The Stupidest Thing Whoopi Has Ever Said...

Editorial Staff - February 1, 2022

Allow me to preface this story with the following: As a comdeian I always enjoyed the humor of Whoopi Goldberg. As a matter of fact I even considered her a comedic genius. But as a talk show host spewing forth her venomus lies, well that is a completely different story. I often take odds against many of her comments.

But this last one was a dousy which just showed her ultimate ignorance about the subject of the Holocaust.

Whoopi Apologizes After Claiming Holocaust Was “Not About Race”

From Rich Lowry on Twitter: "This has to rank among the most hilariously stupid and incompetent TV segments ever."

After watching the taped segment I was astounded at how she repeatedly five times declared that the Holocaust was not about race. She then went on to claim it was about "man's inhumanity to man" Well maybe in her limited capacity she might have believed it. But ignorance is no excuse in this or any other case where someone in the public eye makes such a ridiculous comment.

She did however later in the day after being called out on it issue the following apology in a Tweet. “On today’s show, I said the Holocaust ‘is not about race, but about man’s inhumanity to man.’ I should have said it is about both,” continuing on to say “As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, ‘The Holocaust was about the Nazi’s [sic] systematic annihilation of the Jewish people — who they deemed to be an inferior race.’ I stand corrected. The Jewish people around the world have always had my support and that will never waiver [sic]. I’m sorry for the hurt I have caused. Written with my sincerest apologies, Whoopi Goldberg”

How many see through that apology as what it was? An attempt to back peddle and avoid the backlash from her ignorance. Just thinking out loud here, what are your thoughts.
