TL;DR Summary

Comedian Roseanne Barr, whose comeback show was canceled in 2018 due to racist tweets, has made alarming comments on a podcast, stating that "nobody died in the Holocaust" and suggesting that six million Jews should die. It is unclear whether she genuinely believes the Holocaust didn't happen or if she was making an abhorrent comment about online speech.
