I got again a comment too often, I thought it was obvious especially after the last video, but apparently it isn’t: The Hitler was censored not bc of the Hitler but of Hitler and the Heil in Front of it, which you can’t say in 🇩🇪 bc this means you appreciate the Nazi Ideology, you can say the name Hitler in 🇩🇪 as much as you want, although people might stare at you if you run through the town, while screaming „Hitler“. And also of course in Educational or Artistic Context (eg Comedy) it’s allowed, but I did it for YT, an 🇺🇸 Company, to not get blocked.
My great grandparents on my dad’s side came to the US in 1910. My grandfather was first generation American and ended up fighting the Germans in WW2 in the Battle of the Bulge.
Yashar'al belongs to God. Jews belongs to satan. All major powers of ww2 attacked the jews(usa, England, Russia, Germany, japan, china). Same as the major powers of ww3 (Russia, China, USA [soon], Syria [soon]).
America is a mockery of nations & built up by monopoly men to ultimately fight & dominate Europe & the world through money/ finance, I wouldn’t put any merit in its morals whatsoever… as an American fond of European history, do not let anyone steal your identity or use your history to control you or make you feel guilty, the media does this even to American caucasians makes them feel extreme guilt for slavery.. Hollywood and western media have spent 100 years making a caricature of their perceived enemies which the common denominator is European ethnic groups. South Park while very funny at times is still centered around Kyle’s world view, as is mostly all shows, the Jewish character is the “moral compass” which of course was never a thought prior to ww2 in much of the world not just Germany.
hi chris I love your reactions!
„Pecker“ ist ein Euphemismus für „Penis“. Hühner schlagen wiederholt mit ihrem Schnabel auf den Boden, um Futter zu finden. Das nennt man picken. Ein Huhn trägt also keine Hosen, weil sein „Pecker“ auf dem Kopf ist.
I met this pretty Jewish girl at a German club once. I asked for her number, but she told me that they have names now.
I don't think you should be telling Holocaust jokes. I don't find them funny because my grandfather died in a concentration camp.
He fell from the watchtower.
Omg... 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Yikes that escalated quickly.. people are so unhinged wtf
Good one, you should tell her she should be a comedian, no offence.
There's the famous Robin Williams story that he was on a German talk show. He was asked why the Germans have a stereotype of having no sense of humor. He answered, maybe because you killed all of the funny people. The host, without any irony said No, that's not!
There's an old joke where in Heaven the cooks are French, the policemen are English, the mechanics are German, the lovers are Italian and the bankers are Swiss - whereas in Hell the cooks are English, the policemen are German, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss and the bankers are Italian.
😂
Now that’s funny. 🤣
Sounds like you need a trip to the Museum of Tolerance for that joke.
Italians being bad bankers is hilarious to me 😂😂 giving out loans based on passion and quality of pasta sauce made
American here; are the French poor engineers? The tower isn’t supposed to be leaning?
Are the Swiss prude and uptight?
This is very funny to imagine
Cartman: "Look a covetous jew!"
Chris: "What's wrong with that?"
😂😂😂
I can’t believe I laughed that was a pearl harbor
Covetous isn't the problem it is 2000 years of trying to destroy civilization. They got close with Christianity and the Dark Ages but trying again with Islam ,supply chain problems and Wokeness

South Park pushes the boundaries on every race, ethnicity, gender, religion, social issue and everything else you could possibly think of.
Except when they did the same thing to Scientology and then suddenly Isaac Hayes quit the show.. Because clearly he was completely okay with bashing everyone else's religion except his own...
@Eisenheim1191 according to his son scientologist quit on his behalf. He had suffered a stroke and was under there strict and exclusive care. He would later die from a second stroke while adhering to their treatment plan. Man was brainwashed to death.
Minus the prophet episode, where they chose to censor the ending.
Which is good when we can’t laugh at ourselves we are a bunch of assholes
@@notjustklownin9506 They didn't censor it, the network did.
I assure you we have German speakers here. The German spoken in the show is a parody of what the language sounds like to Americans who don't speak it.
Yep, Matt and Trey love to butcher languages and accents for the show. It’s especially funny what they have done with Japanese over the years.
Exactly! That's part of the joke.
For those who have been to Germany, and spent time there, the Germans actually do not sound like this, loud and stern, as depicted here. They sound nothing like Hitler when they speak. If you think otherwise, then you either haven't actually been to Germany, or you are working off of the stereotype as shown on this cartoon.
@@jaidenobrien This comment is exactly why this cartoon was made. South Park isn't a documentary, it's satire. I secretly hope your comment is also satire and not serious.
The classic example being how "They Took Our Jobs" continues to become more and more unintelligible over the course of an episode.
South park is a totally equal opportunity offender, every stereotype and all are made fun of equally and fairly. One and all.

