Whoopsie Goldberg

Thank you so much, Whoopie Goldberg!

If there is one thing every human being around Planet Earth enjoys, it is getting a front row seat to watch an arrogant, destructive, formerly untouchable person who has hurt a lot of people finally get their comeuppance and suffer the consequences of what they themselves have dished out. And that is the true happiness that dingbat Hollywood figurine Whoopie Goldberg is bringing to us all – she is finally reaping the rewards of the many hurtful things she has said and sown for a long time.

What did Whoopie Goldberg do, to bring us all this enjoyment? Well, basically she made a whoopsie! She, of the culturally misappropriated Jewish name Goldberg, spoke her mind in public in such a way that even her best friends and advocates could not stand by her and defend her.

For one thing, Whoopsie Goldberg said that Adolf Hitler and his murderous gang of thieves, burglars, con men, and sadists were not really racist, because they were only targeting Jews. Only a true believer neo-Nazi or someone from Hollywood can come up with a line this dumb, because if anyone in the history of humanity defined racist, it was Adolf Hitler.

I know, I know, people like Whoopie throw around the word racist a lot, and someone like Whoopie Goldberg probably falsely accuses a zillion innocent people of being racist every week, so that the word loses its meaning to her and everyone else. And when the word loses its meaning, why Whoopsie Goldberg just can’t recall what it means any more. She only knows that she must say it…against just one group of people…which makes her…racist.

Which brings us to a second absurdity that got Whoopsie in trouble. I watched her on the Colbert Show flippantly call “white people” “all you.” As if all of us “white” people all look the same to her, are the same, or something like this, because to her our skin looks white. And you know, all White people are the same. Helloooooo Whoopie…this is racist crap, honey.

And then, the third thing: Whoopie said that only “white” people can be racist. She said it so casually, so disdainfully, that even that audience sat dumbfounded and silent in full recognition that Whoopie Goldberg is a flaming, raging, proud, unrepentant racist.

For the record, as wrong as it is, racism is nonetheless experienced around the world. Everyone does it. People of all colors and ethnicities disdain, mock, and hate one another for differences in skin color, skin tone, facial structure, and even ethnological linguistic differences. The Japanese remain some of the most unrepentant and brazenly racist people you can meet, and while I don’t agree with them on that score, I am in good company still driving their awesome vehicles. And while you are over in Asia noting Japanese racism, make sure to take note of the Han Chinese racial superiority over all other humans.

The Han Chinese number roughly a billion people, believe they are superior to everyone else, and while they are no minority, it is supposedly “racist” for Westerners to criticize the Han imperial expansion across the globe. Take note of how the Han Chinese ethnic group built a railroad train into the heart of Tibet in order to dilute and stamp out the supposedly racially inferior native Tibetans.

Skip over to Africa and you will see roughly 800 different ethnic and linguistic groups across the continent. And while many of them may appear similar to the outside eye, they  maintain a serious racial pecking order amongst themselves. Witness the 1990s Rwanda genocide between the Hutus and Tutsis. One group was believed by the other to be too White looking, and therefore worthy of mass murder. And so rivers throughout Rwanda flowed for months with unending streams of butchered human bodies. Now that was racism.

End up as a lost Caucasian in the ‘Hood in America, and you are likely to at the very least get a good earful of racist taunts and nasty looks. Yup, Whoopie, even Blacks can be blatant racists. Racism, real racism, undermines everything “everyone is equal” that America is about.

Racism is everywhere today, just as it always has been, but people like Whoopie Goldberg and her ridiculous show The View have made a healthy living calling everyone who is not a racist leftist a racist, and then trying to blacklist and cancel the poor innocents out of existence, while they themselves (Whoopsie’s leftists) are extremely racist.

It warms my heart to see Whoopie earn a hearty dose of cancel culture herself. The difference is that unlike her many innocent victims over the years, she really is a racist, and she really did deserve to be canceled.

Thank you for this ingenious but incorrect insight, Whoopsie, you racist

Out of all proportion

If there is one core element to the “new thinking” taking America down, it is victimology.

You know, the idea that everyone is a victim, and some people are special victims and some are especially victimized.

For someone to be a victim, there must be a perpetrator, and political correctness has created all sorts of creative solutions to real and perceived wounds which perpetrators can, or must!, endlessly do to atone.  America has been afflicted with this, to the absurd point where illegal aliens crossing our borders in search of better work are “victims” and deserve our taxpayer money and the right to vote themselves a lot more of it.

It is a fair idea that people should be treated fairly.  No arguing with that.  But what happens when whatever apology, compensation, or other action worth remedying the problem has been completed, and the victim identity remains?  This phenomenon is nowhere more clearly evident than in the Middle East, or technically the Near East, where “Palestinian” Arabs have wallowed in artificial and purposefully perpetuated victim status for five decades.

