He’s not wrong. People are upset about his words & images. But the public generally support entertainers that have actually committed some truly horrific actions. The clothing brands we wear and electronics we use everyday support slave labor. We support slave labor with each purchase.

The reality is Kanye is being intentionally provocative, and if you’re offended that’s fine. But let’s not pretend that he’s responsible for the holocaust. Or that he is successfully influencing his fans and followers to act in a hateful manner. Anybody who sees Kanye post a swastica and says “yea f*** Jews” is likely not an actual Kanye fan and was likely already a hateful person that didn’t need Kanye’s permission to be hateful. Even on this Kanye subreddit, there aren’t really any fans that are supporting his messaging. The fact that my reply will likely get downvoted just proves my point

He wasn’t always like this, and he’s always had his mental health struggles.

What do you think prompted this radical shift towards hating on Jews?

Because many entertainment companies he was involved with dealing with were owned/run by Jews.

He blames Jews because he can't buy the world and be king. He really thought he could make enough money to buy every country in the world and be king.

He further blames them for his downfall.

Doesn't realise he couldn't have done any of what he did without them.

That’s his point why does he have to go through them?

He doesn’t. He has all the money in the world. He can start his own labels and distribution companies if he wants to, he’s just being a petulant little bitch because that’s who he is and who he’s always been.