@@FreeThePorgs are tobacco smokers made fun of? Because they definately went hard after anti-smokers years ago when I watched the show, but they blantly ignored things that didnt fit into their hot-take, like second-hand smoke. And they never offered the opposing viewpoints. To me, its more like they're libertarians and disagree with both major political parties who make up almost the entirety of decision makers in the US, so it just seems like everyone is a target, but when it comes to a head, the show is very pro-libertarian, personal choice
Well...almost. They never dared to make fun of the prophet from the Religion of Peace...even before Charlie Hebdo.

Back in 1998 I was speaking German in my German class. A German foreign exchange student started laughing and said I spoke like I was dutch.
I've often heard Canadians trying to speak or read Dutch and they always sound German to me.
@@frankdeboer1347 I think she said my Kentucky accent worked when I was speaking caused it.
We live in an area of Ohio with several Amish communities, and most of them speak "Pennsylvania Dutch" along with English. Apparently "Pennsylvania Dutch" is also referred to as "Pennsylvania German". Either way, I don't understand it! 😂
@@melissatuel862 It's a dialect of German, but when the English asked Pennsylvanian Germans what language they spoke, they'd say "deitsch", which sounds like "dutch". Now, the reason why we call Netherlanders dutch is because the language was categorized as "Low German" along with other northern German dialects back in the middle ages before a unified Germany, so they spoke and were "Deutsch". It really came full circle.
@melissatuel862 Pennsylfaanisch Deitsh is a mix of Plaatdeutsch, Nederlands (Dutch), Schweizerdeutsch, and American English.
If you don't know South Park these jokes are very tame compared to some of the others they've done
It's funny, with shows like this, Boondocks, Simpsons, Archie Bunker, Richard Pryor, Carlin, Blazing Saddles, ECT... that people get offended too easy!!!
Even the tolerance camp the kids were sent to in that same episode as the tolerance museum pushed the envelope a little more
Even the damn "rhinoplasty" in the background of the speech outside of the theater.
There's fucking LAYERS there.
To non-Germans joking about Hitler is casual while in Germany it can be considered the exact opposite of very tame.
These episodes were definitely tame.
I've got tears rolling down my cheeks at the literalness of a German guy pointing out that the exaggerated spoof comedic German language in a cartoon is not correct, and he can't understand it, with a puzzled/serious face hahahahahaha lol lol
PS- You should see what they do to Canadians 🤣🤣🤣
Or Barbara Streisand. 😧
Yeah I have always wondered if the intentionally bad way the South Park guys speak foreign accents would translate well as a joke to someone who actually spoke that language. Funny enough, the Japanese language is the other language done in the most exaggerated way by the South Park guys. Having this German guy (seems like a nice guy, btw) say with a straight face that the accent is bad is the best possible outcome for this joke to run.
lol You geniuses do realize that there's no country on earth more ridiculed and mocked than germany.
I love it how everyone including the guy in this video r trying hard to act like what south park is doing ere it's some type of anomaly.

