Whoopi is a morbidly obese idiot, but all she did in this case was say the logical thing, if race equals skin color. Irony abounds. Fellow White People are mad at her. Why? It’s not a race, it’s just a religion that anyone can join. It’s not a race. Whoopi really only just said what Ben Shapiro says all the time. Race=skin color. Judaism is a religion (creed?) that anyone can join.
The Germans considered it a racial issue.
If there are 57 genders, as we are lectured about, why not 57 “races?” As you point out, the definition of race was broadened by the Left for political purposes, well beyond DNA. She ran afoul of lib orthodoxy. Big oopsie, Whoopie.
We have some FReepers who seem to agree with the Nazis’ characterization of a cultural group as a race.
Hitler said it was about Race. If he thought so while he was having the Jews killed then it was about race even if other people think “race” refers only to epidermal melanin content.
