...she, and other comedians would be “more offensive than they have ever been before.”
It's a shame she didn't promise to be funny instead. Guess it makes sense to set achievable goals though.

MODERATORS
This is a thing by far-right Jews now. Shapiro does it too. He talks about how Bernie Sanders isn't a 'real' Jew.
Pretty sure this has quietly gone on for a long time among circles - questioning if one is truly "jewish" enough (sighs)
The difference is they've been emboldened to these claims loudly, when previously it was considered poor taste to air that dirty laundry in public. It really speaks to the class of the person making the claims if nothing else.
The "true Scotsman" knows no bounds.
who?
Genuinely baffled that she is still somewhat relevant.
Is she?
I mean, this is a discussion of an article someone wrote about her…
Granted, but blogs post about irrelevant junk all the time.
Yeah no
Stop giving this trash a microphone.
She isn't very funny for a Jew.
Also, she isn’t very funny.
I'm interested in how she knows what "kind" of jew he is. Does she attend his synagog in Ukraine? Is it because he's been working on Shabbat? I think she's just jealous because he's the better Jewish comedian.
Why not just retire and relax with all your money?
She has genuine mental health issues, and has previously suffered a traumatic brain injury.
People tend to ignore these obvious answers when talking about her or someone like Kanye. They’re genuinely mentally ill people who need help, and it’s in part the media’s fault for pushing these stories and goading them on.
Makes sense
Damn, this bitch still alive?
Well what do you know? I never thought Rosanne Barr would be able to get another laugh out of me. Its a new direction but I will admit that I'm laughing.
Lame 😒
She so crazy
She's such a loonie loser
Roseanne Barr is a fat pig, but not a good one.
I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt a few weeks ago when she made the comment that the Holocaust never happened or whatever it was. 1) she's a comedian and has always been a bit edgy. 2) she made the comment on Theo Von's podcast, another comedian. 3) the clip that was posted on Reddit could've easily been taken out of context (see #2). 4) She's always had a bit of a dry delivery. But this is getting old. At one time she was one of the biggest comedians in the world and hat a hit TV show for years. I can see wanting to get back into the spotlight. As they say on show business, "any publicity is good publicity." This is probably her way of trying to be (somewhat) relevant.
