What in the actual fuck? I went and looked up the lyrics. I went and looked at some of the things people were saying on xcancel. I haven’t looked at the service formerly known as Twitter in years.
So I repeat, what in the actual fuck? The very loud unveiled racism, the calling a black preacher “more like rabbi” for calling out hate, the glorifying Nazis by saying they drug Germany and the world into the modern age…like not dog whistles. Out and out fucking craziness.
I mean, I knew these people existed. I know some in real life. I grew up near a whole town built on white supremacy and dated a woman whose incarcerated brother was in the Aryan Brotherhood (she cut off contact but her mom gave out her address…I got to read the letters from him and they were disturbing). Hell, a MUD I played had a front end called Stormfront so I ended up in a very bad Internet forum looking for info and even it was tame comparatively. I’ve never seen so many gathered in one place using such uncoded and terrible language.
Jesus tapdancing Christ. It’s a different thing knowing something this horrible exists and seeing this bullshit go down.

This isn’t mental illness, this is a Nazi.

For once I think it’s causation and not corelation.

Oh no it is. West has iirc quite severe schizophrenia, and he’s not taking his meds for them due to paranoia (the meds are “stifling his creativity” you know).
He wasn’t a Nazi before. Since he’s off his meds, he turned total Nazi. And iirc in the brief time where he started taking his meds again he apologised for some of the Nazi stuff. And now he’s off them again so it’s Nazi o’ clock.
Seems very causally related tbh.
