On Friday, The View’s Sunny Hostin hit a new low, bashing deceased Queen Elizabeth II’s Britain, calling it “genocidal”  and “built on the backs of black and brown people.”

Fox News reports:

Hostin also went so far as to agree with a vile tweet that claimed Elizabeth II was the head of a “thieving, raping, genocidal empire” and advised her successor, King Charles III, to make up for this history by giving “reparations” to all the nations colonized by the British Empire.

While reminiscing on the life of passing of the Queen, Hostin noted that she was once a big fan of the British monarchy, though she has since rethought her affections because of the Crown’s history of colonialism.

“I got caught up in the pomp and circumstance of it all as well. I wanted to see the changing of the guards. I wanted to see everything. I wanted to meet the Queen because I think we all love glam and pageantry,” the co-host admitted. Though she added a caveat. “And I think though we can mourn the Queen and not the empire,” she stated.

“Because if you really think about what the monarchy, um, was built on, it was built on the backs of black and brown people,” Hostin explained, before condemning the crown Elizabeth II wore during her reign.

“She wore a crown with pillaged stones from India and Africa, and now what you are seeing, at least in the black communities that I’m a part of, they want reparations,” she continued.
