Well, I see now that Professor Shapiro has been purged from the faculty of Georgetown Law. Po-mo progressive fascism strikes again. Meanwhile, Whoopie Goldberg has been suspended from "The View" for her anti-Semitic Holocaust rant—no doubt to deprive conservatives of some particularly ripe low-hanging fruit. For I doubt that any true progressive was disturbed by the content of her screed. After all, it came straight out of the intersectionality handbook. Still, loathsome as she is, those of us who defend Illya Shapiro must also defend Whoopie Goldberg. She has a right to be loathsome, after all, and other people have said, on the air, similarly disgusting things about Jews, conservatives, parents, etc. and gotten away with it.
