi is fluent in Jewish speak. WTF is that all about? (he's always using it assuming he's not faking it)
Is there something he's not telling us? :wink:
Maybe some day he will give me lessons so I can understand what he is saying
Meantime. I hope he will keep it in English so I will know what he is saying

It must not have been a public school. It's really hard to fire public school teachers.

The internet is full of Jewish catchphrases, the majority of which are poking fun at their perpetual victim mentality.
Surely your Jewish grandparents taught you a bit of Hebrew? ac_dunno

That's true.
These days, its cool to be offended.
You get attention, which so many people are deprived of in their menial lives.

Could be, but that teacher was raising his arm, and not making a fascist salute.
Of course. Any provocation to enable outrage is OK.
An outstretched arm, a quasi swastika symbol, a Make America Great Again hat...
Oddly, Che Guevara T shirts, hammer and sickle emblems and Marxist slogans don't seem to cause the same effect.
Strange, that.
leftards have made everyone ultrasensitive about anything that could even possibly be conceived as racism por nazzism. (except racism against whites and sometimes Asians, which is considered a virtue)
This person with Jewish ancestry gets fired for a Hitler salute that he didn't even mean. While Sarah Jeong gets hired by the RACIST New York Times because she called for whites to wiped out, Disgusting and ridiculous.
I feel sorry for the guy.
I think he is/was suffering from some form of 'genealogical PTSD'.
That is, crimes/atrocities committed against his relatives he had never fully distanced himself from.
So their pain and humiliation, he carries around with him.
That's why I think it came blurting out like that.
Wasn't his fault. It's a akin to a Tourette's kid suddenly shouting out obscenities and swear words unexpectedly in public.
He's just a victim of circumstance in a time of history he was not responsible or even born into.
But clearly, it has affected him psychologically.
I've met Jewish families & mere mention of the holocaust have clearly scarred their psyches forever.
Jokes about the matter - forbidden.

yep 6 million jews were killed. Communists killed up to an estimated 100 million people. Advocating nazism is reviled while advocating communism for the most part is just fine. It utterly crazy and out of all proportion to reality.

Fella, 6 million Jews were not killed, even the Concentration Camp memorial plaques have been amended several times so that the number could be reduced.

I get that, and I agree with the sentiment expressed in his post, it just irritates me when people parrot the 6 million figure when it's absolute nonsense.
Yeah. I think we get that.

That's too harsh Seoul..
He's just a late bloomer..
It's a phase he'll eventually grow out of.
Drug abusing? I dabble in a bit of cocaine on a weekend every now and then, so fucking what? I'd hardly call that being a drug abuser....
It sure as hell beats being a boring, uptight prude with hilarious delusions of grandeur like a certain cock-less Korean on here. Watching his girlfriend get barebacked by black men and reading a library book is about as exciting as his weekends get.

Drugs, uneducated, underemployed, and a shiftless gamer. Your beloved fuehrer would have given you a one way train ticket to Dachau.
If I'm so 'uneducated' why is my spelling, grammar and punctuation at such a high level? As for my line of work, not everyone is career-minded and wishes to toil in the dog eat dog world of the rat race. Your constant belittling of the working class just further exposes you as a pompous, high falutin tosser.
So playing video games is a no no too according to you? Does that logic stretch to Bricktop and Blazor aswell? Or, as I suspect, is it just me who apparently should feel shame for playing video games in my spare time?
It's probably best not to dwell on what you get upto on your days off. :laugh3:
