But I don’t think Whoopi’s comments drew the ire of major Jewish figures because she “retro-fitted” current racial categories onto Third Reich-era Germany. The main issue is that she doesn’t talk about the Holocaust properly, or doesn’t grasp its implicit moral lesson in full. — PolitiTweet.org

The question of Jews “whiteness”—whether they are considered White and consider themselves White—is a prickly one. Jews are “Non-Hispanic White” according to the U.S. Census, and must navigate difficult waters, as the “assimilationist” ethic is displaced by “diversity.” — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

Yes, yes, on one level, Whoopi’s comments were ahistorical, or just “cringe.” She seemed to be saying that The Holocaust was “white-on-white violence”; it wasn’t about “race,” since in Whoopi’s America, Jews are considered “White.” — PolitiTweet.org

Furthermore, Whoopi’s “controversial” comments on The View were in no way an attempt to minimize or deny the enormity of the Holocaust—but in fact were an effort at making the Holocaust the moral center of the contemporary world. — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, Whoopi adopted the name Goldberg in the name of “philo-Semitism” or “pro-Judaism.” She saw herself as “part of the tribe” in the sense that she embodied a legacy of suffering and outsider status. — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

In fact, Whoopi doesn’t have any Jewish (or German) ancestry. She adopted the name in the 1970s and ‘80s, as the Holocaust was becoming salient and powerful as a symbol of suffering and persecution. Perhaps she understood her African-American heritage as a kind of “Judaism.” — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

The article mentions a less charitable theory: Whoopi chose the name as a way of getting a leg up in Hollywood and Broadway, as many Jews are successful king-makers in the entertainment industry. For what it’s worth, her star turn came in Steven Spielberg’s *The Color Purple.* — PolitiTweet.org

According to Whoopi: “My mother did not name me Whoopi, but Goldberg is my name, it's part of my family, part of my heritage. Just like being black." https://t.co/xYHwjL4uhv — PolitiTweet.org

Perhaps the oddest thing about the Whoopi Goldberg controversy is the actress’s choice of stage names—“Goldberg.” To make matters even odder, Whoopi—born Caryn Johnson—truly believes that she has Jewish heritage. — PolitiTweet.org

Pierre Trudeau was a decidedly “fashy” version of the Canadian Left, at least when it came to law and order. I’m not sure Justin inherited his father’s spine. https://t.co/IdRvhONMFB — PolitiTweet.org

“We must protect the DNA of criminal psychopaths and men too weak, sick, and ugly to get a girl.” Christians are the only beings in the universe capable of making such an appeal. https://t.co/Xz1EF3IrIt — PolitiTweet.org

@PoliticalProfi1 @BruceTitan12 Tucker’s criticism was utterly incoherent and self-serving. He’s the one promoting the idea that mRNA vaccines are dangerous and should be taken off the market. So why complain that they’re not being delivered first to older White people? — PolitiTweet.org

Richard Spencer @RichardBSpencer

@PoliticalProfi1 @BruceTitan12 Very early on, it was clear that Covid was spreading faster and was more deadly in Black areas. Additionally, races with darker skin synthesize less Vitamin D than Whites in colder environments with less sunlight. So the public health decision was rational—in fact, HBD informed! — PolitiTweet.org

Does Jordan Peterson express any opinion that isn’t effectively tactical nihilism? “Climate—isn’t that everything? “What’s race really? My uncle was Irish.” “We just can’t know enough to make economic policy.” Does this result from seeing the Bible as the basis of truth? — PolitiTweet.org