Makes me think of this joke from 30 Rock ua-cam.com/video/UYEQh9IkVXU/v-deo.htmlsi=qqDgaWMtRFmyA8D-
That's like saying, "It IS snow. It's yellow snow." It may be true, but that's why nobody wants it.
@@-Nickname- Which would be like saying 'It IS a president, but it's Trump' ^^
Germans tend to have a very dark humour (much like the UK), but with our dedication to preserve our stance on that very special part our history we 'can't' promote it.
@@iwonttellmynametoamachine5422 The Trump analogy doesn't really work. Roughly 50% of the American population actually like Trump, but no one likes yellow snow. Except maybe a few freaks.
As a German that has acclimated to America. Germans are too stern. But we do get a bad name.
The opening statement is overboard, and what I dealt with when I was a child. Pajama day doesn't happen in the USA. We Germans killed it. :D
As an American with a dad from Slovakia whose parents own a second home in South Park, we appreciate you.
@@thomaslehrer9913people will wear the clothes they sleep in.
Pajama day, is part of spirit week.
Germans themselves notice about each other that Germans seem to non-Germans like they are harshly critical. For example, if a person asks a German what he thinks of a thing or a place, the German will begin communicating a list of imperfections and criticisms, but this is so confronting that I came to realize that this is more like a compliment rather than a condescension because what he's saying is that he is taking the thing or place seriously and providing feedback about what can perfect and refine the thing or place.
i read this in a german accent
As an Englishman who has lived in Germany for 13 years, I can honestly say the Germans are not humourless.
The humour is different, more situational and based on schadenfreude .
But, get them going on obscure and irrational and they will laugh their asses off.
Germans are funny.
So... Since this is satire it must be the English that have the least humor🤣
I find Germans really funny actually, dark humor is the best
@@MrAnton1502 a group of Americans were visiting Germany, one of whom was quite tall. They met some German guys, and hang out for a couple of hours. Finally one of the German guys asked “Vhy do you call him Tiny when he is so tall”? And the Yanks just started laughing. I guess those jokes don’t translate over there.
@@BigD481 Yeah, I've noticed a pattern... they really can't wrap their heads around American sarcasm.
Some level of schadenfreude, some level of sarcasm.
I love how Chris doesn't get the joke of how Token is the only kid laughing at Tyler Perry as Madea lol
Thanks. I didn't get it either, never having seen one of those films. Perfect.
Pecker is slang for the male organ, also another word for the beak
You can say penis on here.
Just like "nuts" is testicles. Unfortunately idioms, slang, and metaphors never translate well. Thanks for pointing that out, i was about to do the same.
Much like a Russian friend trying to figure out what the heck " an eff off moment" is when talking to a person. He said that he couldn't find any translation to it on Google or various search engines. I had to explain that I'm Aussie and I speak lots of Aussie/British slang. And an "eff off moment" is you realise you're dealing with an idiot or unreasonable person and you tell them to "eff off"
@@ServiceUnavailable It might help if you explain eff as the phonetic sound to the letter F and to eff off means fuck off.
@@minners71 Wow!! I can't believe you didn't get your comment deleted for saying eff of means f off.

"Just sounds better screaming in German." 😂😂😂 And I thought it was Americans who are loud! 🤣🤣🤣
@@JESS7CA I know Right..🤣🤣🤣👍❤️🇺🇸
I think they can both be true, right?🙃
I’m wondering if this episode of South Park is making fun of how people protest in the USA. With all of the fighting between Israel and Hamas, there have been some Persians in the USA, speaking Farsi and teaching college students how to speak Farsi, and say death to America and death, Israel, and these people have been marching down the street saying that and protesting. The only difference between the college students and activist in this cartoon is that these people don’t even know what they’re saying😂
When he screamed in German, I imagined a quiet falling over eastern Europe for a moment.
Then, after everyone realized it was a joke, nodding and then returning to the fight.
It is not volume, it is menace.
Some of what you hear is a play on words. Take the German Funnybot. The word "pecker" has two meanings. (1) Peck is what chickens do when they eat; they use their beak (i.e. pecker) to peck at their food.. (2) Pecker is a slang word for penis. Why doesn't a chicken wear pants? Because its "pecker" is on it's head.
I couldn't have explained this any better myself! Glad I checked the comments before wasting my breath typing out the same thing! lol
I also came to see if this was answered. And agree you did a better job than I.
@RSGill1903 Love the Larry Fine thumbnail pic!
-6 points for using "its" correctly in the last sentence the first time, but not using it correctly again just four words later. 🙄
@11:52 I'm sure any of the voice acting in German is meant to be terrible on purpose most of the time. Its part of what makes the show funny or silly.
I love that the German is just English word for word. No German sentence structure.
In the early 1970s I was in the Army stationed in Berlin. I was with a friend who spoke German and one day (it was a very warm day), I thought I would show that I had picked up some of the language and said "Ich bin heiss". He laughed at me and asked what I was trying to say, so I told him. He shook his head and said, "No, you have to say 'bei mir ist heiss". You said 'I am horny'." I was very embarrassed.
It's the same in French. If you attempt to say "I am hot" with a direct translation, it means "I'm horny". LMAO that's a hilarious misstep, NGL.
It also works in reverse with cold. To say "ich bin kalt" is to announce that you have no sex drive/ED.
Could have been the start of a Beautiful friendship! LOL.
Could get interesting!😂
That confusion is why I usually just state it as a fact, es ist heiss. They can then assume that I am also feeling warm.

It's like watching a 1950s scifi movie in which the Martian says, "I am eating hue-mahn food "
As a german the most funny thing to me is that the germans did construct a machine that tells the jokes so they don't have to. Outsourcing the tedious jobs to robots makes totally sense.

