Whoopi Goldberg’s Loudest Critics are the Real Racists

Whoopi Goldberg’s comments on the Holocaust were misguided and clumsy. But those exploiting the row are the ones with the ugly motives, namely the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) & corporate media outlets that vilified Amnesty International’s report on Israeli apartheid.

{With Western politicians and the media dehumanizing the Russian, Chinese and Iranian peoples by vilifying their leaders – and thereby driving us towards potentially catastrophic wars – it is no bad thing to be reminded that Hitler had larger ambitions even than a genocide of the Jewish people.

It is worth being reminded too that propaganda, and groupthink, occur in every period of history. It is not just one state at one time that has duped its people into committing crimes against humanity. And similarly, many groups and “races” have been victims of others’ greed and fear. To pretend otherwise is to make the repetition of such crimes more likely.

It is quite possible for Goldberg’s comment to be unhelpful or simplistic – this is daytime TV, after all – without it being especially harmful.

Nonetheless, not only was she required to apologize but she was barred from the show for two weeks “to reflect and learn.” It seems a Black woman is in greater need of reflecting on her racism than the ABC News organization and her white colleagues.}

At the beginning of the article Cook makes a statement I highly relate with. "Whoopi Goldberg is not someone I would normally rush to defend". That's because I view her as a Holloywood black elite correlated much into my beliefs of the elite black politicians I post regularly about here, mostly from my education from the Black Agenda Report over the years. Which just happens to coincide with my youthful various "dark views" of humanity and socialism I rarely find in others.

Which what I put in bold above indicates to me that my foundation of that aspect of my beliefs are seemingly supported. As to myself, her avoidance to use this opportunity to expose the nature of the industry she's in, MSCM, and political arena, speaks volumes to her dependency to remain, rather than becoming an outcast. You might find this following article on Hollywood Executives of interest. [blackagendareport.com] I've been waiting for someone from the BAR to post an article on this recent occurrence.

{That makes sense only in the modern world of souped-up liberal identity politics, where each “race” gets to have exclusive rights over their own concerns. Black Americans can talk about slavery, though not so much about poverty and the justice system. Jews, or rather Jewish organizations, get exclusive rights to define and contextualize the Holocaust. Hispanics get … well, it’s too early to decide what they get.

And whites – the rich ones, at least – get to act as referee while all the other “races” argue about who’s been victimized most.}

The end result, as it's choreographed to be, is what prevents a genuine social discussion within a realistic nature which keeps us divided. And you'll most likely never see that on a TV or hear it on a radio, especially of the means of an MSCM source or Hollywood.

😟 The Anti-Defamation League’s Greenblatt appears to have adopted the role of mentor as Goldberg “reflects” on her black privilege. He accompanied her as she made a second apology live on The View, the seeming first step on her path to re-education.

Does Goldberg really need to be schooled on racism by those like Greenblatt who shout their offense loudest? 😟

It's even more sad as I could have imagined!

{Let us back up a minute.

Whoopi Goldberg had observed that all of us are capable of behaving inhumanely towards others: “It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, Jews … everybody eats each other.”

That is precisely a message Israel’s supporters like Greenblatt have tried to make taboo – and they have used the Holocaust as their most effective tool of enforcement. Greenblatt and the ADL need to sustain a narrow orthodoxy about the Holocaust: that it is by far the worst crime in history; that the Jews were the central, if not only, victims of it; and that for those reasons Jews should always be considered victims and never perpetrators.

The Holocaust has long served as Israel’s get-out-of-jail card, wielded by figures like Greenblatt.

Goldberg inadvertently threw a spanner in the works. She disrupted the entire narrative of Greenblatt and the rest of the Israel lobby by observing both that there were other historic victims of the Holocaust and that all of us, in the right circumstances, can end up being perpetrators of crimes against humanity, even Jews.}

Inadvertently? Yea, I'm kind of leaning another way on that. Inadvertently would imply Goldberg is to ignorant to understand she's being forced to conduct a PR stint. That her emphasis isn't about allowing herself to being put out there, and used, while attempting to save her career. This isn't rocket science people. She fell face first into the overwhelming delusional reality of the Israeli governments false narrative that has been taking hold of our nation for several years now. Now that I'll say was probably, inadvertently.

Look at this from a common citizens point of reality. Goldberg just got both of her limited verbal and written warnings from her employer all at once. She's now on a list facing potential firing for any further outburst/infractions of the same type of occurrence that interrupts production/manufactured social structure. I'll throw a Jackson on the table betting some government official related to Israeli affairs quickly got a hold of her billionaire employer. If Greenblatt was sent in to do PR damage with Goldberg, you can be pretty dam sure the government is hovering over this. Goldberg might be well advised to conduct anything related to electronic devices very carefully.
