Racist Babies Have A Hilarious Temper Tantrum Over Inbred Joke
A bunch of racist assholes cried so many tears, you'd think someone kicked their puppy!
The Opinionated Ogre exists because of you. Please support the work you love with a paid subscription and I will continue to inform/amuse/outrage you for years to come.
If you’re not familiar with The Babylon Bee, they’re like The Onion but even less funny. Whereas The Onion has spent the last several years embracing its inner Brocialist and sinking into irrelevancy,1 The Babylon Bee started off nasty and kept going. It’s “satire” but for conservatives. The problem, of course, is that conservative satire consists mostly of punching down and being mean instead of funny or insightful.
Still, if you throw darts at the wall long enough, you occasionally hit the board and sometimes even land a bullseye! Accordingly, now and then, Bee puts out something about the left that’s actually kind of funny. It doesn’t redeem the rest of their trash, but it happens.2
Other times, they poke fun at the right with mixed results. Yesterday, though, they landed a bullseye:
As you may have noticed from the title of this article, this is not about the Bee skewering the “Master Race.” It was pretty goddamn funny. But not nearly as funny as the ongoing meltdown occurring in the comments.
Are you familiar with the phrase, “A hit dog will holler?” I can’t say for sure that it was coined in the 19th century for this exact Twitter thread but I can’t rule out the involvement of a time traveler marveling at the raging temper tantrum on display:
I haven’t seen this much butthurt since the Hemorrhoid Cream Convention of 2003. The outrage just oozes from the comments. It’s curious, though, the addition of the Nazi and Confederate flags makes it very clear that the inbred doofus is a hardcore white supremacist. He’s not supposed to be an “everyman” white guy. He’s not even a caricature of white people in general, just a very specific subset that 99% of all racists will swear on a stack of Bibles that they aren’t a part of. And yet…outrage:
I’ll bet you money that if I asked any one of those people if they’re a eugenicist, a Nazi, or even just a white supremacist, they would be offended. But they sure do seem to be awfully mad someone is making fun of them…
This brings a little Shakespeare to mind, “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” The modern equivalent being, “The motherfuckers can’t stop telling on themselves.”
But those are the people trying really hard not to come off as the white trash they so clearly are. Then there’s the rest. The ones who are quite proud of being trash.
A full third of the comments are about, what else? “The Jews.” Always with the fucking hatred of Jews:
There are dozens of comments about Jews on a post that doesn’t mention Jews at all. The seething hate just oozes from the screen. I know, you’re shocked. How could a right-wing humor site that regularly pushes hate attract an audience of bigots and racists? It’s a mystery we may never solve…
Anyway, the important part of all of this is to sit back and watch a bunch of truly horrible people cry bitter tears because someone said something mean (but not entirely inaccurate). These would be the same people who have made “making libs cry” the central theme of their existence. The fact that one of their own is the source of their suffering just makes it that much more delicious.
Enjoy!
The Onion used to be funny but after Bernie lost in 2016, the writers never got over it. Oh well.
The Babylon Bee was kicked off of Twitter back in March of 2022 for being transphobic assholes. Musk, being a transphobic asshole himself, was very excited to welcome them back on as soon as he took over.
The one I find funniest is the guy who claimed the most inbred people were Icelanders, Muslims & Jews.
1. did an Icelander beat him up in a bar one time?
2. Islam is a GLOBAL religion covering every race and ethnicity - you'd be closer arguing that the Amish were inbred instead of the religion found everywhere in the northern hemisphere and a damn large portion of the southern.
3. Jews - see Muslims.
Thank you for reading the Bee so the rest of us don't have to.
There ain’t nobody who can out snowflake a white supremacist.
