Chuck Woolery’s apparently been doing some research recently, and he’s pretty shocked by what he’s discovered:

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

— Chuck Woolery (@chuckwoolery) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

That is indeed pretty shocking, considering it’s not quite accurate.

@chuckwoolery<\/a> How about: They were not jewish. As in: not at all.

— Thomas Ley (@thomas_ley) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

No Lenin wasn't. Marx's father converted to Lutheranism before Karl was born. Karl was an atheist. He came to his Communism via his atheism. https:\/\/t.co\/Z54Oqi5o9F<\/a>

— Jonah Goldberg (@JonahNRO) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

@JonahNRO<\/a> Yes, but genealogically Marx was Jewish.

— Gen. Dumas (@paulhue) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

True. But if every Lutheran-raised, Jew-hating, atheist still counts as a Jew, well… then that's a point of view too. https:\/\/t.co\/SmPIx1UCwN<\/a>

— Jonah Goldberg (@JonahNRO) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p> An interesting point of view, to say the least.

Anyway, needless to say, Woolery came under some pretty heavy fire for his tweet:

@chuckwoolery<\/a> What happened to you? This isn't the Chuck Woolery I remember. Even ten years ago you were better than what you've become.

@chuckwoolery<\/a> Believe it or not, you're an anti-Semite.

@chuckwoolery<\/a> Pump the brakes Chuck.

@chuckwoolery<\/a> Nuh-uh. Also, so?

— Cody Johnston (@drmistercody) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

@chuckwoolery<\/a> Apropos of …? Why in the world would you post this?

— B. Joy Collins (@suslelou) May 30, 2017<\/a><\/p>

@chuckwoolery<\/a> Your point?

@chuckwoolery<\/a> What is your point?

— AdamAnnapolis (@adamannapolis) May 29, 2017<\/a><\/p>

@adamannapolis<\/a> @chuckwoolery<\/a> He's just admitting to us how ignorant he is. It helps explain his foolish views.