As an American who speaks German, I can decode what they're saying, but only because I know what each German word sounds like when pronounced like an English word. That's basically what they're doing. They probably got it translated, and then sounded each word out with a native English speaker's understanding of how things are pronounced.
Yeah there is some of that. I had a WTF moment too!
I mean yeah the point is that these are American characters suddenly speaking German they didn't suddenly become Germans like, bad German is kind of part of the gag 😂😂😂
@@Lina_unchained Also, part of South Park's gig is that they make each episode within a week. They don't go out and find a German-fluent voice actor and hire them to record the lines, they just use Google Translate and sound it out themselves.
It's made for an American audience who does not speak German I guess. Cos they aren't speaking German, it's just gibberish most of the time. It's super cringe to listen to if you speak German, but I think it's with every language they use in Southpark. The idea of them speaking German in an American way is a bit retarded, they just gave lines to ppl who don't speak German and that's it, nothing deeper than that.
Yes, they are definitely not *trying* to have accurate delivery of German lines - it's a comedy show after all, and that's one layer of the humor - is making the pronunciation sound ridiculous.
Chris...If you're not familiar with South Park, they routinely make fun of the adult population of that community and how fickle they are.
Sketchup (German TV comedy show) :
Adolf is sitting in a bar and a chick is coming next to him.
She: Adi, why are you looking so sad?
He: I have lost someting.
She: And what?

😂 German humor.
This is brilliant. Watching a German person awkwardly watch jokes about the Holocaust.
You only have to watch "Team America: World Police" and the way they do Arabs speaking Arabic and Kim Jong Il speaking Korean, to understand that them speaking gibberish in a foreign language (or speaking it poorly) is PART of the joke.
In fact, the effort they made here shows a great deal of respect. They didn't just say "derpy derpy derp!"

As an American, I used to live in Germany back in the late 80s and early 90s...

@@leonardhpls6 AFRTS... Armed Forces Radio and Television Service.
'Pecker' for a chicken means its beak, 'pecker' is also used as a word for a penis.
A lot of English speaking humour is the double meanings of words. With Germans, it's more storytelling.
you have to think of a chicken pecking away at the ground for bugs and seeds, and then picture the motion with a mans pelvis.
Oh Man! You have to watch the Canada episodes. Matt & Trey tear us to pieces. And we love it.
Start with "Royal Pudding" (Season 15). Its funnier if you know all of the city and province locations that they are referencing. And the fact that we do not have a prince or princess.
By the way, Edmonton has only one tree. 🇨🇦
I'm not so sure they should just jump in head first to a s15 episode featuring Terrance & Phillip. I mean, they are such complex and nuanced characters, I feel it would be better for them to start at the beginning with the "Not Without My Anus" episode so they can get a sense of the gravity of their characters! 🤣
A friend of mine has pointed out that her experience as a German American with humor is that the two best ways to get a German to laugh are: 1) incredibly awkward situational humor and 2) all the puns.

The comedy machine that came out in The Germans attack clip was based on The Daleks from the UK and Irish tv show 'Doctor Who', the daleks are an alien villain written into the show based purely off of the N*zis (they literally shout exterminate etc)
So your government leader declaring that the robot is 'the greatest in German innovation!' was another N*zi dig. lmao
I thought they looks a bit "familiar."
Dr Who has nothing to do with Ireland.
@@terrortorn I think he meant Welsh, since the new Doctor Who has been made in Wales, and Wales is actually in the UK.
And the "joke" or reference goes deeper than that. The Daleks are angry mutilated beings encased in a strong, metal roving death machine. The Daleks were created by a Kaled scientist on a distant plant once the war between the Kaleds and the Thalls went nuclear. The Kaleds were modeled after Hit|er's Germany.
Americans want all Germans to be Bavarians for the same reason that every European tourist in America wants to eat Texas barbeque and attend a rodeo. I don't actually know what the reason is, but it's the same reason.
It’s an easily recognizable stereotype. Plus, we used to have the Sound of Music on TV every year.
Well maybe because we love Bavarian creme. The real stuff, not the substitutes some places try to use😡
It's called "hyperforeignism."
Most Americans want to eat Texas BBQ and go to rodeo, so this seems fine.
Because the Texans are the best at both those things (and more). It's why we're the biggest state (Alaska is something like 85% un-livable, Texas is only 15% (desert southwest part). And, we know we're the best, which makes it even better (born and raised Texan, never lived anywhere else. Grew up in this culture. Which is why Catbaloo and McClintock are funny as heck.)
Robin Williams had an awesome joke about German humor, where during a live German talk show, the host asked him why he thought German humor/comedy wasn’t really known and he responds with “Did you ever think that you killed all the funny people?” 😂
As a retired soldier, I was fortunate to have been stationed in Deutschland twice. I also medivaced to Germany for treatment from Afghanistan. I really liked Germany (at least the way it was during the Cold War), and enjoyed getting to know the people and explore all of the neat places and things. One aspect of our comedy is off accents and even languages. In one comedy, the puppeteers had Kim Jeong Il speaking Chinese, or a babble that sounded like it. We actually have many people in the US that are native speakers of Deutsch. Allowing the American characters to be ignorant and well off-base is an integral part of the humor. Germans are our cousins and when we founded our country the vote over our national language was very close. English beat out Deutsch by a narrow margin. Auf Wiedersehen! 🎉
It's awesome seeing you're opinions of Germany, as I share the same sentiment, just wanted to say though that the whole thing about German almost becoming America's National language was actually a myth. German was definitely prevalent throughout american history though.
Thank you for your service, Sir! ❤️🇺🇸
@@maldyishereyo3142 Brother, since I grew up a Boomer, some things were not presented very well. There was a lot super-Pro US bias that we figured out to be false along life's road. I do know many families who stated flatly that their European sir names were shortened and often Anglicized when processing in centers like Ellis Island. Weiss became White, Muller became Miller, Schmidt became Smith, and so on. The German vs. English vote being bogus is new to me. Do have any references that you can cite for me to read? 🤔 Gott mit uns. 🙏
The gag about American actors doing fake German -- which actually traces back to the Brits doing the same thing with various languages -- is that we all understand that it's pseudo-German. The humor is in it sounding **just** German enough to make the joke work, but still keep it somewhat comprehensible for English speakers.
What I love is when a Romulan on Star Trek sounds German. I just split a gut at that. You know he's not German but probably just played one in a movie before getting that guest shot on Star Trek.
@@Robert08010 Reminds me of the commissary scene in Blazing Saddles, when a guy dressed as a failed Austrian art school student sits down next to another, and they begin speaking to each other in very obvious New York Jewish accents.

