Hitler's belief that Jews were a race is not immaterial. It's literally what the Holocaust was based off of. People can say that Jewish is not a race all they want. It's not what you think it's what he thought because he's the one performing the Holocaust in the first place. All Whoopi had to say is why I don't believe that Jewish is a race Hitler believed it and therefore the Holocaust occurred under that belief. The End.


No. The holocaust to which you refer was orchestrated because that is how fascism works; an enemy must be identified for marginalization, which stirs up the "base".

Eugenics, a psuedo-science popular at the time, was based on the idea that some people were inferior and that these inferiorites
were largely, but not solely, racially based. Anyone with a significant mental disability was considered inferior as well. People, brown and black people, were actually forcibly sterilized in the U.S. under the auspices of this foul system of belief.

Arguing semantics is all well and good, but the fact remains that Whoopi spoke the truth, and has now been suspended as a consequence.

I didn't realize Jewish is now a race :smh:.

She was telling the damn truth. White people massacred white people as a crime against humanity.

In as much as race is a socio-economic construct, she is right. The same analogy could be applied to all people marginalized and generally dehumanized for their skin color and hair texture. Racism is man's inhumanity to man. The root of racism and antisemitism, and general white supremacy is religion. Raoul Peck's mini-series Exterminate all the brutes, based on the book by Sven Lindqvist, goes over all this history in detail. One interesting fact from that series was that Nazi Germany used the USA treatment of native Americans as a model for the final solution. So the Native American Holocaust, African American Holocaust, and the Jewish Holocaust have a common thread. The USA and its systematic practice of White Supremacy/Christianity.

Their fucking with Whoopi is because they like I and a lot of other people thought Whoopi was black but one of them and if you watch the show "The View" which I have Whoopi is a 100% and I or you may not agree with some of the things she says but a lot of it is correct.

They don't like her and her attitude of "fuck you and fuck it" that happens when you hit a certain age.....she's said sorry twice and I know she'll go home and her life will continue on.

A lot of folks that got sent to the concentration camps were Christians with Aryan spouses. Couldn't tell a dreidel from a yamaka, but they were condemned because of that one Jewish grandmother they never met.

And it's not like the Nazis invented this. They we're just continuing a long European tradition.

So yeah, it is most certainly a race. The gatekeepers invented it

You ever saw Jewish on a census
So what are they choosing?

Why does it matter what's on a census?

The Canadian census doesn't even mention race at all. They want to know your ethnicity.

So does that mean race doesn't exist in Canada? I can tell you firsthand that it absolutely does!

People don't attack synagogues because a bunch of german/italians go there. Bill Maher and Howard Stern are both atheists, but people still send them hate mail for being jewish. Did not have a box on the census change that?

I wish it did work that way because then we can end racism tomorrow by erasing a bunch of boxes on a government form.

I always believed that Judaism and being Jewish was a faith. Yes hitler did call them a race that he wanted extinct.

But someone asks me what race is Jerry Seinfeld? I’m gonna say that nigga’s white! :lol:

If someone asks what color’s Drake’s Mom? I’m gonna say that she’s white too!

They attacked those folks because of their ethnicity.
If a black person name is Hakim people will assume he's of the muslim fqith but they will know he's black. If Hakim changes his name to Tom. Well people still knows he black.

If a person who considers himself a Jew and his name is Goldstein. People will assume he is of the jewish faith. If he changes his name to William. People will not assume he is of the jewish faith and will simply think of him as white.

It's a weird combination of both. Off-white if you will.

However I do know some Jewish people who get mad as hell if you call them white. You and I might see them that way, but they sure as hell don't.

92% of Jews identified as white. Why are they fucking with this woman?

My thing is why even speak on them? why do we, as black americans, care to speak about them in any light?? Leave the topic alone and speak about us only; no need for comparisons are any of that other bullshit; who cares; they are getting their money from that shit; we not; so fuck talking about them; at this point, shit is retarded; why talk about something that you know you gonna get punished for; it makes no sense...

Damn a Black women suspended her for saying Jews are white and saying Nazis killing them was a crime against humanity? White come us with race, then get to decide who is white (irish, italians, jews), now they can flip race to religion? WTF

Whoopi got fucking played for giving a shit about a group of people that are now out to destroy her. She won't be on that show for long. NFL coaches and players should watch and listen at how real power works. Jewish people woke the fuck up as a cllective and said cancel Whoopi's ass.

Whoopi Goldberg suspended by ABC for two weeks over Holocaust remarks.

Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended from a US talk show after saying the Holocaust involved "two groups of white people".

ABC News said Goldberg would be off-air for two weeks after her "wrong and hurtful comments".
The actress and TV personality said on ABC's The View that the Nazi genocide of the Jews was "not about race".

She apologised but then caused further offence while attempting to explain her remarks on a late-night show.
In a note to staff on Tuesday night, ABC News president Kim Godwin wrote: "Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments.

"While Whoopi has apologised, I've asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.
"The entire ABC News organisation stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities."
"These decisions are never easy, but necessary," she added in the memo, reported the Hollywood Reporter.
"Just last week I noted that the culture at ABC News is one that is driven, kind, inclusive, respectful, and transparent. Whoopi's comments do not align with those values."

'Words matter'

Earlier on Tuesday, Goldberg issued her third public apology.
"Yesterday on the show I misspoke," she said to open the talk show.
"[The Holocaust] is indeed about race, because Hitler and the Nazis considered the Jews to be an inferior race.
"Now, words matter, and mine are no exception. I regret my comments and I stand corrected. I also stand with the Jewish people."

The 66-year-old Oscar-winning actress, who has been on The View since 2007, first made the controversial comments on Monday's show while discussing a Tennessee school board's banning of a graphic novel about the Holocaust on the grounds that it showed nudity, profanity and suicide.
Amid the uproar, she released an apology hours later.
But on CBS' The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Monday night, while attempting to clarify her comments, she said the Nazis had lied and actually had issues with ethnicity not race, which caused further offence.

It is not the first time Goldberg has caused controversy.
She said in 2009 that film director Roman Polanksi - who pleaded guilty to "unlawful sex with a minor" in 1977 - was not guilty of "rape-rape".
She also defended Bill Cosby as he faced sexual assault allegations, before reversing course amid a backlash.
