Roseanne was being sarcastic. Here’s the point she was trying to make:

If you believe that Biden got 81 million votes, then you’ll believe that nobody died in the Holocaust (i.e., you’ll believe anything).

Her sin was that she picked a very sensitive topic in her comparison.
And then she said it in a somewhat confusing way.

Roseanne will pay for her error here. But at least she didn’t say anything about blacks, gays, or Muslims. That would have been fatal.

“Like for the real truth that, you know, and I’m glad that they did set up all these guidelines so that we only are allowed to speak the truth,”

Barr said — with alleged sarcasm — during the podcast.

“And the truth is that Biden got 81 million votes by winning 36 counties. And that is just incredible. It really, really is.”

Barr later continued,

“And that is the truth. And nobody died in the Holocaust either. That’s the truth.”


IOW, she is saying that Biden winning the 2020 election is as true as the fact that nobody died in the Holocaust.

The Social Media clowns are too stupid to understand sarcasm.

I am wondering if 1) this explains her comments, 2) off her meds or 3) crazier than a sh^t house rat.

I'll go with #2.

About one in five women ages 40 to 59 and nearly one in four women ages 60 and over used antidepressants in the last 30 days during 2015 to 2018, according to the latest data from the National Center for Health Statistics. Among women ages 18 to 39, the figure was about one in 10. Among men, 8.4% of those ages 40 to 59 and 12.8% of those 60 and older used antidepressants in the last 30 days, according to the NCHS data.

Barr’s son Jake Pentland defended his mom in a statement to TMZ. “We are embarrassed that people are stupid enough not to recognize Roseanne is being sarcastic..."

And we're embarrassed that you're stupid enough not to recognize Roseanne was speaking her truth.

Sarcasm. If people are too stupid to grasp nuance it’s their problem. Free speech matters.

Is your comment directed at Roseanne’s son Jake Pentland or at me?

“Are people really not smart enough ..”

Things are taken out of context deliberately. I like Barr. She sticks it to the libs and they hate her.

“She’s off her meds again.”

Either you didn’t read the article or you believe Biden got 81 million votes.

If it was sarcasm, she can get a new network TV show and walk it back.

“Don’t be ridiculous, Roseanne. Of course they did.”

Read the article. The sarcasm is so obvious even 3rd graders would see it!

She was being sarcastic. I can’t see how people didn’t pick up on that.

She was giving another example after the one she used that we are supposed to believe that Joe Biden got 81 million votes.

People always want to believe the worst anymore. They can’t detect sarcasm or humor.

Roseanne, the day of public speaking is over.

Whether sarcastic or not, she needs to change her dosage.

Ronald Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, said that Barr’s comments were “Nazism in its purest form.”

Right, "Nazism in its purest form" was all about people saying dumb stuff.

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


For those that only read the headline..................