"They lose me right after the bunker scene."
🤣
There was a British comedy show, “Hallo, Hallo!” I think, set in occupied France during World War Two. One running gag was that they just put on stereotypical accents to indicate what language was being spoken. So the downed English airmen spoke posh English and couldn’t understand the French characters speaking like Pepe Le Pew and if a character was relaying information between the French and the English they would swap accents depending on who they were speaking to and characters could have mutually incomprehensible discussions among different groups that were all in perfectly comprehensible English for a British audience.

Dang it.....beat me to it. well done.
Yes, we know. And South Park knew. And Germans knew, because they enjoy Month Python.
The key to enjoying South Park is being prepared to be the but of the joke at any time. But I think in this case, the point is not about Germans or even H1tler. It's about how easily any group can be manipulated and mobilized to do horrible things without even realizing it. This development of Cartman's character is not all that unexpected since he has always busted on Kyle for being Jewish throughout the series. But in this case, Mel Gibson came out with some very antisemitic remarks shortly after the release of the film Passion of the Christ, so its easy to see how this could become a catalist for Cartman to become more blatant about his racism. Personally, I see this more as a bust on Christians than on Germans. They're just using H1tler and WW2 as a language framework to allow this story to unfold. And S.P. did another story that was similar to this, The boys were trying to raise awareness for something positive and they decided to give away free hats. So along with their other posters they wrote the phrase "Free Hat!" It just happens that there was a very bad man named "Hat" who was on death row for killing a cop (I think). Anyway, the boys gained a huge following to their cause because a lot of people thought Hat was innocent and thought the boys were protesting his sentence. Its kinda similar to how this group joins cartman but in reverse.
👍👍👍
YES. Apparently, some people are mezmerized by....forceful speakers. People actually listening TO THE WORDS are horrified. I can think of some recent examples........
Good summary.
Hat McCullough was in prison for serial infanticide.🤣 The boys were trying to raise awareness and gather people to protest the fact that G.Lucas & S.Speilberg keep re-editing and changing their films, so the boys had Tweek make free paper hats to lure people to come to their initial meeting. Of course, coincidentally, there was a political protest of people who believed Hat was wrongly imprisoned, and having seen posters for "Free Hat", mistakenly believed the boys' rally was about getting him released from prison.
True story of mine: Until two months ago, I was an "Amerikaner in Deutschland" for the past 4.5 years. I spent all my time in Stuttgart learning as much Hochdeutsch from those who would rather speak Schwäbisch. Then at the end of my work contract at the end of May, I was initially offered a position in Wiesbaden, but I eventually turned it down due to personal reasons. But I did talk to what would have been my future colleage: a German guy native to Frankfurt. He vowed that once I joined his team that he would personally teach me Hessisch (more specifically "Zentralhessisch") and have me un-learn "bad habits" of Schwäbisch, Pfälzisch, und Bairisch and teach me proper German. 🤣🤣
So what's "Platt Deutsch?"
South Park roasts everyone, every race and every religion. lol
That is why i am loving it. ❤
Dude you weren't alive in the early 1900's its ok for you to laugh, dont EVER worry and keep making vids this was so funny and interesting to watch :D
The early 1900s? Are you referring to the Boer War?
@farmbrough early 1900s =anything under 1950 ... better Mr Pedantic!
The robot was telling ridiculously obscene jokes. Full of double entendre. The German comedic robot was very funny so Germany won....they demanded the kids revote😂
But that robot looked more like the British "Doctor Who" monster, that was invented in 1963 to represent German Nazis (stiff arms you can only rise to a certain degree).
And there is this Monthy Python joke about the most deadliest joke in the world: it gets translated into German by scientists who can't speak the language (3 words started to get dangerous) - soldiers in the trenches read out that joke via megaphone and the Germans laughed themselves to death🤪
@12:43 They would add subtitles or speak English with a German accent if it was important for us to understand what they were saying. So we can assume that it's not that important to know what they are saying, only that they are angry - which we already knew.
Bingo.
It’s much funnier the way they did it.
Chris, I very much enjoyed your enjoyment.
I recall the writers, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, once did an intro to one of their shows, with a smiling Matt saying. "We are often accused of being anti-Semitic. However, I am very proud of my Jewish heritage." A smiling Trey Parker then said, "I, on the other hand, am very anti-Semitic." What a irreverent pair, no one is spared.
Being half German [born there] and English [German mother/English father], I can confirm and congratulate the award the Germans rightfully won! lol
My sister teased her German classmate by saying they didn't have big pretzels in Germany. That guy totally list it, insisting that they DID have big pretzels.
Took me a second and then I realized you meant "lost it."
To give some context: When Passion of the Christ came out many people thought it laid blame and vilified the Jews. Although the intention was supposed to bring appreciation to Christianity, Eric got the antisemitism interpretation and ran with it.
Additional context: Mel Gibson did a crazy anti jewish rant during a DWI arrest
@@denisl2760 It bugs me that a police video went public, especially since it was a drunken rant. People say and do a lot of stupid things when drunk----one reason I don't drink.
Why does everyone conveniently forget that, according to Jewish law, Jesus was Jewish. The mother's ethnicity determines Jewishness. (Ironically, the cross burners and German soldiers were all Christian).
Lmaoo I’m Mexican and I’ve always found the r***t stuff on South Park hilarious. The “sleepy Mexican” part is one of my favorites 🤣
Oh sorry I'm so sleepy so sleepy
As a "spoiled lazy white American", I have to say that I've worked with many Mexicans at a couple of jobs, and this stereotype *does NOT* hold up. Mexicans are THE hardest working, nose to the grindstone, M-Fers I've ever had the pleasure of knowing and working with!

