Im not sure referring to the subject as a "conspiracy theorist" in the first sentence of the lede is a good idea. I have no doubt that he is one, but that doesnt seem so important that he should be described as such outright. I think its best to move that info into the 'views' section.

A recent blog by Roberts includes pretty flat-out Holocaust Denialism: https://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2019/05/15/the-lies-about-world-war-ii/
The post includes most of the common tropes: Hitler was a good guy who was forced into war by Britain and France and mean Treaty of Versaille. Auschwitz and other concentration camps were work camps, not death camps. Crematoriums were only used for disposing of bodies of those dead of "natural causes" or disease.
Seems like it's worth mentioning in his wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.39.140.40 ( talk • contribs)
In the Charges and counter-charges of conspiracy theorizing §, Delamaide is cited for assigning the label 'bona fide conspiracy theorist' to Roberts. However, Delamaide's article provides no support for that assertion and, in fact, the paragraphs following that assertion provide evidence Roberts is not a conspiracy theorist. Can we eliminate Delamaide from this §? Humanengr ( talk) 04:36, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
In an article regarding a controversial Florida law banning discussion of race in classrooms that was recently struck down for violating the 1st Amendment by a US federal district judge, Roberts wrote "One hundred years ago Novoa, Rechek, and Judge Walker would have been hung off the nearest tree limb by enraged citizens. But the erosion of white confidence has taken a toll. Today the white majority accepts what is happening to them, hoping that they will be the last sent to the camps."
