The Challenge: Whoopi Goldberg’s suspension from “The View” after saying the Holocaust was not about race.
It appears that evidently the ignorant girls of The View all want a historical past lesson in Holocaust research (“Suspended & out of ‘View’ for two wks.,” Jan. 2).
To be reportedly “livid” that one among their very own was suspended for spreading disinformation concerning the Holocaust is absurd.
If anybody is livid, it needs to be the folks and households whose lives had been ruined by the Nazis.
Over 6 million innocents had been brutally murdered. Households had been destroyed and to at the present time nonetheless endure from Nazi Germany’s effort to annihilate the Jewish race.
The forged of “The View” wants a actuality examine and a historical past lesson — and whereas we're at it, take them off the air.

In the beginning, let’s get one factor straight: There's one race — the human race.
That mentioned, the Nazis definitely thought that Jews (and everybody else who was non-Aryan) had been a distinct race.
Whether or not you suppose Whoopi is being picked on for her alternative of phrases or not, I’d need to ask her: What was your level? Why say something like this in any respect? It achieves . . . what?
I certainly do hope her two-week suspension turns into everlasting. We don’t want anymore folks like this on tv.

I agree that what Goldberg mentioned concerning the Holocaust can't be ignored. Nonetheless, I don’t consider she ought to have been suspended.
She ought to have needed to take part in a televised discussion board the place opposing viewpoints might be mentioned.

Sufficient already. Suspending Whoopi Goldberg? What is that this, highschool? Hearth her and cancel “The View.”
The panel is all about verbally trashing any opinions that it doesn’t gree with: Don’t anybody ever dare specific opinions that go in opposition to the leftist panel.

The Challenge: Collegiate Faculty’s new mascot emblem and its removing of non secular references from its motto.
It’s becoming that the brand new emblem for the elite Collegiate Faculty resembles a hammer and sickle at first look (“You mascot-a be kiddin’!” Feb. 2).
On a more in-depth look, there's a shady character whose face is blocked by a hat pulled low. Not an upbeat, inspiring picture for youngsters. It's extra like the key seal of a darkish, cave-dwelling Gothic sect.
The enlightened progressives who took years to create this grasp woke work have to be the oldsters who elected Mayor Invoice de Blasio twice and Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
It makes me surprise why dad and mom who can afford $60,000 tuition would topic their kids to such poisonous fumes.

Collegiate Faculty has given each God and the Dutchman the heave-ho.
So how did they change them? Properly, they united a few of their elite minds to deal with the issue.
The 400-page doc these geniuses put collectively proposes a brand new picture: It seems to be precisely as you'll think about London’s Jack the Ripper, prowling the again streets seeking victims. That's actually inspiring.

I discover it completely becoming that the wealthy, privileged, overpriced and now woke Collegiate Faculty’s new mascot is a determine hiding its identification.
It’s definitely not Diogenes looking for an trustworthy man.
