Gina Carano talked about the Nazis and the holocaust as if they were a bad thing. Whoopi made it clear that it wasn’t her problem. She said, “Well, this is white people doing it to white people, so y’all gonna fight amongst yourselves.”
Gina Carano was warning Americans that if we continue down the road to hating one another, we will see horrors much like during the holocaust. Specifically, she said, “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors… even by children… Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”
So y’all gonna fight among yourselves vs. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?
Whoopi washed her hands of the holocaust, saying it’s just white on white mass murder. A local crime story, if you will.
But Gina Carano was fired by Disney which also owns ABC. ABC, however, just suspended Whoopi for her comments. The discrepancy would be a bit confusing if you didn’t know that Carano was a Trump supporter. Ironically, ABC is actually doubling down on hating those across the political aisle, which is exactly what Carano was warning against.
Whoopi gets the leftie pass. She’s on the correct side of history so she gets a pass.
If you ask me, neither one of them should be fired. The View is a show where stupid things are said regularly. This comment from Whoopi fit right in.
A side note: The weird thing here is that the controversy for ABC and the media is centered on whether the holocaust was racist or not. It’s sort of a weird thing to get hung up on. It is said over and over again in our culture that only white people can be racist. And white people can’t be discriminated against because minorities by definition can’t be racist.
So, given that. Whoopi clearly considers Jewish people to be white so therefore this is white on white and therefore cannot possibly be racist in origin. I get it Whoopi. She must be very confused that she’s getting hit on this because she thought she was on firm ground.
The problem is that everyone can be racist. Even daytime talk show hosts.

Sounds like Orwellian newspeak. Racism is a pretty simple concept. Well it was….But with some linguistic acrobatics we now have black people who are accused of white supremacy. Which makes sense because if the black person is white then they can be racist, but not if they are black and can’t be racist…right? It’s ridiculous, isn’t it?

When I was a teen I had a chicken coop filled entirely by hens and it was much better kept and orderly than the View. The View is a of a group of self-righteous females that pretend to be intelligent when intelligence is the farthest thing from their minds. They seem to thing that quantity of words equals quality.
