Kanye West

Love when antisemitism is considered being a “free thinker”

That's a weird thing to love.

Anywho, I'm not one of those dudes who reflexively calls any kind of criticism bigotry - especially when the core points are never engaged. Just comes off sounding like Uncle Leo from Seinfeld.

I feel bad that he's mentally ill and that we have people that are entertained by his delusional musings. He has enablers that DGAF about his mental state and platforms that seek to amplify it.

Yep--this shit has been going on for 4+ years. It's pretty gross that people are willing to amplify mental illness for clicks. At this point you can't feign the whole "we didn't know he would say that!" shit. People know they'll get max social media interaction and shine.

I don't even know what he did.

Kanye is fascinating, and if you watch his long form interviews (say on Tucker), you can clearly tell he's lucid.

I share Jason Whitlock's opinion - Kanye is in a battle with fame... sometimes he's right on the money, sometimes he backslides, and there are a lot of people in his life trying to take advantage of him. But I appreciate that he's a freethinker & challenges the Current Thing narrative.

I don't feel bad for him, per se, but the vast majority of the time, he's more on the money than X large corporation's PR department.

Tucker also left the most batshit stuff on the cutting room floor.

Watch the Disturbing Kanye Interview Clips That Tucker Carlson Didn’t Put on Air

Motherboard obtained footage of Ye making bigoted statements about Jewish people and bizarre claims about "fake children," as well as describing visions of "kinetic energy" cities sent to him by God.

If anyone has watched the 3 part documentary about him on Netflix, it's pretty striking to see how much this guy has degenerated. That director also admitted he left stuff on the cutting room floor because he felt bad showing his friend battling mental illness.

Apparently he claims there is an over representation of Jews in the media, finance, and government considering they make up 2% of the US population.

 

[KidsSeeGhosts]

Talking like this is probably the best thing he could've done for his political aspirations though

Never understood the antisemitism thing - at all. My thought is the ideology lingers from WW2.

I IDGAF much who someone is, or where they came from. Although I can't say I'd be super comfortable in many parts of the world. Middle East perhaps??

But antisemitism in this country (within the US borders) is both fascinating and confusing to me personally.

Absolutely insane. Deserves worse than what he's getting. Adidas is tanking their stock to maintain a relationship. At this rate, they may not have enough cash to pay their college apparel endorsements.

Edit: In a new development, Ye was dropped by Adidas.

What is ye and what did the retarded rapper do? Besides pretending to look angry all the time but instead looking like a black tadpole.

 

[BIG TONE SOPRANO]

Do you feel bad for him? Or is getting what he deserves?

He likes Trump so I LOVE him

I think it was more the going defcon 3 on Jews or whatever he said

Didn’t realize threatening a religious group is just good ol’ fashioned “criticism.” This thread is enlightening. Thanks for the education.

"Threatening?"

 

[djw004]

So...I believe there's no one that is as much of a genius as he is that has simultaneously squandered so many opportunities to regain a platform.

Also. Voting for him 2024.

"Threatening?"

What is going “death con 3 on Jewish people”?

 

[2010sarenevercomingback]

What is going “death con 3 on Jewish people”?

A misspelling.

Is our country going super-literal on the grammar & malapropisms of rappers now?

It's all a misunderstanding that the MSM is taking off and running with. They're twisting his words to discredit him and make MAGA look bad ahead of the elections!!!

You take this as Kanye saying he's about to load up his crew & do a drive-by on a synagogue? Is that how you arrive at "threatening"?

I've heard dozens of people say they're "going defcon..." on any number of subjects, and it has always meant harsh speech.

All I said was that it’s threatening.
