Whoopie-doo, the holocaust— is she for real? Real Scooby-doo mystery… She says Jews aren’t a race, yet there’s a trace of heritage left after the atrocity that attempted to wipe out the lineage. How does she live with herself?! The problem is the uncontrollable yap, the lack of thinking people… no one allowed to discuss, ask questions, probe the truth and consequences of out of control chaos. Therefore the proverbial blind, deaf, dumb and lame use their faculties and they fall, get run over without accountability, sensibility, morality and common sense. And they are less accountable or not at all as they throw rocks or throw others under the bus. 2/1/2022

Unfortunately, we are seeing more and more of this "The problem is the uncontrollable yap, the lack of thinking people… no one allowed to discuss, ask questions, probe the truth and consequences of out of control chaos."

Thanks for this one, Kim. These days, people just say whatever floats into their without thinking. If they don't say it, they tweet it... 'Course, Whoopie's a real expert on the Holocaust too, isn't she? Knows her subject so well. She's my go-to authority on Auschwitz and Dachau, by the way. ~ In good hands with the Whoopster

Fame certainly does not make one an expert. The holocaust was an atrocity not to be looked over. Never again!

Very well said -- the problem is, people talk, speak nonsense, but there are enough echoes out there to give them legs. Truth often falls victim to personal predilections. Excellent, valuable writing. Joe.
