Ricky Gervais on the Holocaust and Nietzsche | Best of Politics | Universal Comedy 

His little laughs to himself are endearing like "I can't believe I'm getting away with this.😄

3:28 when a shock wave hits the crowd and the joke just worked. His satisfaction face is hilarious.

One of my favourite bits of Ricky stand up.

Nietzsche’s story is actually much sadder than that. While the guy was dying of syphillis and slowly going insane, his fascist sister and brother in law edited his writings to support their antisemitic tendencies. It was along time before anyone other than honest German scholars really understood his writing. Pretty fucked up if you ask me.

07:54 absolutely perfect timing and delivery

One of the best of the modern commedians.

This joke never gets old! 😂

If you do autoerotic asphyxiation, hold both ends of the ligature in one hand so if you lose consciousness your grip releases and you recover. Or so I imagine.

3:29 someone just got the joke XD

Ricky is the man. He's my favourite comedian

Thank you Ricky 💜

Your gonna set yourself alight? Had me dying of laughter 😂😂

Ricky Gervais is the funniest man on Earth at the moment. And he has been for about 20 years. The guy is fantastic!

Lol you the best much love from Fall River Massachusetts USA

I looked up Steven Milligan but couldn't find any reference to amyl nitrate - I did find that proposals were put forward that he was murdered

The one person booing offer the yoko part hahahaha

Ricky is a badass

I had a friend with a dog that liked to be choked, it was the weirdest thing ever. She was incredibly smart, well-trained, and human-like; and my friend wasn't a shitty person so it took him a few years to figure out what she wanted. But sometimes she would beg for her leash (she didn't need it, she was perfectly capable of heeling), then stand at the door while you pulled on it for ten seconds or so. Then she would go back to normal and go along for the walk, totally happy. Then sometimes she would put her throat in your hand out of nowhere and do an uncharacteristically aggressive growl until you choked her a little bit, again for about ten seconds (lightly of course). Then she would hop on your lap. It was bizarre. She was a rescued street dog, so it does make you wonder what kind of weird hijinks she was getting up to on the street.

Lmao did someone else hear de SUII at 10:04?

Jimmy Carr's joke came from this... let jokes be jokes

RG is such a brilliant person!!!!

Poor thing, that guy. Having to change trains at Crewe.

Return of the stand-up philosopher comedians. I bet Socrates knocked 'em dead.

Ricky Gervais is comedic genius

Half Windsor knot does the trick, allegedly!

Hard in the paint 10/10.

There was a shower scene 😂🤣😂🤣

Brilliant

"Have a box of Kleenex ready." LOL!

GOAT

love dark humor hahaha

Why did someone suiii at 10:03

What is the reference for 'gypos do we need them?' can anyone explain?

Can someone explain the boy George part?

Didn't get that about Boy George at 11:10. Can someone explain?

That crispy Munk is on the cover of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE'S First self titled album So he did get som notoriety out of his action well many not the way he hoped BUT STILL he'd never be remembered unless that album cover Just saying 🇧🇻

The jacket was a Milligan joke

Based

There was a shower scene!! And people are upset with Jimmy?!!?!?!!! Brilliant jokes, and they are jokes, not endorsements to genocide.

BANGERS AND KILLER BANGERS PLUS A LIL MASH.... I WENT MAX MAD TO DIE, GOD HELP HIM

The jacket bit fucking ended me

The train story was Billy Connoly's

This is way beyond Jimmy Carr's holocaust gyppo joke.

Point at for me *one* comedy film with a laugh track. And I don't mean a film where there's an in-universe audience, or an in-universe TV show with a laugh track. I mean like, _Young Frankenstein_ has no "laugh track."

I had a friend that liked being choked, she knew she liked it but she didn't realize how much she liked it, until she went to a doctor and he had to feel in her throat even tho she wasn't attracted to him and he was older than her to the point he wasn't attractive, him just touching her neck was enough to excite her more than she could handle

Getting rid of your pants only to find you'd been given a jacket, fucking lol 🤣🤣🤣 that reminds me of one time when I was a kid, we were getting ready for school in a rush one morning and my mum was like "can you get a towel for your sister" (her class had swimming that day), I was like "ok" and grabbed the first towel I saw. After school I found out that what I'd actually thrown in her bag was... a tea towel 😆 it was like 20 years ago but it still cracks me up, because she didn't find out herself until she went to use it 🤣🤣🤣

Australia 2022

I was late for a job interview and jumped the taxi queue, and people nearly murdered me. The driver also wouldn't take me. Government employee job, being late is probably a virtue.