Congrats to Germany for making it big?
We do not understand them, it's just funny to get yelled at in German. As Americans, the only time we've ever heard German spoken, is in Ww2 movies, and the nazis are always yelling. That's all we know.
However, I've now seen a few movies with spoken German, and it sounds quite lovely.
Oh now all of a sudden it's "lovely" huh?

Certainly we shouldn’t really be blaming modern people for their descendant’s or their nation’s history and it needs to be considered in historical context, but stop bringing it up at all? We still need to remember the lessons of those terrible things…
But yeah, maybe we do dwell on these things too much, I suppose… Still it’d be bad to forget about the consequences… That’s how history repeats…

Oi, there's a reason south park is known for never holding it's punches. Should have expected that friend.
Southpark has the stance that in comedy either everyone is fair game or no one is... and they take that very seriously. The only reason they've gotten away with roasting so many groups as hard as they do (including ones most comedians won't touch) is because there isn't anyone they won't roast that hard. You'd be hard pressed to think of any group that hasn't been relentlessly parodied by Southpark at some point over the decades.... they've even roasted themselves.
We love you brother! we love germans over here, you can usually tell how much we love someone or a country by how often we joke about them haha! millions of us are 20+ percent german ancestry haha
We don't like them true Americans are not of German decent
When you started to yell I had world war II flashbacks and I'm only 54.
I’m 56!! The interesting thing is that young people today wouldn’t even know who a picture of Adolf Hitler is or Joseph Stalin, or even Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. I’m wondering where some of these beach kids went to school and they are somewhere around 25 to 35
I know I shouldn’t have but this made me laugh 😂

