Recently, Whoopi Goldberg doubled down on her harmful, revisionist claims that the Holocaust was "not about race" and was a matter of "white-on-white violence."
Whoopi, here are some things you should know: #WhoopiGoldberg#Holocaust

In Mein Kampf — and many other letters and documents — Hitler made it perfectly clear that he viewed the Jews as an inferior race that a) was trying to disguise itself as a religion and b) was trying to "annihilate the non-Jewish races." #WhoopiGoldberg#Holocaust

There were other non-racial groups targeted by the Nazis, including the LGBTQ+ community, gypsies, and people with mental and physical disabilities. But the 6 million Jews that were killed were killed due to Nazi racism. #WhoopiGoldberg#Holocaust

Anti-Israel and antisemitic groups and activists are pouncing on this poll, which has some results that may seem troubling at first.
But in reality, the poll has several major flaws that we will highlight in the following thread. jewishelectorateinstitute.org/wp-content/upl…
First off, the size of the poll is a huge issue.
Working with a sample size of 800 is not adequate when trying to discern nation-level trends for a population of 6-7 million.
For comparison, when trying to find nation-level sentiment with approval ratings or election polling for Presidents, the industry standard is to have a sample size of 2000. This poll doesn't even come close to half of that.
