Soup "Nazi" is portrayed as the worst character in the episode for having the audacity to deny Elaine service. The audience is meant to identify with Elaine and indulge in her triumph when she threatens to publish his recipes.

Also, the entire series finale is about them being persecuted by characters from previous seasons. They're portrayed as the victims the entire time.

>>67970382

The series was about telling the goyim that obnoxious, immoral, criminal Jews are funny and charismatic.
>>
>>67970605
>They're portrayed as the victims the entire time.

If by "they" you mean people who encountered them, then you are correct.

If you mean Jerry/Elaine/Kramer/George, then you are incorrect.
>>
>>67970605
>Sou "Nazi" is portrayed as the worst character
Except he's not. He's portrayed as a dick because he is kind of a dick to his customers but whatever. Meanwhile, Elaine is portrayed as a petty dick. The audience will see a bit of themselves in Elaine (as well as the Soup Nazi, as I remember quite a few people saying "that's how I'd run my business!" when that episode aired came out) but they aren't seeing positive qualities. That's sort of the theme of the series.

You've completely misinterpreted the ending of the series. In the finale, they laugh at a man as he dies. That isn't portrayed as "good." They aren't portrayed as "victims." They're portrayed as "kind of bad people" (not awful, heinous people, but lousy human beings) and in the end are punished for it. This is clear cut.

I think the problem is that you've confused "main character" with "good guys." There's really no "good guys" in Seinfeld. There's just people and people can be kind of shitty, especially Seinfeld and his friends.
>>
>>67970649
The main cast are clearly depicted as being victimized by people to whom they did nothing deserving blame.
For example, Marla calling them sick for merely playing a simple masturbation game.

>>67970785
Soup Nazi is clearly meant to be the worst character in the episode, an intolerant monster who has no right to run his business the way he pleases. Elaine is the casual, easy-going customer who acts indignant and hurt when she's told she can't have any soup by that horrible dictator. The audience is meant to identify with her, and see him as unreasonable and deserving of punishment for being such a "dick". We are meant to live vicariously through Elaine as she tells him she can put him out of business, and the studio audience roars as she screams "NEXT" in his face.

>In the finale, they laugh at a man as he dies. That isn't portrayed as "good."
It's supposed to be funny. And because it's funny, there's no reason to consider them terrible for doing it. They're just a wacky bunch as far as most of the audience is concerned, so it's fine for them find almost anything funny.

>I think the problem is that you've confused "main character" with "good guys."

>Soup Nazi is clearly meant to be the worst character in the episode
No, he's just a dick in that episode. Elaine, meanwhile, is a petty dick.

They laugh at a man as he dies. That is terrible.

>The problem is you have a show with immoral filth
Says the man who thinks it's funny to laugh at someone as they die. You have a problem, dude.

>We know.
You got a turd in your pocket? It's just you misunderstanding a television show that was pretty straight forward.
>>
>>67971207
Seinfeld and his friends are all shitty people. Most episodes end with bad shit happening to them and us having a laugh because yeah they deserve it. Series ends with them in prison because yeah they kind of have it coming to them.

If you can't understand this, I feel bad for the people who have to deal with you.
>>
>>67971207
>The main cast are clearly depicted as being victimized by people to whom they did nothing deserving blame.

No. The people brought to the stand -- well, some, not all -- were clearly shown to be actual victims of the gang, ex: Soup Nazi, that guy who got deported and whose restaurant failed (forgot his name), etc. The gang isn't being "blamed," necessarily for what happened to them, they were brought to establish their character as being uncaring narcissists that sort of grouped together through happenstance.

In no way were they [Jerry, etc.] being portrayed as "victims" by any stretch of the imagination.

He's called a Nazi. He has people living in fear of being denied service at his restaurant. He is portrayed as intimidating, mean-spirited, and in desperate need of being rebuked on behalf of the people he is oppressing. Elaine isn't shown as petty, but as the clever champion who rids the neighborhood of this villain.

>They laugh at a man as he dies. That is terrible.
No, it's meant to be funny. Everything our band of Jews does is entertaining and terrific.

>Says the man who thinks it's funny to laugh at someone as they die. You have a problem, dude.
It's not me, but the writers who portray it as such.

>>67971548
>Series ends with them in prison because yeah they kind of have it coming to them.
The series ends with Jerry cracking jokes in the can, just as lovable and charismatic as he ever was.

