Why? She claimed the Holocaust was not about race because Jews and Gypsies are \u201ctwo groups of White people.\u201d Goldberg must have slept through her high school\u2019s history class because it is common knowledge that Hitler killed Jews, Gypsies, Poles, and Russians because he considered them all \u201cinferior races.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On <em>The View<\/em> on January 31, 2022, when one host criticized a bill in the Florida legislature that would ban in schools conversations on race and gender that could make students feel uncomfortable, another host stated that teaching about the Holocaust could soon be prohibited in schools. Goldberg then chimed in: \u201cThe Holocaust isn\u2019t about race. No, it\u2019s not about race.\u201d When another host said that the Germans \u201cconsidered Jews a different race,\u201d Goldberg remained adamant: \u201cIt\u2019s not about race\u2026It\u2019s about man\u2019s inhumanity to man, that\u2019s what it\u2019s about.\u201d When another host remarked, \u201cBut it\u2019s about a White supremacist going after Jews and Gypsies,\u201d Goldberg responded: \u201cBut these are two White groups of people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AhITfM4bqO8?start=275\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/center>\n\n\n\n<p>For these comments, ABC <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ABCNewsPR\/status\/1488701213256396802?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1488701213256396802%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fmedia%2Fwhoopi-goldberg-suspended-from-the-view-following-holocaust-remarks.print\">suspended<\/a> Goldberg from the view for two weeks. \u201cEffective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments,&#8221; said ABC News president Kim Godwin. &#8220;While Whoopi has apologized, I&#8217;ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What no one in the American media reporting on the story has emphasized is that <em>Goldberg just could not allow herself to admit that Jews and Gypsies were victims of racism because her woke ideology fiercely holds that white people cannot be victims of racism<\/em>. Goldberg is an unapologetic leftist and supporter of critical race theory (CRT). According to CRT, all whites are oppressors and all minorities are the oppressed; by definition white people cannot be victims of oppression. Indeed, CRT holds that &#8220;racism  = power + discrimination.&#8221; Since white people are viewed as having power, they cannot be victims of racism, no matter that Hitler considered Jews, Gypsies, and Slavs as &#8220;inferior races.&#8221; Thus, Jews and Gypsies, being \u201cwhite,\u201d were not victims of racism by Hitler and the Nazis; rather, the Holocaust was a crime of a more vague description, originating in \u201cman\u2019s inhumanity to man.\u201d Yet race was irrefutably a key component of Hitler\u2019s ideology. And since one of the main points of Holocaust remembrance is to prevent such atrocities from ever happening again, removing the racial component from the Holocaust is something we do at our own great peril.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One person who did notice the effect of critical race theory on Goldberg\u2019s thinking was the Australian commentator Rowan Dean. As reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skynews.com.au\/opinion\/andrew-bolt\/whoopi-goldbergs-holocaust-remarks-show-insidious-critical-race-theory\/video\/97e4b4316637ac2a0ffd824e046911f1\">Sky News<\/a>, Dean said about Goldberg and the radical left:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It just shows the rest of the world how insidious critical race theory and the new racism of the left is. That they genuinely believe that Hitler was not a racist. That\u2019s how far, how low they have sunk in Western thinking.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it. A woke host of <em>The View<\/em> refuses to say the killing of Jews and Gypsies by Hitler was racist because according to the left, white people can never be victims of racism. Let us hope that during her two-week suspension Goldberg can rethink her devotion to critical race theory and the absurdities and inhumanity to which it leads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;It just shows the rest of the world how insidious critical race theory and the new racism of the left is.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":651,"featured_media":121914,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"mc4wp_mailchimp_campaign":[],"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"subtitle":"\"It just shows the rest of the world how insidious critical race theory and the new racism of the left is.\"","format":"standard","video":"","gallery":"","source_name":"","source_url":"","via_name":"","via_url":"","override":[{"template":"1","single_blog_custom":"","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"1","layout":"right-sidebar","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"top","share_float_style":"share-monocrhome","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_prev_next_post":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-500","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","sponsored_post_name":"","sponsored_post_url":"","sponsored_post_logo":"","sponsored_post_desc":""},"jnews_primary_category":{"id":"513"},"jnews_social_meta":{"fb_title":"","fb_description":"","fb_image":"","twitter_title":"","twitter_description":"","twitter_image":""},"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[804,513,805],"tags":[4352,7093,977,15949,15948,15947],"class_list":["post-121334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-breaking-news","category-entertainment","category-foreground","tag-abc","tag-critical-race-theory","tag-holocaust","tag-rowan-dean","tag-the-view","tag-whoopi-goldberg"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
