Roseanne Barr Makes Antisemitic Remarks About Jewish People: “Inbreeders”

Despite the ensuing consequences of her offensive comments, Roseanne Barr has made even more in a recent appearance on Bill Maher’s Club Random. While discussing families and offspring of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, Barr made a snide note about Jewish people, calling them inbreeders.

She referenced the Jews, saying, “I believe that something affects you after thousands of years of inbreeding that DNA thing is different from other humans, except the Jews, which also inbreed,” she said to a bewildered Maher.

Barr wrote it off as a joke

After an awkward silence, Barr quickly salvaged the situation—or so she thought, with a joke. “No, I’m kidding. And so do people in Kentucky. That was my joke. But no, the pharaohs and that line, they’re really super inbred with their DNA,” she told Maher, who was visibly unimpressed.

Barr made another comment about being a “trans man” after Maher told her she has “more balls than anybody.”

“No you’re not— you’re not a man. You were never a man,” he promptly rebuked her. She faced backlash months ago for denying the holocaust and saying, “6 million Jews should die right now because they cause all the problems in the world,” on another podcast.

Barr gets canceled

Although Barr apologized for her racist comment against former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett— whom she called a cross-breed between the Muslim Brotherhood and a Planet of the Apes actor, ABC decided to cancel the Roseanne reboot. The show’s consulting producer, Wanda Sykes, and the network’s president, Channing Dungey, condemned Barr’s remarks on social media while confirming that she had been kicked off the show.

Barr felt heartbroken by the damage caused and expressed her regret during an interview on Sean Hannity’s Fox News Channel show. “It cost me everything. I wish I worded it better,” she said. However, she did not apologize to Jarrett on air until Sean insisted. She obliged, saying she never intended to hurt Jarrett and was unaware of her race. “I’m sorry that you feel harm and hurt, I never meant that. I never meant to hurt anybody,” Barr explained.