>The gang isn't being "blamed," necessarily for what happened to them, they were brought to establish their character as being uncaring narcissists that sort of grouped together through happenstance.
All of this is overlooked and the main cast are continued to be considered as fantastic, charismatic, and worthy of fond memories. The things they did are never properly represented as horrible because of their characters' comedic roles in the show.

It's not that you insulted it; it's that you've so thoroughly and completely misunderstood the entire show and its characters. It wasn't subtle that these characters were portrayed as assholes. These were the same people who made up fake charities, mugged an old lady for bread, pretended to be cops, and refused to share toilet paper with a woman (after stealing the toilet paper out of her stall).

You can hate the show all you want. Stop being wrong, though.

All the bad things they did were overshadowed by their charisma and they managed to stay in the audience's good graces because of the writers' desire to make such behavior appear appealing and worthy of emulation to the general public. I'm seeing the show for what it really was.

Nobody wanted to be like the characters in Seinfeld. If anything, their characterization made watchers realize what petty dicks they could be and caused them to improve their behaviors.

What you're saying is basically "Homer Simpson is a bad because he glorifies stupidity and makes people want to be stupid." Except he doesn't.

You're a silly person if you "wanna be cool like the rad characters on the teevee." Is this the kind of person you are? Does Dexter make you want to be a murderer?

>Mark Andrew Twitchell (born July 4, 1979) is a Canadian convicted of first degree murder in 2011 for killing John Brian "Johnny" Altinger.[2] His trial attracted substantial media attention because he was inspired by the Dexter Morgan character,[3] featured in Jeff Lindsay novels and the Dexter television series, a serial killer who works as a forensic bloodstain pattern analyst for the fictional Miami Metro Police Department.

http://cnsnews.com/mrctv-blog/kristine-marsh/teen-confesses-killing-dismembering-girlfriend-another-dexter-inspired

>Miles admitted to the court that he stabbed his 17-year-old girlfriend Elizabeth Thomas in the back of the head, chopped up her body and put her parts in plastic bags. He said he was inspired by the character 'Dexter" in the popular television show about a serial killer-forensic investigator who tortures, murders and dismembers criminals in his "kill Room."

Demanding every show feature characters that are always upright and moral is silly, though, especially given that Seinfeld was pretty responsible in making sure the characters were punished for being bad people most of the time.

Because you don't really care.

You'd be out there personally volunteering money and time and blood helping individuals and making a difference. Truth is, you don't really give a shit, you just want to attack something that other people liked and try to ruin it for them. In this way, you are truly a loathsome cunt.

You can have characters that people like that aren't characters people would also emulate, though. People who like Seinfeld realize his behavior isn't meant to be emulated (in fact, the humor comes from the fact that he does things you most definitely are not supposed to do).

>The comedy comes from laughing at them for committing faux pas and doing bad things,
The comedy comes from them being charismatic and likable, which is supposed to overshadow their wrongdoings in the eyes of the average viewer. It makes them attractive.

No, the comedy specifically comes from them doing things you clearly are not supposed to do.

Look at the scene where George pushes an old lady out of the way to escape a fire. This isn't "charismatic" nor is it "likable," it's something you're not supposed to do, and it was met with uproarious laughter.

It isn't. You just can't logically express why you disagree with me, so you jump to comparing me to people we dislike here. You do this because you want to shut me up without having to get into a legitimate argument.

Yes. Some people in the real world do things they know they're not supposed to sometimes. They did this before Seinfeld. They did this before television.

You're not really showing how Seinfeld encourages them to emulate the characters when the show itself clearly illustrates that their behavior is wrong and shouldn't be emulated (again, most of the episodes end with them getting their well-deserved comeuppance and the audience clapping as they reap what they've sow).
>>
>>67975680
>I don't wish to live in a degenerate society.
Already too late for that. Lord Jerry Seinfeld, King of the Jews, killed society back in the 90's. And all you can do is cry about it on 4chan while other posters call you an idiot and laugh at your tears.

Face facts. You've lost. You're a loser.

Because it's clearly wrong, as evidenced by how the show punishes Seinfeld (and his buddies) for their misdeeds.

Just because behavior is funny doesn't mean it's meant to be emulated. A lot of funny acts aren't meant to be emulated.

They're never punished severely, though. They always retain their charismatic and appealing personalities and natures. Even in prison, Jerry is depicted joking and laughing. Elaine and Kramer (the best example of what I'm referring to) are never seen punished for their misdeeds in the finale.

>Just because behavior is funny doesn't mean it's meant to be emulated. A lot of funny acts aren't meant to be emulated.
And yet people do. They see behaviors that make them feel pleasant and seek to copy them.

