Roseanne Barr denounced the word “f-g” and declared she’s “queer” in a bizarre video rant posted to YouTube on Sunday.

“The word f-g is a really hateful word, isn’t it? Especially when it’s one gay calling another gay guy that. … Have you ever been in the middle of one of them hate marriages? It’s like, wait a minute, we’re not supposed to say that word. How come you’re saying that word? … Oh, I just can’t say the word. Well, I can when I’m in the house, but I can’t say it outside the house. OK, I get your rules, but it is a hateful word and you should get rid of it. Get rid of it being spoken.”

The 66-year-old actress, who was fired from her eponymous ABC series after making anti-Semitic and racist comments last year, then declared that she’s queer.

“All that LGBTQ stuff, let me just be real, I put the Q in LGBTQ because I’m as queer as two motherf–kers. I’m queer,” Barr said. “I’m alien. I don’t belong here with all these people. They make no sense. They are very queer and that makes me a queer, I guess. I did put the Q in it, bye.”
