Do u believe that Kanye West is a racist ? 🤔 ⚖️ ⚖️ ⚖️
Greetings ladies and gentlemen. How are you doing today. Now as some of you may already know, Kanye, or Ye, is in another controversy. He talked about the Jewish establishment in the entertainment industry. This has been a rather common sentiment over the past few years with a few. Especially during the reign of Donald Trump. Of course the media will brand it was antisemitism. But are we not supposed to hold accountable those who have been known to manipulate or abuse the system. You tell me. I noticed that on a lot of the YouTube pages there are a whole lot of people on Kanye's side. And this is coming from Blacks and Whites. And everyone else in between. Could he has said it in a different way ? Of course he could have but he didn't. What do you think about Ye's latest comments. Do you really believe he is a racist. Best answer wins. The floor is yours SW. 🙂🌞
He's a rich person who should try to buy some brain cells
Just like when he said a few years ago that slavery of blacks was a choice, that black people chose to be slaves. He says stupid shit and people will stand by him no matter what
@Zonuss yeah, I didn't touch on it but the legacy of slavery is a big one. Jim crow, separate but equal etc.
Whites had it bad too but blacks were at the bottom of the barrel along with natives, and the enduring legacies of these systemic discriminations make their degrees of suffering worse than the average experience of a poor white in America
@deadgerbil yes, we were discussing America, however the term ‘white privilege’ is a specific stand alone idea and is applied to white people regardless of nationality and so my criticism of the term was based on that application of the term. I wasn’t intending to twist what you said :)
And indeed. People criticise just Hitler and ignore, for example, the genocidal Bolshevik state next door that helped create the conditions for Hitlers rise, because the idea of Hitler being the ultimate evil is part of the foundational mythos of the 20th century. There is bias because people are more interested in presenting history in a way that fits that narrative, than in a more complicated, accurate way that would point to the fact that all groups and ideas have had their merits and faults.

Racist against who? I don’t think he knows who he’s against or with.
I think he speaks before thinking about the weight of his words and Platform's attention.
A cruddy ole time spoken description of Hollywood and Major Media Mogul giants i.e. NBC, CBS etc..was that they were all owned and/or ran primarily by High level Jewish people. I believe that was what Kanye was attempting to nod or elude to. I (feel) his intent was to make a declarative statement of tearing the Mainstream Media down.
I'm not entirely convinced Kanye was speaking litterally of a genocide of a particular race of people.
@pianoplayingsteve They are GOD'S Chosen People and have had the most amount of genocidal attacks and still they flourish. 🤗 My Lord and Savior was a Jew.
@Zonuss The fact that other bigoted people share his views does not lend them legitimacy anymore than the fact that the existence of multiple racist groups justifies anti-Black views.
@Harmonium1923 Do you believe that people should be equally as outraged when another ethnic group or demographic is discriminated against or threatened. 🙂
Yes. I don't care for him for a lot of reasons. And I wish he'd get better help for his BPD, he's dangerous to so many people being untreated and speaking and engaging in social media in the public spotlight.
I'm only sure of a couple of things about him. He is an egotistical, self-centered a-hole and I got that impression of him immediately after he came on the scene. Since that time you couldn't pay me enough to care about him enough to listen to anything he says or does.
@DDonde Blacks are the real Hebrews. Everybody knows this. But that's not the point. If you watch his interview with Pierce Morgan and Chris Cuomo...he explained in clear details who he was talking about specifically.
Kanye is not credible. He has no integrity. He never admits fault and his mouth is reckless while his mind is narcissisticly unstable writting narratives where he is a king and a victim at the same time. He is talented and he is rich. This does not make his words somehow more valuable but his status does make his words more damaging. There is a bit of truth to most nonsense that doesn't mean that somehow its worthy of figuring it out. If a white guy said what he said about black people I would be ready to kick his azz. Why do people keep trying to make what this guy says to be more deep than it is?
@REMsleep This is not true. See I'm not under the spell of the media outlets you see here today. In his Pierce Morgan interview he did apologize. He made it crystal clear what he meant with his words. You do realize the man is bipolar. Number two they can be quite unpredictable. With that being said I think we need to be careful to ignore the criticism of those who actually are experiencing things we cannot see. If you weren't there then you don't know now do you. Anyway thanks for sharing. ☺️
