Viral video shows suspended professor’s profane rant: ‘You people are just vectors of disease to me’ — so ‘keep your f***ing distance’
A tenured history professor at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan, has been suspended after he issued profane remarks to students via a video conferencing session, Inside Higher Ed reports.
Professor Barry Mehler, age 74 — wearing space helmet-styled getup covering a face mask — was seen during a semester introduction video saying that he wouldn’t kowtow to a “c**k sucker of an administrator” trying to tell him how to teach his classes.
“I’m a f***ing tenured professor,” he said. “So if you want to go complain to your dean, f*** you. Go ahead. I’m retiring at the end of this year, and I couldn’t give a flying f*** any longer.”
After he took the face coverings off, he jokingly introduced himself as an alien visiting earth and noting that the “intergalactic internet is all abuzz about this planet,” where suffering is said to be “through the roof.”
“I don’t know whether you people have noticed, but it’s dangerous to breathe air,” he said. “Many of your experts are advising wearing masks because there’s a deadly virus spreading around the planet. Your civilization is collapsing and life on your planet is going extinct.” – READ MORE
