I agree with Rabbi Daniel Lapin that Whoopi's apology should have been sufficient. The View Spew is ostensibly a discussion show where alternate viewpoints are discussed. Whoopi, being an ignorant race-obsessed (black vs white only) leftard probably really did not about the racial aspect of the Holocaust. When the ADL guy straightened her out, she aplogized for her ignorance. It is getting scary to see people punished and canceled over an alleged wrong opinion or viewpoint.

There are all kinds of stupid BS that people spout, like the History Channel "It was aliens" guy, or people who think man never landed on the moon. Rosie O'Donnell was allowed to state her opinion on The View Spew that 9/11 was some sort of hoax/inside job. All it did was nake her look like the ignorant sow she is.

From the view of a population geneticist, it would be difficult to properly define any religious group as a “race”. However since Hitler corrupted science and used such definitions in his inhuman effort to eliminate groups he hated, then in a real political sense what he did was genocide. It is the primordial fear of all minority groups be they racial, religious or political, living within a culture, given the right political and social circumstances, such genocidal policies can happen again almost anywhere.

Let’s see.. Characterizing a group of people as ‘subhuman’. Justifying hate for them. Calling for them to be culled from society.

Sounds a lot like the left’s hate for Trump voters.

In some small way, this dust-up might be good for the country. Whoopi said some thing wrong, something that offended a few people.

So what! She did not advocate violence, or anything like that. A brief clarification on her part should have been enough. No apology was even necessary.

Unfortunately Whoop now joins the long list of folks who got smacked around just because some delicate soul somewhere got offended. Maybe this event will make at least some leftists reconsider the whole ā€œcancel cultureā€ thing.

Disclaimer #1: I’m probably dreaming here. Cancel culture will keep claiming innocent victims.

Disclaimer #2: Yep, I know that Whoopi was a big cancel culture proponent - until it happened to her.

ā€œAdolph Hitler was clearly trying to speed evolution along.ā€

I think that was an excuse, at the most. He was driven by hate, not science, not even perverted science. I think he was trying to erase the Book, and its moral imperatives, by exterminating the people that he regarded as representing it in the flesh.

acceptance of Darwinism came the acceptance of ā€œbiological determinism.

racism = determinism + collectivism + subjectivism

this is what lefturd loons do all day long

Applying today’s concept of race to the concept of race as understood 100 years ago is always going to lead to misunderstanding of history.

A book called ā€˜The Story of the Irish Race’ was published in 1921. Not just the times were different.

::When the ADL guy straightened her out, she aplogized for her ignorance. ::

Why is someone like Whoopi so ignorant of the holocaust?
Because she has lived her entire existence in the echo-chamber of the Democrat party. She was TAUGHT nothing, she learned how to regurgitate to obtain the approval of her betters.

She has lived her life on the plantation porch and would never say anything that would have the Party kick her off.

Correct. He said this clearly in both of his books.

13 million people were killed during The Holocaust, 6 million were Jews.

On the other hand, and despite long winded theories, to Hitler, the Jews were a convenient and useful scapegoat.

Hitler didn’t just view Jews as another “race,” but another species.

A mere two week suspension is what she got. Normal people have gotten much worse for less. She be just mad cuz she got some punishment. She is convinced that she should not have to pay any penalty for that, and every time she looks in the mirror she sees the two reasons why she normally gets a free pass.

I agree. The term “race” being more akin to tribe. I have had “The Story of the Irish Race,” by Seumas MacManus, in my library for many years. Fascinating source of old writings.

Race is a man made construct. We are the human race.
People who focus on skin color are racist. Whoopi is a racist.

ā€œI have a dream that my four little children, will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

Racism occurs across all peoples, of all colors, ethnic origins, and socio-economic strata.

Yes Whoopi is a nut. But what she said is hardly a cause for major screaming and crying and rending of garments. When she said that it was more about man’s inhumanity to man than race that was an arguable point. And when she later said that you can’t tell a Jew from any other white person just by looking at them, that was true as well. I’m all for taking liberals to task, but this was stupid.
