Whoopi Goldberg Doubles Down on Holocaust Views in New Interview

Whoopi Goldberg is ending 2022 by as soon as once more invoking her controversial views which have broadly been thought of antisemitic — overtly questioning what she stated that was so dangerous.

The well-known cohost of “The View” chatted with The Times, the place her so-called “cancelation” was introduced up … and it acquired Whoopi on a brand new mini-rant in regards to the Jewish folks and whether or not they’re a race or not — one thing that acquired her in hassle earlier this yr.

Whoopi says that Jewish folks themselves are divided on whether or not they’re really a race or not, even quoting one Jewish buddy as saying … “Not for nothing is there no field on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to imagine that we’re in all probability not a race.”

The writer factors out what many have already stated on this subject — specifically, that the Nazis considered the Jews as a race, due to this fact (on this context) they need to be mentioned as such.

To that, Whoopi replied … “Yes, however that’s the killer, isn’t it? The oppressor is telling you what you might be. Why are you believing them? They’re Nazis. Why imagine what they’re saying?”

Whoopi goes on to double down on the notion that the Holocaust wasn’t about race, from her POV, by saying … “Remember who they have been killing first. They weren’t killing racial; they have been killing bodily. They have been killing folks they thought of to be mentally faulty. And then they made this determination.”

When the writer factors out to Whoopi that bodily assessments have been being executed to Jews to find out in the event that they have been, in reality, Jewish in Nazi Germany — once more emphasizing that Nazis considered Jews as a race — Whoopi pushed again and stated … “They did that to Black folks too. But it doesn’t change the truth that you can not inform a Jew on a road. You might discover me. You couldn’t discover them. That was the purpose I used to be making. But you’d have thought that I’d taken an enormous previous smelly dump on the desk, butt bare.”

She appears hung up on semantics — particularly, between race and ethnicity (that are completely different) — all ‘trigger “Jewish” would not present up on the census below race. Regardless, there is no doubt Jewish identification is multi-faceted — and Jews are, for certain, an ethnic group … and have been seen by way of this lens all through just about all of historical past.

Why Whoopi continues to nitpick this concern is past us, however that is undoubtedly a 180 from her apology … which she delivered shortly earlier than she was suspended for 2 weeks.