Immediately after I saw, "Ein Wurstmacher kauft ein Müslibox", YT went to an advertisement. When it got back from the ad and it said, "I will now tell another German joke", I had to back up to understand for sure that there was no punchline for the first joke.
German often sounds funny to Americans because there's _just_ enough similarity between German and English for it to sound like a baby learning to speak. Combined with the angry German stereotype, it can have a strong comedic effect.
That said, in the US, actual views on Germany are more complicated. It _used_ to be that Germans were considered something like civilized barbarians - the most hot-blooded of all Europeans, always angry and eager to fight. This view, though often referenced in comedy, has become very uncommon. For a long time, it hasn't been how most Americans _actually_ view Germany.
Nowadays, Germany is considered something like a former abuser who came to his senses. Like, a man who did terrible things in his past, but has since changed and been forgiven - yet, still refuses to forgive himself.
So many Germans seem ashamed of being German. The past is the past; what happened is what happened. It's vital to learn from your past, to always remember what you've done, so that you don't do it again.
That said, it's also important to regain self-esteem. It warms my heart when I see Germans being patriotic. Germany needs to never forget WW2, but it's okay to move on. 🇺🇲🤝🇩🇪
That generation is almost all gone. There should be no "taint of blood" on subsequent generations for crimes of their grandfathers.
@@xitheris1758 "it's vital to learn from your past." What if what you're being taught isn't true? Does it matter?
I once met a german he was so uptight.
@13:40 They have this Madea looking teacher who over acts... then Token laughs. But when he realized he's the only one who laughed, he gets embarrassed. I just learned something from this. I never though Madea was funny, not even a little bit. Is this some dirty little secret that black people like Madea but are embarrassed for liking her?
Personally can't stand that stupid shit and don't know anyone who does. There probably is no dirty little secret involving all black people btw
That's supposed to be Tyler Perry. The joke is that his comedy is so lame that he was the only comedian that actually cared about the award. Tolkien was embarrassed, but gave him a dollar every time he did his bit.
Does he understand the joke is to make up words that sound like German and then mix in some actual words to make the point? German sense of humor at it's finest. 🤣
He might if you explained it instead of acting like this isn't his channel and he isn't reading every one of these (your) posts.
Actually, Trey is saying all German words, but he has no idea how to pronounce them. He just plugged the scripted parts into Google translate and yelled them all garbled with no idea how to pronounce them.
Anyone doubting Germany's sense of humor should check out the "Forklift Driver Klaus" video (there's a version with English subtitles on UA-cam).
So one example of German comedy out of a hundred years of mass media?
Great track record.

Can never go wrong with South Park
My parents have a second house in Fairplay, Colorado (the town South Park is based on) and I love bringing my friends up there (mostly from outside the US). I was way too young to be watching it when it came out, but we all love the show to some degree here in Colorado, haha! 😂
Some of my teachers taught the creators!
Wow, you mean you can actually eat at the Shitty Wok?!?!?
I think some of your teachers possibly stretched the truth a little bit. Maybe not. My point is that neither of the creators grew up, lived, or went to school in Fairplay, let alone south park. Fairplay was just a little hole in the wall, po dunk town that was somewhat close by, so the "cool kids" would rip on the "backwards hicks" that lived out there.
@@nouseforaname6846 Oh no I didn’t grow up in Fairplay, I grew up in the Denver suburbs like they did. The house in Fairplay is a second home. It’s pretty common knowledge where they went to school. And I went to CU Boulder as well.