The art of subtlety.

“There was a shower scene” I’ve just realised what that means oh god

They better don't discover these bits lol. I bet they'd look real "good" quoted in some tweets and posts calling for him to be cancelled for pretty much everything he said there ^^

Oh no, they'll be after Ricky next for that comment....

Who's gonna tell him about _Hogan's Heroes?_

2:11: What are gippos??

What's a Millets?

I bought the special 25th Anniversary edition of Schindler's List on Blue Ray. It came with hilarious behind the scenes outtakes.

Shat myself, What's the pension scheme like?

I think more people need to laugh at the Holocaust. Not because it was funny, it wasn't. But instead because if you don't, you end up were we are today.

Will Gervais' next act be on the Middle Passage of the slave trade? That would be a no.

difference between this and Carr, it's the way you tel 'em

Read between the lines

Yet not a single Enigma transmission or a single document written by Churchill ever said anything about German doing anything negative towards Jews...

This is full of Hasbara.

Can't you see the similarities

Nice hand signals if you know you know

Men near to dieth if you go to far funny but not a suicide note they will not pay the insurance.

The answer is no.

He nicked that other way round joke off someone else,it's donkeys years old.

That man was killed. It wasn't an accident

Wonder how long it'll take people to 'cancel' Ricky over these jokes like their doing with Jimmy

The best comedy is based on fictitious events.

2:13 this is what Jimmy Carr is getting slaughtered for right now.

I love Ricky, I really do. The office was revolutionary and extras and Derek are absolutely amazing. But the more I watch his stand up and the more I re-listen to XFM the more him and Steve just seem like pseudo intellectuals, trying very hard to show everyone how smart they are. That’s why people like Norm will always be the greatest to me. Incredibly smart dudes who try at all costs to seem otherwise.

It's funny that Ricky thinks Nietzsche would've cared

There is only ons problem in this all. psychopats, capitalists, companys

Better lot let those anti jimmy carr loonies see this ;)

It wasn't just Jews. There were more Romani people per capita, a lot of Slavs, homosexuals and other folks who didn't come up to their standard. None of them rate a mention now. Must be a different standard happening.

I encourage everyone to RU-vid "Why Socrates Hated Democracy."

He's so badly dressed, that suit doesn't fit.

Nietzsche is the new hero of todays pseudointellectuals.

What makes me laugh is the British guy mentioning democracy....

They won't even try and cancel Ricky, cus he doesn't care.

Just because Ricky Gervais identifies as a stand-up comic...

I wrote this amazing book in which I postulate existence of true superman! A man living free of authority and collective pressures of society, the one who sets out to create trends not to follow them, someone who, no matter what will not cowtow to the will of majority and will never be turn into a blind follower Amazing...so what you are saying is that we should create powerful authoritarian regime, and this people will join our army! Well no, such a person would not really be good at following orders or would not be maliable to propaganda. Yes, propaganda! Strong nation! Strong people! The best people! I have this strong feeling that you are not really listening to me.

this is not funny

Be careful Ricky look what bullshit has happened to Jimmy Carr

Jimmy Carr took the joke a step further.

Will Gervais do a comedy skit on what happened on September 11th, 2001?

Shhh don't let the cancel clowns know this is here!

As brilliant as Gervais is, he's too stupid to see past the lies surrounding WWII. I suppose his misunderstanding gives him lots of material to work with.

Class, poor Jimmy carr tho in this snowflakes world

BUT HE WASNT WRONG

The laughter sounds canned

Come on Ricky, buy clothes that fit you.

Shameful.

Stolen from Roy Chubby Brown the Kleenex joke....

I don’t object to most jokes even if racist, misogynist, etc. but the mention of the shower scene is cruel

Blaming a philosopher that's new. Why does nobody mention that Hitler was a big believer in Darwinism and that the supreme court of Germany declared Jews weren't people based on evolutionism.

Just because anyone can make a joke about anything, doesn't mean you should. Or that it will be funny. And l generally like Gervais's humour. How old is this Video?

Yeah some things just aren't funny.
