Abstract

This article investigates the moral wrongness of joke theft. Working through a trove of real-world cases, and using the sitcom The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel as a touchstone, I argue, ultimately, for a pluralist approach, contending that there are several wrongs that may be present in any case of joke theft, but which cannot be reduced to each other and which are collectively irreducible to any sort of “superwrong.”

为什么开不了玩笑?偷窃的几个道德层面——哈哈

本文探讨了笑话盗窃的道德错误。通过对大量现实案例的研究，并以情景喜剧《了不起的麦瑟尔夫人》(the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel)作为试金石，我最终主张采用多元主义的方法，认为在任何盗窃笑话的情况下，都可能存在几种错误，但它们不能被归为彼此，也不能被归为任何一种“超级错误”。
