Holocaust humor

Common card · No. 485668

There are several major aspects of humor related to the Holocaust: humor of the Jews in Nazi Germany and in Nazi concentration and extermination camps, a specific kind of "gallows humor"; German humor on the subject during the Nazi era, and the appropriateness of antisemitic or off-color humor in the modern era. Although in some contexts it can be accepted by the social surroundings, it is a very risky choice of humor.
