Two Sentence Horrors.
The title should be the first sentence, while the body should be the second.
Keep it spooky.

Antisemitism even as a joke is still antisemitism. Not sure what the point of this community is but if it’s content like this then I’m not interested. Blocked
This community revolves around two sentence horrors, stories where the first sentence typically takes on an other far darker meaning once the second sentence is read.
Its very common for these types of stories to explore difficult content like murder, suicide, conjugal violence, etc so it's natural that some of them would gravitate to the worst horror of all time.
I think it's a very big mistake to turn the holocaust into a taboo that can't be mentioned. I wouldn't call Schindler's list or The Book Thief antisemitic, I wouldn't label this story like that either. I believe it's okay to explore what happened through popular mediums.
There's really nothing humourous about it and it doesn't make light of it at all imo.
Hey I just wanted to say that I agree with you.
I do support having someone from the affected group taking a look and giving an "official" opinion over this, but without that I don't see this as remotely qualifying as antisemitism.
These sentences had the desired effect - the first one has me thinking the father is a POS who deserves jail for kidnapping an innocent family and holding them prisoner.
The second one has me realizing that the father is a hero and the narrator is far worse than a mere POS human being. Either way, my sympathies stay with the family the whole time. This is horrifying specifically because what is about to happen to them next is so unjustified and unjustifiable.
