 My view on a statement like Rav Miller's is that whatever happens we are supposed to take a lesson out of it. When a tragedy happens and we say it may have been because of this that or the other thing it is simply to take a lesson from it for personal improvement. It is not to lay fault.

Would like to hear some thoughts - what makes a racist/bigoted attack worse than an identical non-racist attack? If someone punches me in the face because I’m Jewish or black, or simply because they’re bored, why does it make a difference? In both cases if I got my face punched I feel the exact same pain.

And if you believe there’s a difference, is there a difference between a racist and bigoted attack?

I have some thoughts about why not all attacks are equal but haven’t got a chance to think it through fully and come up with an eloquent explanation.

You can put it that way.

Because hate is a constant motivator to do more crime?

https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/whoopi-goldberg-jewish-american-princess-fried-chicken-cookbook-1993-resurfaces

Quote
Goldberg’s agent at the time, Brad Cafarelli, came out in strong defense of his client when it all went down, stating, "Maybe (the critics) are not aware that Whoopi is Jewish, so she is certainly not anti-Semitic."
. . .
"I am a Jewish-American princess," she told the newspaper. "That’s probably what bothers people most. It’s not my problem people are uncomfortable with the fact that I’m Jewish."

Lying about being Jewish in order to explain away her antisemitism...

I don’t think that’s the issue. IMHO the problem is the fear that the rest of the group has to constantly live with, knowing they might be next.

She didn't lie about being Jewish. She claims to have Jewish ancestry.

Umm, both of those quotes were claims to be Jewish, not references to Jewish ancestry.

it’s a lie by glaring omission

"My family is Jewish, Buddhist, Baptist and Catholic – none of which I subscribe to, by the way, as I don't believe in man-made religions," she explained, adding that she adopted the stage last name Goldberg from a "Jewish ancestor."

Interesting you brought that up because you need 0/1024 to be a Jew.   :)
