A podcast hosted by comedian Theo Von which featured a discussion with Roseanne Barr on misinformation policies on social media platforms was blacklisted by YouTube.
The irony!
YouTube said the episode was banned because of “hate speech,” that old chestnut!
However, the only comment Barr made which could be construed as “hate speech” was sarcastic.
before being blacklisted, Von and Roseanne Barr spoke about the 2020 election, in which Barr pretended she was glad about social media misinformation policies, which YouTube frequently engages in.
The podcast is now available on Twitter.
Watch:
Roseanne began the exchange, saying:
“I’m glad that they did set up all these guidelines so that we’re only allowed to speak the truth. And the truth is that Biden got 81 million votes by winning 36 counties. And that is just incredible, it really really is.”
“And of these 81 million supporters who gave him more votes than any president has ever gotten before… I’m just glad that they were careful to make sure that nobody could ever detract from that proven truth. That they mandated that that was the truth and that nobody could say ‘well, what about -‘no!” she said.
Theo Von replies: “So the government made it a mandate?”
RB: “YouTube did, and so did all the social media.”
TV: “Oh, so you can’t even speak on that on those platforms.”
RB: “No, you can’t say, you know…”
TV: “That the election was rigged.”
RB: “Yeah, that’s all a lie; the election was not rigged. 36 counties can give you 81 million votes. That’s a fact.”
TV: “So it wasn’t rigged?”
RB: “Of course not! 36 counties have 81 million people in them. See? That’s the truth. And don’t you dare say anything against it, or you’ll be off YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and all the other ones. Because there’s such a thing as the truth and facts, and we have to stick to it.”
TV: “It’s scary.”
RB: “And that is the truth. And you know, nobody died in the Holocaust either. That’s the truth.”

If you really believe that China Joe got 81 million legal votes then you aren’t all there.
It was sarcasm.
I love Roseanne! A woman for our times. She gives me courage. Thank you Roseanne, you are truly a person of amazing intelligence. And, I’m sorry that you get so little respect, so totally not right. Really sad that the indoctrinated young woman will not know who you really are- again, a woman of our times. And, she still makes you laugh. h**g in there Roseanne, I know there are millions of us who get it.
Everyone should stop using Youtube and all Google products immediately
I saw Rosanne get “discovered” when she opened for Sam Kinison and Jerry Seinfeld in the mid 80’s-the “problem” was the maxi-pad, adhesive side UP….
