4->''"The basic story is that some wealthy jews adopt Billy (a goyim) after a mix-up at the adoption center. Billy is trying to fit into an ultra-rich-neo-con society as a crypto-white nationalist and his parents are always trying to change his un-PC ways/statements. "''

7''Billy the Heretic'' is an infamous webcomic purporting to be an autobiographical account of a white African boy who was adopted by a family of Jews. Let's put it this way: instead of linking to a few other webcomics, it links to the infamous white supremacist website ''Stormfront''. The creator has described it as "the white nationalist's ComicStrip/{{Dilbert}}".

11!!This webcomic contains examples of:
12
13* AncientConspiracy: It's a white supremacist depicting Jews. Unlike most versions of this trope, however, it seems very boring and plays all the racist views completely straight. The casual presentation of these horrific ideas however, can actually make the comic even more insidious.
14* ArtEvolution: Inverted. It started at 'barely passable' and ended up looking like a twelve-year-old's doodles.
15** For just one example, Billy's Jewish family members start out looking [[http://www.billytheheretic.com/kicked.php fairly similar to him]] before devolving into [[http://www.billytheheretic.com/halloween2.php horrific caricatures]].
16* AuthorTract: This "webcomic" is written just as an excuse for the author to tell his extremely bigoted, antisemitic, and xenophobic viewpoints without any hint of irony or humor in it.
17* BasedOnAGreatBigLie: The plot is nowhere near real. The writer is an American neo-Nazi living somewhere in Michigan; the artist is an Irish White supremacist.
18* BrokenAesop: Every single one of them; One strip centered around Affirmative Action, with Adam giving everybody with skin darker than a strip of paint a raise, and firing anybody who complained. However, thanks to the incredibly poor art, the strip of paint [[LazyArtist isn't even shaded]] and is pale white, making it look like everybody got promoted.
19* ExcusePlot: Beside just blatantly promoting antisemitism and white supremacy, there's virtually no semblance of a plot, character development, or anything for that matter.
20* GreedyJew: Billy's adopted parents, and pretty much any Jewish "character" for that matter, are blatantly depicted as this and every other antisemitic caricature known to man.
21* HitlerAteSugar: Inverted; the comic points out that just because Hitler did something doesn't make it wrong, and then uses that as justification to support everything he stood for anyway.
22* InsaneTrollLogic: The comic relies heavily on LogicalFallacies and false premises to make its blatantly antisemitic and racist views a point.
23* LazyArtist: In a standout example, [[http://www.billytheheretic.com/pet_food.php one strip shows Billy and his adoptive father reading newspapers]], obscuring most of their bodies. Rather than take a few seconds to draw necks and shoulders, the author just gives them [[FloatingLimbs Floating Heads]].
24* RecycledInSpace: This is ''VideoGame/EthnicCleansing'' IN WEBCOMIC FORM!!
25* SoUnfunnyItsFunny: The comic by and large fails at successfully telling jokes, but it becomes legitimately hilarious when it attempts to seriously expound its inane conspiracies.
26* StrawCharacter: ''Every'' single character that isn't our "hero" Billy is this.
