Here is a thread from someone who is apparently outraged that people are reacting to Chuck Woolery’s comment by referring to him as a “game show host”.
Believe it or not. Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin were both Jewish. I was shocked to find, most of the original Soviet Communists were Jewish

So Chuck Woolery, if you didn’t know, is pretty far-right. And today he said something, um, ill-advised. 1/13 https://t.co/wzTmcanb6B

A lot of folks are making fun of him because he’s a game show host. That’s a terrible thing to do. Why? 3/13

On the scale of horrible behavior on Twitter, reminding people that a certain deep thinker earned his living telling people “we’ll be back in 2 & 2!” doesn’t register terribly high.
I’d also suggest that if this person had experienced parts of his family being murdered simply for being Jews, he might go a wee bit stronger than characterizing Woolery’s words as “ill advised”.
