Title: Only whites can be racist
Post by: Hawkmoon on February 02, 2022, 09:01:27 AM
Case in point: Whoopie Goldberg:

https://tvline.com/2022/02/01/whoopi-goldberg-suspended-the-view-holocaust-comments/

Ms. Goldberg has been suspended from The View for saying that the Holocaust wasn't about race. Her explanation?

Quote
She also discussed the controversy on Monday’s Late Show With Stephen Colbert, saying in part: “It upset a lot of people, which was never ever, ever my intention. I feel, being Black, when we talk about race, it’s a very different thing to me. So I said I thought the Holocaust wasn’t about race. And people got very angry and still are angry. I’m getting a lot of mail from folks and a lot of real anger.”

So, if someone says something mean about black people, that's racist. If someone kills a few million white people because he thinks they are racially inferior -- that's not racist.

Got it. Not only can only whites BE racist, apparently only blacks can experience racism.

The two weeks is a vacation while this is forgotten. If she were a conservative saying it, she would have been fired and blackballed.

"Only whites can be racist"  - says the non-white racist.

Frankly, Goldberg is right.  The Jews killed by Hitler were Caucasian people also. 

Not that the Nazis weren't racist- they were as well.  But the Jews were victims of anti-Semitism, not racism. 

Race is technically defined by what type of skull you have.  Heck, even many Ethiopians and Somalis are actually Caucasians (they have about 40% Caucasian ancestry, mixed with sub-Saharan African ancestry, but they inherited the Caucasian skull type.)

I guess it gives you special victim status to be the victim of racism?

Sort of like the absurd idea that being opposed to Islam is "racist."

The Nazis classified Jews as a separate inferior race.
From our point of view it could be considered a non race issue but to the Nazis it very much about race.

I think you are right.  Shows how much they knew, I guess.

Our definition of what constitutes a particular race is very broad with lots of fuzzy edges. The Nazi definition on the other hand was very fine in comparison but that was very common at the time.
Goldberg's problem in this is that she's looking at what constitutes a separate race from a modern American point of view and not from the viewpoint of early to mid 20th century Germany.

Yes, hence the "master race". Whether scientifically accurate or not, they were basing what they did on "race".

Part that disturbs me the most nowadays is compare the language the Nazis used to vilify the "Jewish race" to the language being used by many of the  race baiters, including many talking heads in the MSM, nowadays to vilify the "white race" and it's pretty much identical.

They (or at least some) pretty much have the same goals even if they won't admit.  I am sure they would say they would stop short of concentration camps and death chambers, but that isn't that much of a leap once you convince yourself you are superior and those other people are preventing your utopia.

If I can find them I have screenshots of woketards calling for gulags and pogroms. They aren’t even trying to hide it.

So- do Jews consider themselves to be white?

I don't think all of them do . . . here's an image of Ethiopian Jews.

As far as the left and dems are concerned if they're useful villains (Israel) they're white, if useful victims they're an oppressed minority.

To the left, skin color is the only thing that matters.....unless you are Asian and then maybe.

I wonder what the Daily Mail would say about the recipe for Gypsy Chicken Soup?

They'd probably object to the word Gypsy right off the bat, but their heads would explode when they got to the recipe itself which begins with "First, steal a chicken . . . "

This recording of an obvious white supremacist has more use of the N-word in a half hour than pretty much anything else I have heard. Especially horrid is how he attacks a poor gentleman with some sort of epileptic disorder.

In recent news, a video from 2019 surfaces of Mayor Adams of NYC calling white policemen "crackers."

https://www.lawenforcementtoday.com/adams-boasts-about-being-better-than-cracker-officers-in-resurfaced-video/

Now, as a proud cracker myself, I am not personally offended.  But make the enemy live up to their own set of rules, I say.

I demand that the evil Racist mayor be hounded out of office!!! 

Or is it different when non-whites do it?   ;/
