It’s a guy who’s bipolar and off his meds, there’s no argument or discussion to be had. Would you argue with a crazy homeless guy on the street?
Because that truly is the stage that he’s at, he just has the income to keep himself afloat.

We’re not the ones who are going to mimic him. His audience will use his words to rationalize their own bigotry. We need to pay attention to him because his audience will make themselves a problem.

The racists are going to be the vast minority of Ye’s audience. Statistically negligible. Some people are just surface-level low-intelligence beatheads who like the music.
R. Kelly had to go to jail to get people to stop listening to his music, and I don’t recall people advocating for pedophilia on his behalf.