13:20 "he said he's a jew" lol that's the only part that didn't need translation 😂
10:29 south Park is notorious for pronouncing things wrong for further comedic effect. They can obviously pronounce correctly but choose not to.
13:40 -- That is Tyler Perry as Madea. IIRC, the joke was supposed to be that African Americans, and *only* African Americans, find anything that Tyler Perry does hilarious.
The joke was also that Hitler and his henchman murdered any black Germans too (sent them to the concentration camps), and not just the Jews (I doubt there were any black converts back then, but maybe).
There is a British Comedy show called 'Fawlty Towers.' There is an episode where German tourists visit England. This episode shows how British also have German stereotypes. Also, the word pecker is an American slang for the male penis. The pecker is also slang for a bird's beak. I think it comes from the name of a bird called the Woodpecker.
Birds peck with their beaks. So in that sense a bird or its beak is a pecker, but it’s not slang nor any kind of standard usage for a bird or a beak just wordplay based on adding “-er” to verbs to make a noun.
DONT MENTION THE WAR!
The moose head part was a classic set up! p@@The_Absolute_Dog
The black ‘lady’ in the auditorium when the Germans invade is a spoof of Tyler Perry’s Madea character. Perry would dress up like an elderly grandmother and say things like “oh mah lurd!!” (Oh my Lord) in his Madea movies. The joke South Park is making is that only African-Americans find that kind of humor funny, so Token (Tolkien) found it funny despite himself…🤷♀️ and he was immediately disappointed in himself for laughing 😞
I guessed that but I wasn't sure. Its like Madea is some sort of guilty pleasure?!?!? LOL!!!!
It is satisfying to yell in German, granted the few phrases I know I got from my uncle and they are definitely not polite conversation.
Not polite conversation is fun to yell in any language :D
Uncle Alphabet?
Cartman getting the crowd to goosestep down the street chanting in German is one of the greatest South Park moments.
It never ceased to amazed me on how much South Park was able to get away with. Lol
As a American I love this channel lol
The German is so bad because us Americans don't care what's being said. Most of use don't understand German and just think it sounds funny.
I took 4yrs of German in high school and loved it. We gave a title for our teacher Frau Lustgarden "der Dame mit dem eisener Hand"(used masculine article for Dame) She was very strict. German is a very difficult language and I used to make many hilarious mistakes.😅😂❤😊
So, you appreciated Angela Merkel having a man's voice, then? 😂
@jovetj why not? Don't forget that English prime minister (forgot her name)Lol. Remember I took German in high school. I graduated 1967.
"Lustgarden" is itself a great name
That still doesn't change the fact that there are 49 million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Uruguay, which means if the kangaroos were to invade Uruguay each person will have to fight 14 kangaroos.That is a Fact.
The reason Americans focus in on Bavaria to stereotype Germany is because it's the most interesting part. I mean thinking of the alps, a beautiful blonde woman in lederhosen holding big glasses of beer, a beer tent, during Octoberfest? No one is making fun of that!
Outside of Bavaria, Germany is just like the US. I mean, what are we going to talk about, the Autobahn? Zzzzzz...
Ähh ok. I mean what about the east Frisians, standing with their funny caps at the waterfront, eating a Krabbenbrötchen smoking a pipe while the meticulously engineered Deich is holding back the might of the storm torn ocean? Or the incredibly good willed and accepting palatinians who are talking incredibly loud but will take you to the best wine festival with 'grumbeerbrode'? What about the citizens of Düsseldorf who are living with the biggest japanese community in Europe and are very successful with german-japanese kindergartens and japanese-rheinlandian carnival society? I mean I could go on but it is very late and I don't want to sound hostile or anything. You get what I am about I assume? Is that less interesting or just less prominent?😘
@@BaconIover69 Just incredibly obscure and hardly representative of all of Germany or a large part of Germany.
US Americans have this Bavarian stereotype, because they held the Bavarian portion of Germany after WW2
@@YTSparty neither more or less representative than Bavaria. Is it obscure because it's not the stereotype or is it obscure because it's less interesting?
@@NoonMemeWow that is a very logic and satisfying answer. Thanks
Chris, your sense of humor is excellent. I live among many, many people whose families came from Germany. (Southeast Iowa.) Two ladies I know have little in the way of humor, but I still like them.
Perhaps one thing to keep in mind is the German comedy award episode was from 2011. This show had a limited number of voice actors, and many actors played different roles. So they didn't usually hire outside talent for speaking German or what not. Technology was much less advanced back then especially when it came to language translations. I was in college at the time, and the teacher said if you use a translator like google translate you will fail (this was for Spanish a much "easrier" language). Some people did, and they did fail. It is not like now where you have chat GPT, and so many great free translation services that are fairly accurate. Especially with the wording going from English to German on a translator back then was very rough.
I think Americans think of Germans as, generally, Bavarian because during the occupation after the war the American zone included Bavaria, so many soldiers came home familiar with Bavaria in particular.
Watching you squirm while going down the “fat hole” was hilarious. Also your giggle is hilarious
I've heard that the reason Americans associate Bavaria with all of Germany goes back to the Allied occupation at the end of World War 2. The US zone of occupation included Bavaria, hence msny US soldiers associated Bavarian culture with Germany as a whole as it was their only experience of German culture in their lives up until then.

Yes you can. It's still racist.
@K-dawg26
Firstly, I am joking, and secondly, being racist is being a dick to a certain group of people in particular, so if you're a dick to everyone equally, you can't be a dick to a certain group of people, thus, you can't be racist. Twisted logic, but I think it cheks out.
As an Ashkenazi American who's grandparents made it out of Poland just in time, please know that we in the states don't think of Germans as anything remotely close to the stereotypes presented in South Park, Family Guy, etc. This is all for "shits and giggles"; please don't come away from these types of shows thinking that this is in any way what 99.9% of us think about Germans today. Germany, from our perspective, is one of the most respected countries in the world. Just wanted to say that as someone who loves your content
Still...ouch. why not make fun of Germans over something that actually applies right now, like the roast South Park did of Chleyabinsk, Russia which Chelyabinsk native Roman verified on his channel NFKRZ is an accurate depiction.
You know this guy is German when he is genuinely impressed with the architecture of a cartoon museum and the engineering of a cartoon robot. 😂
