The View Elitists Say They're Above You Because They Attend the Opera

While insisting that they’re not snowflakes, the liberal elitists of ABC’s The View spent yet another show whining about someone criticizing Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime performance, this time it was former Real Housewives star Jill Zarin. On Tuesday’s episode, their animosity boiled over as they lashed out toward average Americans for not wanting to be multi-lingual. They also suggested they were better than average Americans because they attended the opera where Italian and French were sung. Co-host Sunny Hostin, whose family brought slaves to Bad Bunny’s home of Puerto Rico, lashed out at those who dared not to like the all-Spanish-language performance. According to Hostin, you needed to shut up because the Macarena was very popular at one point (despite the fact the lyrics didn’t play a role in its popularity) Hostin convulsed wildly while mocking those who liked doing the dance. Of course, she singled out Carnival cruise enjoyers: Well, you know what, I'm sorry, everybody was down with the Macarena when it came out and they were all on the Carnival cruises and they were doing all of this and they’re doing all of this and everybody was fine with it!   Sunny Hostin says you should shut up about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl in Spanish because the Macarena was a popular once. pic.twitter.com/MrE5El76MZ — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) February 10, 2026   She went on to decry how average Americans were not multi-lingual and she seemed to embrace replacement theory, something The View had insisted wasn’t happening: You know, I think what's so interesting to me is, you know, this country seems to be one of the only countries in the world that is so proud of being mono lingual and not being able to communicate in more than one language! And, the fact of the matter is, in about 20 years multi-ethnic people will be the majority in this country! So, if you don't understand Spanish, maybe start taking a little Duo Lingo course! Co-host Joy Behar was in full agreement and proclaimed American have “a misplaced set of values” because average Americans didn’t attend the opera like they did. “These are not exactly the same people that go to the opera where they speak Italian and French,” she chided.   The View lashes out at Bad Bunny critics for being uncultured plebs who only like speaking English and don't go to the opera: SUNNY HOSTIN: This country seems to be one of the only countries in the world that is so proud of being mono lingual and not being able to communicate in… pic.twitter.com/VIVdOUAAtV — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) February 10, 2026   Toward the end of the segment, moderator Whoopi Goldberg went out of her way to scold those average Americans who dared to express criticisms of Bad Bunny’s performance. Moreover, despite most of the stadium not dancing, she insisted those with a negative opinion were a loud minority of viewers who didn’t have jobs: The truth of the matter is, you're not a large majority. And that's the mistake we make. You are not a large majority. You're loud, but you're not the largest majority. (…) Those are not the majority of people. The majority of people are doing the work they need to do to take care of their families.   "You are not a large majority" Whoopi scolds them. "You're loud, but you're not the largest majority." Adding: "You are the most snowflakian people. Everything bothers you." pic.twitter.com/0514Vlvhvh — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) February 10, 2026   The entire segment was predicated on The View having an unhealthy reaction to someone else expressing an opinion they didn’t like; but according to Goldberg, those people were the snowflakes who needed to “grow up”: They are not snowflakian because real people don't have time to be snowflakes. Okay? Y'all, on the other hand, you are the most snowflakian people I’ve ever seen. Everything bothers you. ‘Oh no, that’s not the true - that's not the real history. We shouldn't tell the truth about -- People would be mad at us.’ Grow up. “It is a wonderful term because people always say, ‘oh, you're such snowflakes.’ It ain't us, babe. No, no, no, it ain't us,” Goldberg huffed at their critics.   Sunny Hostin was having a normal one today. pic.twitter.com/M5mIZEdMfi — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) February 10, 2026   Sure, Whoopi.

JOY BEHAR: These are not exactly the same people that go to the opera where they speak Italian and French. But let’s not go there. The country, in my opinion, has a misplaced set of values. (…) 11:17:50 a.m. Eastern WHOOPI GOLDBERG: If you didn't get anything, that's okay. All those things are okay. The truth of the matter is, you're not a large majority. And that's the mistake we make. You are not a large majority. You're loud, but you're not the largest majority. BEHAR: Who are you talking to? GOLDBERG: I'm talking to the people who say, ‘well, this is not an American thing. This is not this. You shouldn't be doing this.’ Those are not the majority of people. The majority of people are doing the work they need to do to take care of their families. They are not snowflakian because real people don't have time to be snowflakes. Okay? Y'all, on the other hand, you are the most snowflakian people I’ve ever seen. Everything bothers you. ‘Oh no, that’s not the true - that's not the real history. We shouldn't tell the truth about -- People would be mad at us.’ Grow up. BEHAR: You've coined a term: Snowflakian. I like it. GOLDBERG: It is a wonderful term because people always say, ‘oh, you're such snowflakes.’ It ain't us, babe. No, no, no, it ain't us. We'll be right back.
