Whoopi Goldberg Doubles Down on Antisemitic Views in New Interview

Whoopi Goldberg is ending 2022 by as soon as once more invoking her controversial views which have broadly been thought-about antisemitic — brazenly 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 received Whoopi on a brand new mini-rant concerning the Jewish folks and whether or not they’re a race or not — one thing that received her in bother 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 good friend as saying … “Not for nothing is there no box on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to believe that we’re probably not a race.”

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

To that, Whoopi replied … “Yes, but that’s the killer, isn’t it? The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why are you believing them? They’re Nazis. Why believe 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-about to be mentally faulty. And then they made this choice.”

When the writer factors out to Whoopi that bodily exams have been being achieved to Jews to find out in the event that they have been, in truth, Jewish in Nazi Germany — once more emphasizing that Nazis seen Jews as a race — Whoopi pushed again and stated … “They did that to Black people too. But it doesn’t change the fact that you could not tell a Jew on a street. You could find me. You couldn’t find them. That was the point I was making. But you would have thought that I’d taken a big old stinky dump on the table, butt naked.”

She appears hung up on semantics — particularly, between race and ethnicity (that are totally different) — all ‘trigger “Jewish” does not present up on the census below race. Regardless, there is no doubt Jewish id 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 challenge is past us, however that is positively a 180 from her apology … which she delivered shortly earlier than she was suspended for 2 weeks.
