"Kaedus, My turn "sweety!" Are you inferring that because it has become fashionable to make these kinds of videos that it is right to present one on a business site? I don't give a shit what is posted on someone's blog or on Youtube or on the internet. There are beheading videos of American soldiers on the internet, any sick piece of garbage can post what they want. I think, though I don't want to speak for others, that the main problem was the context and form in which this was placed. Yoni left a comment that he is not in favor of censorship. I would have expected that the owner of this site would have at least joined the discussion to at least defend the fact that this was posted and is still here. Thank you Duncan for being the only person at BizSugar to express your opinion. You have my RESPECT! Kaedus, you know many people who were affected by this? So do I. I'm going to visit my grandmother in a nursing home in Ra'anana on Thursday where at least 25% of the residents have a serial number tattoo on their forearms. Victims of a fad???? Wonderful, a fucking Hitler fad!!!! Rivkah"Hitler Finds Out About Blogging [VIDEO]
"Kaedus, Did you catch this hysterical bit while in Ukraine? On September 26th 1941, the following notice was posted in the towns outside the ravine of Babi Yar, Ukraine: Kikes of the city of Kiev and vicinity! On Monday, September 29, you are to appear by 08:00 a.m. with your possessions, money, documents, valuables, and warm clothing at Dorogozhitskaya Street, next to the Jewish cemetery. Failure to appear is punishable by death.' One after the other, they had to remove their luggage, then their coats, shoes, and overgarments and also underwear … Once undressed, they were led into the ravine which was about 150 meters long and 30 meters wide and a good 15 meters deep … When they reached the bottom of the ravine they were seized by members of the Schutzpolizei and made to lie down on top of Jews who had already been shot, many of whom were still in their death-throes … The corpses were literally in layers, stached like cord-wood. SS marksmen came along and shot each Jew in the neck with a submachine gun … I saw these marksmen stand on layers of corpses and shoot one after the other … The marksman would walk across the bodies of the executed Jews to the next Jew, who had meanwhile lain down, and shoot him. 100,000 Jews and Soviet POWs were executed over the span of 36 hours, the SS troops only stopping their firing when the barrels of their machine-guns became so hot they could no longer hold them. Ukrianian citizens showed up in masses, bringing picnic lunches. Witnesses who later testified at subsequent war-crimes trials descibed the atmosphere as carnival-like and festive. And you wonder why any image of Hitler upsets me?"Hitler Finds Out About Blogging [VIDEO]
"Anita, I personally am offended that you say this video uses humor to make a point about business. Can you please offer me one single piece of redeeming value that this video has. And no, the fact that it is on You tube does not justify it appearing on what is supposed to be a professional business site. Rivkah"Hitler Finds Out About Blogging [VIDEO]
"Anita, I also ask if during the next convention or awards ceremony that BizSugar attends if you would please present this video as an example of business related relevency. I think BizSugar is a great site with many virtues but I think this is a black eye for the site. I disagree with my husband, there is a time and a place for cencorship, I belive here it is called moderation. I still can't believe this was allowed on the site.

"Kaedus, You might be able to tell from my other comments that the use of the word "hysterical" was used in irony. I grew up looking at old photo albums. They contained many black and white family photos of relatives in Poland and Russia. When I would ask my mother about 90% of the people in the photos she would say "we never heard from them again" and she would cry. They simply disappeared. Were they shot outright? Gassed? No one ever knew. The fact that they were murdered is beyond dispute. Just another reason why I am inscensed that this assinine article was allowed to be posted here darling!

"I too bid bizsugar a fond farewell and I say that with my heart. It is a great site and presents many opportunities to people. That said, I still have not read any justification for this video to have been allowed here. Not that people have not tried to justify it. I just think the reasons don't work. It's not educational. It in no way provides instruction on dubbing a video. It offers no tips or advice. It's just a "humourous" video (said sarcastically) which uses the biggest mass-murdererer in history to try and evoke some chuckles. I'm not laughing. I'm also glad that my husband who has been a very active member here for over a year sees my reasoning now about censorship. There is a time for it. Why the hell would the administrators allow something which had the capacity to cause pain to members and readers? I just don't know. I am glad for the opportunity of Bizsugar. I've posted a few articles here and given my support to the members in the form of over 1000 votes and hundreds of comments. It is a community. But as in any other community in life, if the community doesn't fit, it is time to explore other communities. If I were to walk into a party and saw someone dressed in a nazi uniform for the purpose of humour I would get up and leave. If they were my friends I would most likely look for new friends. I say a fond farewell to all of the members at Bizsugar and wish you success and luck. Rivkah "Hitler Finds Out About Blogging [VIDEO]
"TJ, I myself am still in limbo. It was mentioned in one of the comments about an apology. I am not looking for an apology. I don't think anybody needs to apologize. What I am still looking for, waiting for, is some justification or rationalization as to why this was given the green light to appear here. If that were to occur, I would throw my hands up in surrender and come back. I still haven't seen any rationale though. Freedom of speech just doesn't work. If that were the case I could post a video of Anita and dub it saying things about advocating prostitution, crack cocaine use or racism. All I would have to do is include something about marketing, blogging or twitter. No disrespect Anita, it is just an example. I agree with another of the comments. There are 175,000 members here and nobody will miss a few. Whether or not I or Yoni or any of the others are here or not in two weeks will be irrelevant. New members will come, others will leave. It will all be forgotten in a blur. I don't want to be treated like a special case. I don't feel that anything is owed to me in entitlement for expressing my outrage so vocally. The issue is not entirely about Hitler. All I am waiting for, as I believe most here are, is a GOOD reason as to why this video was published here. Were that to happen, I would be back voting, commenting, and supporting others here within minutes. Rivkah"Subscribe

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hit the vote button. If Hitler and Mengele and Eichmann wouldn't have murdered half of my family, and my husband's I might have a different outlook. I'm not sure Hitler is ever anything less than a tasteless use. Rivkah "
