If Goldberg was a republican, instead of a leftist democrat twit, she would have been fired outright from the View.

Whoopi Goldberg Suspended from ABC’s ‘The View’ over Holocaust Comments
Paul Bois1 Feb 2022

Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended from ABC following her controversial comments about the Holocaust in which she said the extermination of six million Jews was not about race.

“Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments,” ABC News president Kim Godwin said in a statement.......

And not just that. She also said, referring to the holocause:

"Well, this is White people doing it to White people, so y'all gonna fight amongst yourselves,"

Which doesn't make sense because she still called Kyle Rittenhouse a racist and white supremacist even though he only shot white people.

As I said in another thread, her line of reasoning makes no kind of sense whatsoever.

I don’t watch, but why isn’t Rogan getting suspended? People have posted his racist comments, and nothing has happened to him.

Why don't you link to so-called racist comments Rogan has made? Not a tweet from one of your nut job radicals. Deflecting doesn't address Whoop's racism. Do you condemn her statements, or not?

Parts of Whoopi's comments were appearently caused by a lack of knowledge about the definition of race in the eyes of the nazi regime back then.

Dicussion about her Holocaust comments on the Megyn Kelly show (I had a slight language-problem sometimes, didn't understand all the English expressions, but I guess I got the main points :

But I had the impression now a few times, partly in older interviews/shows, she might be racist against white people...also in some of her movies, including 'Ghost', that I linked to in my first post here.
There were two scenes where she played to be, but just a bit more convincing even than the rest of her part...

Maybe I should be more careful about what I am saying as well in this case.
Because in writing or if broadcasted in media it seems more like almost 'carved in stone' than in a spontaneous verbal conversation.

Possibly Whoopi is just - like me and many others - a spontaneous, outgoing type who shows her true feelings most of the time kind of automatically.
To have a certain feeling about a part of humanity, maybe because of lifelong bad experiences, doesn't necessarily mean one is discriminating them unconciously or even conciously.

I didn't ask her, so I don't know and have no right to really judge...

I like her in her movies anyway...🙂

teasel, can you please post some of these RACIST comments here along with video or audio links for us to see for ourselves?
Thanks in advance!

ETA: And if you don't answer this question, I will have to start a thread asking you directly and publicly.

Rogan interviews guests. Some are controversial, such as questioning the efficacy of Covid vaccines. That doesn’t mean he agrees with all of what all of them say, or even any of it.

I don't think she should be permanently fired for these lines of comments, seeing that she has been saying deranged things for a few years now, and been applauded by the woke mob.

Derangement is part of the left’s MO. The difference is this was overtly racist. They can’t allow that to stand.

I didn't know she said other things since years, can't judge about it and maybe knowing that background would change my view about what she said now.

But in general a person should not be condemned for ignorance plus spontaneously putting some sentences together in misunderstandable ways.
She did call what happened during the holocaust (amoung many other things) inhuman, she just didn't know that race differences are (depending on the definition of the word 'race') not always necessarily visible.
At the time of the holocaust Jews in different countries mostly married only other Jews, still today partly.
So that created certain differences genetically and culturally.
If you call it another race is just a question of word-definition.

In India the caste system through many centuries has created much more visible differences, native people of the same city can look like from not the same continents.
Other races ?
What's the definition exactly ?

Give the woman a break, at least for this mistake.

Whoopi and practically all the women on The View are a mindhive who continuously and with arrogance, label those who disagree with them and the democratic party, white supremacists, racists, alt-righr, fascist, deniers, mysoginists, and in their mind the ultimate insult, Trumpers. And they always call for them to be cancelled. There are very few exceptions to this behavior of them.

Perhaps this incident can remind each and everyone of these women that they too can fall from grace at any moment and be cancelled too. To have a bit more nuance in their thinking and not be so rabid in going after people.

That whole show should be canceled, but failing that, at least Whoops should go.

In that case (can't judge, never saw the show) what's happening to her right now is her well deserved mirror and karma. 😉

Just a short addition, didn't want to leave this thread here without mentioning that I'm actually on no political side really.
Not living in the US either and not thoroughly enough informed.

But I'm sure I don't like several of the viewpoints of the Dems (some I do though),
and I'm no fan of goal/ideology oriented fogging or distortion of the as far as possible objective reality, in general.

This is not referring to anybody in this forum at all right now, just talking about political oppinions, discussions, shows...in general. 🌻

LOL and what about president Biden’s extremely vulgar and racist comments throughout his whole career? Since were deflecting from the original topic. Why do you always come in here with your “whataboutism” ?

I’m sure you’ll say CONTEXT!!!! when it comes to Biden, but when it comes to Rogan context doesn’t matter right? Lol. You realize Rogan spoke out against trump multiple times right and was a Bernie guy? he never said anything racist and those clips were taken out of context. You are so unbelievably blind I almost am starting to think that you have GOT to be trolling us because there’s no way that someone can be so opinionated yet never researches literally anything ever

I don't expect you to know any better, since you live in a CNN bubble, but it was taken out of context.
