Fox News host Greg Gutfeld sparked outrage when he compared people using the word “Nazi” to “the Blacks” normalizing the n-word.

In a Fox News segment on Tuesday, Gutfeld and Fox News host Lisa “Kennedy” Montgomery discussed normalizing the word Nazi by repeatedly using the word the same way Black people reclaimed the n-word.

“This is why the criticism doesn’t matter to us when you call us Nazis. Nazi this and Nazi that,” Gutfeld said.

“You know what? I’ve said this before, we need to learn from the Blacks,” Gutfeld said. “The way they were able to remove the power from the N-word by using it. So from now on it’s: What up, my Nazi? Hey, what up, my Nazi? Hey, what’s hanging, my Nazi?”

Kennedy joked, “Nazi, please.”

Gutfeld responded, “Thank god you did a hard ‘i’ there.”

Following the segment, viewers flooded Gutfeld’s social media pages.

“These quotes, even if said in jest, would destroy the careers of any other journalist on any other mainstream national media platform,” wrote Zeteo founder Mehdi Hasan. “But Fox doesn’t employ journalists and doesn’t have any journalistic (or decency) standards.”

“We’ve officially gotten to the point where fox news commentators are comfortable calling themselves Nazis,” wrote conservative writer Cathy Young.

Newsone.com journalist Zack Linly wrote: “They’re not journalists over at Fox News; they are schoolyard bullies. And I mean, like, pre-school. Maybe kindergarten.”

Linly added, “Grow up, my Nazis!”
