Here’s a fun little challenge! See how many antisemitic buzzwords used by the literal Nazis you can find in this denunciation of Jewish humor from our old pal, racist, woman-hating fantasy author Theodore “Vox Day” Beale!
What passes for Jewish so-called humor isn’t funny at all. I’ve never found Mel Brooks, Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David, Sarah Silverman, Adam Sandler, Gene Wilder, or Lenny Bruce to be even modestly amusing. Jewish “humor” is nothing more than a degenerate combination of whining, moral and cultural transgressivism, narcissistic posturing, and sexual obsession. It’s so relentlessly stupid that it is borderline retarded. …
The reason that comedy is dying is because it was taken over by subversives, and subversives are intrinsically parasitical in nature. They can’t build, create, or even sustain anything on their own. It’s like trying to maintain the financial sector on the basis of nothing except finance.
I found “degenerate,” “parasitical” and “finance.” Did I miss any? How many did you find?

Hasn’t comedy traditionally been subversive?
Does serious skepticism about the transformation of the American economy into a shell game of financial speculation make me anti-Semitic? Look at the ongoing retail apocalypse…in almost every case, it is private equity firms swooping in, extracting fees, loading the shell up with debt, then looting and liquidating.
The rest of Vox Day’s bullshit is just that. Antisemitic bullshit. It is not anti-Semitic, however, to be extremely skeptical of the Vampire Squid economy.
I may or may not want to know, but which comedians does he find funny?
You can include the sexual obsession thing. Nazis loved claiming Jews were sexual deviants IIRC.
Also, why the christ do all these scuzzballs change their names?
@Alexis Filth
Didn’t the Nazi’s use sexual torture a lot? Or am I thinking of something else?
Huh. The man has no taste. IMHO, Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies ever.
Sexual deviance and that very subtle reference to finance, as we’re all rolling in Jew Gold, you know. Narcissism, because we’re the Chosen People and thus think we’re superior to everyone else. Whining, especially for Jewish women, because Jewish women are supposed to be nagging, relentless bitches who are only interested in money and plastic surgery (see: narcissism). And not just parasitical, but the idea that Jews can’t create anything of our own, we just steal and warp Teh Brilliance of White Western Males. Cultural transgression, because we pollute the racial and cultural purity of white society.
When you’ve been treated like a dog your whole life, you know how to hear those whistles, loud and clear.
And all this the day before Pesach starts, no less. What a gift Pox Day is, truly. Maybe he ought to be on the list of plagues for our seder this year…
Brian M:
While it’s quite right to be skeptical of finance, antisemites frequently believe that “the Jews” are in complete control of the financial sector and essentially run the world’s economy for our own benefit. For the record, we don’t; Haredei Jews in America (the ones who are most obviously Jewish to random passers-by) are among our nation’s poorest demographics.
Subversive
degenerate
so-called
target in “scare quotes”
transgressive
…
bingo!
Also the Inquisition number from The History of the World Part I.
There’s sort of a weak stereotype of Jewish women as lustful temptresses, so maybe “sexual obsession” qualifies. Also “subversives” as a noun.
I think that’s it. Vox is becoming a boring tryhard. I think he misses his glory days as a Hugo-Award-wrecker.
He’s degenerating in a certain sense. The Alt-Right people see a very short timeline for their ideas to be implemented. They kind of know their window of time is small, and that causes a lot of mental strain in my opinion.
Probably Dennis Miller or something.
I’m more of a Young Frankenstein person, myself.
Omg but SPACEBALLS and men in tights!!!!!
I need to rewatch high an….xiety! Again. I’m not a huge hitchcock fan, so i think i just didn’t get it.
Also, i would like to rewatch silent movie.
Oh and i did love To Be Or Not To Be.
And the wedding singer from adam sandler, though i’m sure there will be bits that i rewatch and go ‘ummmmmm’???
Also, Gene Wilder?? Really??
That’s another of my favourites. 🙂
The evil jewish comedians are bankrupting the comedy sector. We need a stimulus package stat says Vox Day.
Whenever I’m depressed, I read Vox Day to remind myself how powerful we Jews are. But to all those world controlling Jews, where is my part of the action?!
Is it just me, or are Sandler and Sliverman the only vaguely current figures on that list? Half those comedians are dead, and the other half peaked 15-30 years ago. This is a chronic thing with nazis, whenever they rail against the supposed evils of the media, the media in question is wildly out of date.
As long as sentences like this exist, comedy will never die.
I’m guessing Carrot Top, Dane Cook, and “Man Getting Hit In Crotch With Football”.
Put me down for ten bucks on Andrew Dice Clay.
There’s no open thread, so I’ll throw this request for elucidation here. I was reading an interview with Chloë Grace Moretz in which there’s mention of
I’m not always very good at working out how ridiculous gendered “jokes” work, and I’m not quire managing to parse this one, in that I don’t quite get the link between the “prank” and her reaction. Do the cutlets somehow imply that her breasts are as flat as they are? If so, how are you supposed to reach that interpretation? I mean, how do you make the leap from cutlets to breasts? Or do we have to assume there was some context, with people telling her she was small-chested often enough that the cutlets were clearly referring to that?
Seriously, I’m too baffled to even work up the energy to be outraged at someone doing that to a 16-year-old (or anyone). Assuming I’m interpreting it right, I don’t know what’s worse — that someone came up with such a bizarre idea of a prank or the fact it was successful.
@Rabid Rabbit
Cutlets are an informal way of referring to soft, removable breast “implants” that you can put on for a more ample bosom.
I don’t know if Vox considers himself part of it, but he has a number of writing friends who call themselves the “superversive movement” in opposition to all the subversion they think is ruining fiction. They’ve written a lot of articles on what that means (mostly right-wing, religious, anti-feminist, square-jawed heroics), but the media they claim is superversive reaches a point where it’s just “this is what I like.” I mean, I’ve seen someone on Vox’s Castalia Press claim Netflix’s A Series of Unfortunate Events program is superversive when the books were all about subverting children’s literature.
All the superverse guys tend to sound like this, although they usually try not to sound this antisemetic.
@Fujimoto
I guess writing actual books that are better than the ones they’re complaining about is too hard, or something.
@Rabid Rabbit
Cutlets (or chicken fillets) is the term for bra inserts to make your boobs look bigger. So someone left fake tits in her trailer, hence considering implants.
