Actress and co-host of ABC’s ‘The View’ Whoopi Goldberg has once again defended her controversial view that the Nazi Holocaust was unrelated to race, less than a year after similar comments landed her a suspension. two weeks after said issue.
Goldberg, 67, assured again this Saturday in an interview with The Times newspaper that the genocide of Jews by Nazi Germany was “white against white” violence and “not a matter of race.”
“Remember who they were killing first. They weren’t killing racially; they were killing physically. They were killing people they considered mentally deficient. And then they made this decision,” he said.
When the interviewer pointed out that the Nazis actually saw the Jews as a minor race, and even performed physical tests on them to confirm it, the actress stressed that this is the version of the oppressor saying what you are. “Why do you believe them? They are Nazis. Why believe what they are saying?” she questioned, adding that the Jews were not the only target.
“They also did that to blacks,” he insisted, while explaining that Jews are not easily identifiable. “That doesn’t change the fact that you can’t tell a Jew on a street. You could find me. Not them. That’s what I meant,” she declared.
On the other hand, Goldberg also stood firm in his comments on the biology of transgender people, which many in the community described as transphobic, after saying during a discussion on abortion that “men do not have eggs.”
In this sense, the presenter explained that trans men, biologically born as women, have eggs. “They can have eggs, but they don’t get pregnant,” Goldberg replied.
“But I have questions because trans men, I was told, still have their prostates,” she said, being corrected again by the presenter, who clarified that these people are actually “trans women.”
