Roseanne Barr Was Chastised For Claiming That "Nobody Died In The Holocaust"

Roseanne Barr has been chastised yet again for making divisive remarks regarding the Holocaust.

During a recent episode of the podcast “This Past Weekend with Theo Von,” the beleaguered comic asserted that “nobody died in the Holocaust.”

“That is correct. “It should happen,” Barr, 70, told Theo Von.

“Six million Jews should die right now because they are the source of all the world’s problems.” But that never came to pass. It never occurred.”

Von, 43, whose podcast is notorious for stirring up controversy, claimed Barr’s comments were “sarcastic.”

“This Roseanne Barr video was sarcasm, people. A snippet from a long sarcastic outburst she had throughout our conversation. “Can we no longer recognize sarcasm?” Tuesday, he tweeted.

“She is a mensch and one of the funniest people I’ve ever met,” Von said.

In the midst of the criticism over Barr’s words, her son, Jake Pentland, defended her.

“We are embarrassed that people are stupid enough to not recognize Roseanne is being sarcastic,” he told TMZ on Tuesday.

“We find it amusing that people are so ignorant. Let’s stop with the clickbait, and instead focus on America’s major issues. Morons concentrate on out-of-context clips.”

In response to the viral podcast segment, social media users had a lot to say.

“There is NOT ONE DAMN THING that is even close to funny in Roseanne Barr’s vile outrageous LIES,” one person remarked.

“I’ve gazed into the eyes of a Holocaust survivor and listened to her describe her ordeal… “Roseanne Barr should check herself into the looney bin,” said another.

Another commenter chastised Von for giving Barr a platform.

“[He] appears to have let Roseanne Barr spew Holocaust denial nonsense on his podcast.” He’s been attempting to explain it with full context footage, but I watched that one as well and it didn’t help, so I’m not sure what he was thinking,” the user added.

Her namesake show was canceled by ABC in 2018 when she compared former President Barack Obama’s adviser Valerie Jarrett to an ape and said George Soros was a Nazi sympathizer.