Even their refugee status is inherited, contrary to every other refugee situation around the world.  The UN helps maintain this arrangement.

Although there were nearly twice as many refugee Jews ejected from Arab and Muslim nations at the same time, no one talks about them.  Islamic imperialism and Arab colonialism are responsible for one of the largest and longest-standing occupations ever on planet Earth, where the farms, homes, and businesses that once belonged to Jews are now the property of supposedly well-intentioned Muslim Arabs.  Billions of dollars worth of property and banks were stolen overnight, from one group of people and given to another group that had no claim on it other than they held the knife and gun, and the victim did not.

If someone were looking for victims to feel bad for, the Jews have had that victim experience in spades, not to mention the Armenians (Christians who suffered a none-too-gentle genocide and land-theft at the hands of the Muslim Turks from 1910-1915), Kurds, Tibetans, and, well, never mind that the iconic and fiercely warlike Oglala Sioux ejected the Mandan, Cheyenne, and Pawnee from millions of acres of their historic Happy Hunting Grounds and militarily occupied them for hundreds of years…after all, the American Indians who massacred, tortured, and occupied one another are considered to have engaged in acceptable behavior.  Anyhow, I digress…..

The Jews now find themselves fighting for their lives with their backs to the wall, yet once again against Islamic supremacists, Islamic imperialists, and Arab colonists; and those same Jews are now presented with yet another double-standard: Proportionality.

This is the idea that, if someone hits you in the face with the intention of killing you, but fails to do so that first time and is winding up to hit you again and harder this next time, why, you are only supposed to hit them back once and only just as hard as you were first hit.  You are not allowed to land a knockout punch, despite having survived an attempted knockout punch.

The EU demands that endless Arab rockets from Gaza onto indigenous Jews, living an unbroken 3,000-year presence in their homeland, be met with…thousands of random rockets from Israel?  My God no! Unacceptable!

Obviously, the idea of proportionality is alien to every people that has fought a war, especially a defensive war.  War is fought to be won, and dumbing-down and reducing the effectiveness of your response is a foolish and possibly suicidal thing to do.

But Europe and America cater first and foremost to artificial victims, and no matter what, those victims are due every gift, every extra opportunity, every kind gesture in the face of bloody hands, truckloads of taxpayer money despite tremendous waste by the recipients, and so on and so forth.  Although this behavior seems suicidal, suicide seems to be the new definition of democracy, in the interest of appeasing the ‘victims’ among us, out of all proportion to whatever happened in the first place.

But to give the supposed victims their due, proportionality must be maintained, and in the Middle East today, Western civilization is expected to fight Islamic aggression, theft, murder, and occupation with both hands tied behind its back.  It is apparently the new thing to do.

Long live Kurdistan!

The Kurds are an old ethnic and linguistic group in the Middle East, and they are the largest ethnic group in the region to not have had a homeland in the modern era.

The Kurdish homeland was broken up in the 1920s by the winners of World War I, and the various pieces were rudely tossed into the aggregated melting pots that became Syria, Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Lebanon, and Israel.

But as Iraq and Syria have disintegrated, the Kurds there have naturally coalesced into their historic homeland, bolstering their communities.  And they are motivated, powerful warriors, whose culture is highly secularized and pro-West.

The result is that Kurdistan exists in all but name, and this week the Kurds took formal control of Mosul, a huge and symbolic city formerly in Iraq.  Congratulations, Kurds!

What is so intriguing is the Kurds have received zero support from the political Left, who are in love with the murderous culture of hate and evil developed by the so-called “Palestinians,” an ad-hoc ethnically and linguistically diverse group of people mostly emanating from the regional Bedouin.

More or less the Arabs in and around Israel have been turned into international heroes for murdering children and opposing the only indigenous ethnic group there – the Jews.  Never was there a “Palestine,” never was there a “Palestinian people,” and the egregious lying necessary to invent this anti-Israel movement prompted Newt Gingrich to call these Arabs “the invented people” in 2012.

In fact, the so-called “Palestinians” are the best representatives of Islamic imperialism and Arab colonialism, two forces on a collision course with America.

So once again, the Left (the American Friends Service Committee being the worst; how is it that the Quakers of all religious groups became so radicalized that they promote murder and mayhem?) is supporting the bad guys, the violent evil people, the inhuman butchers, and again doing nothing to support the good guys, the Kurds, or the Tibetans for that matter.  When Kurdistan is finally recognized as the free, stand-alone nation it is, it will be a big step forward for the good guys.

Long Live Kurdistan.