>>67976167
I would have to become a hermit be able to do that. And maybe not even then. My immediate family and I will naturally be affected by the state of society, as will future generations. You're naive to think you can "just live your life" no matter what.

They are punished severely, though. They lose their jobs, they lose money, they lose opportunities, they lose social status, they lose relationships, and they wind up ultimately in prison.

>Even in prison, Jerry is depicted joking and laughing
It's to show he's still a bad person and thus deserving of his punishment, which is depicted as bad (living in a such small, bland quarters with three other people for years).

>They see behaviors that make them feel pleasant and seek to copy them.
No. The behaviors make them "feel pleasant" (in other words, they're funny) because they're behaviors they're not supposed to do, as has been evidenced in this thread.

Do you think adults laughing at The Three Stooges then went out and hit their friends over the heads with hammers? Seriously? Not every behavior in television is emulated by right-minded adults. In fact, the people who go emulating bad behavior seen on television generally have mental disorders already (such as the man you posted about earlier).

Because the sodomy joke was naughty and provocative. It wasn't exactly a graphic description of rape that made them legitimately uncomfortable.

>>67976962
>They are punished severely, though. They lose their jobs, they lose money, they lose opportunities, they lose social status, they lose relationships, and they wind up ultimately in prison.

And yet they remain funny, charismatic, and appealing to viewers.

>(living in a such small, bland quarters with three other people for years).
This isn't shown. Jerry is portrayed telling jokes, not suffering as an inmate.

>The behaviors make them "feel pleasant" (in other words, they're funny) because they're behaviors they're not supposed to do, as has been evidenced in this thread.
Yes, the behaviors make them feel pleasant, and they seek to reenact them to get these feelings back.

>Do you think adults laughing at The Three Stooges then went out and hit their friends over the heads with hammers?
You mean the show that's still referenced and imitated today? Yes, I think people did injure each other copying what they saw in entertainment.

People see negative behaviors, and if they're made to feel good about seeing them, they will imitate them, especially if it is easy to do so. Rather than actions from the Three Stooges and Dexter, think about degenerate actions that are more easily emulated in an ordinary person's life.

I can't help you being upset by the truth instead of using it to improve yourself. But it's understandable, you're just being spiteful after having your feelings hurt.

>>67977334
>remain funny
His act gets booed. I wouldn't exactly say he "remains funny." There's even that moment where he becomes very serious mid-act, telling the guy who wants to kill him to "lighten up" while, in his voice, you can tell he fears for his life. Hell, you could say that's another thing he loses, his sense of humor, because the act he performs genuinely isn't very funny or up to his standard.

>This isn't shown
It absolutely is in the scene before the last scene.

>Yes, I think people did injure each other copying what they saw in entertainment.
You're wrong: zero "Three Stooges" related injuries.

>People see negative behaviors
And they laugh, but they don't imitate them. Seeing a man get hit in the groin doesn't make your average adult man want to be hit in the groin.

>Rather than actions from the Three Stooges and Dexter
No, those are absolutely valid to the discussion. They're behaviors viewers could emulate but don't because they know they're wrong. The same applies to Jerry Seinfeld. You want to dismiss those shows because they easily debunk your claim: Dexter most certainly did not lead to a mass of killing sprees by its huge viewership. One guy claims to have been inspired, and he was mentally ill beforehand.

You've created a poor argument that you can't support in any true fashion. I'd continue proving it wrong but I don't have the time. Feel free to reply with a rebuttal, but know that it will be in vain.

Not by the audience. I believe it's supposed to be deliberately cliched, but the audience, both in studio and at home, still laughs.

>It absolutely is in the scene before the last scene.
When they're shown casually talking in a clean cell.

>And they laugh, but they don't imitate them.
Of course they do.
>Seeing a man get hit in the groin doesn't make your average adult man want to be hit in the groin.
No, it makes them want to hit someone in the groin, or at the very least see someone be hit in the groin in real life. We can actually see evidence of this throughout video sharing sites and shows like America's Funnies Home Videos where real injuries are met with roaring laughter.

>No, those are absolutely valid to the discussion. They're behaviors viewers could emulate but don't because they know they're wrong.
They're actions that may be difficult to emulate in real life. Whereas many of the behaviors on Seinfeld and on similar shows are easy and legal, if immoral and degenerate.

People are most certainly influenced by and imitate actions in media, television included. You cannot refute this and you will never turn me in favor of any depiction of any behavior that devious writers and producers wish to see broadcast.
