    Interesting how he has a propensity to identify with Nazism, yet the commentators quoted all use “antisemitism”. The conflation is not unreasonable, but stood out to me.

    I’m not a Nazi

    Says guy who sells Nazi shirts, directly stated he was a Nazi, multiple times and has run anti-semitic rants for 3+ years

    No Kanye, you’re a Nazi, now and forever. I liked the old Kanye, not this new Kanye. Always in the news Kanye.

    If he dedicated the rest of his wealth to fighting antisemitism, if he lent his incredible fame to reversing the horrible legacy of racist, chauvinist violence, if he really gave a shit and fixed himself and worked his ass off for years, then maybe, some people might begin to forgive him.

    But dong a bunch of Nazi shit and then saying you’re not a Nazi, is Nazi shit. This is meaningless and pathetic, cowardly behavior.

        Even decades later, it pisses me off Hitler shot himself in his bunker as opposed to getting to have every person in Europe personaly beat him to a bloody pulp.

        Kanye has legit bipolar I or schizoaffective disorder. There was a moment after his mother passed where the guy’s entire personality changed and his thoughts became really disorganized, which was likely the first episode of whatever he’s still dealing with. My point is you’re correct, Kanye’s not approaching this as a coherent ideology and

          I do not buy that he wasn’t always a nazi, just that when he takes his meds he remembers he has to hide being a nazi becuase it costs him money. This is another example of him going back on his meds and realizing he just made it harder for himself to earn money, again. His mom was someone who actually tried to look after him and make sure he took his meds, rather than trying to bilk him for every penny.

          I’m Bipolar II and I’ve never once accidentally said “Man I sure do love Nazis” or put official merch of a Swastika.

          Sure he’s crazy, but bipolar doesn’t explain it.

          At this point, I no longer care. It doesn’t matter how legitimate his excuses may be. He’s spread and popularized enough hatred that I don’t think he deserves sympathy anymore.
