Logged in to see if this was fake

Yep, it's real.

Yeah the ratio between that and the others is wild

[–] fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 20 points 1 month ago

X is ran by a Nazi. Those numbers could be totally fake for all we know

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 8 points 1 month ago

It's on twitter.... That's the only answer you need.

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He didnt actually mean he liked Hitler, he was just making a joke. I am not going to explain the joke because that would ruin it

(Excuses are getting harder and harder to find)

"I'M NOT FUNNY"

So he’s broke

[–] roguetrick 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

Dudes mad he doesn't have a likable personality. "But I've got money!" What a laugh. Personal insecurity makes man declare himself a Nazi. Tale as old as time.

This is what mental illness looks like. I hope he gets the help he needs and not the enablers that might end his life :/

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 100 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He may be mentally ill, but during these episodes he always goes to this Nazi shit. I think the mental illness just unmasks what he really feels.

[–] brognak@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

I mean at least he seems to realize in the full thread saying this shit is problematic, as opposed to just blurting it out completely unqualified per usual. Not making excuses, at the end of the day fuck Kanye, but this seems a very fine hair more sane than usual.

Maybe I am just reading into it weird, granted it's Ye so weird is the only way it can be read shrug

Mental illness doesn't make people nazis, just like mental illness doesn't make people mass shooters, that's simply not how it works.

[–] Luci@lemmy.ca 21 points 1 month ago

Mental illness can make you susceptible to stuff like this

Sure, he’s mentally ill, but that also doesn’t excuse being a nazi. It may explain it, but he still deserves to be punched in the mouth for it.

It’s also disingenuous and harmful to just use mental illness to attempt to dismiss it. People with mental illness already have a hard enough time living their lives without being compared to literal nazis.

Mental illness doesn’t magically make you a Nazi. Plenty of manic people just think they can fly, or make really nice art. But instead, this dude uses his platform to boost nazis.

It's not mental illness, the guy is just a fucking Nazi. Fuck Kanye.

[–] PM_Your_Nudes_Please 6 points 1 month ago

I mean, the dude is undeniably mentally ill, and he likely refuses to treat it because the meds make him feel “numb” and he makes music when he’s manic. But mania is on the same classification as schizophrenia, and comes with many of the same issues.

But yeah, in Kanye’s case he’s just a fucking Nazi who happens to have rampant untreated mental illness. The mental illness doesn’t excuse the Nazi bullshit.

[–] Jimmycakes 9 points 1 month ago

He's never going to get the help he needs. The only thing keeping him alive is his wealth. If he was a normal guy he'd be in prison or dead already.

[–] Actual_Idiot@midwest.social 43 points 1 month ago (3 children)

His IQ is the same as his phone password

[–] mearce@programming.dev 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is his password common knowledge?

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think when Ye met with Trump in the oval office he unlocked his phone and his pin was 0000

[–] mearce@programming.dev 7 points 1 month ago

I had guessed it would be 0001 lol

A normal well adjusted individual

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What now?
Well now you're an idiot, bitch.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 month ago

Nah, just answering his question

This idiot, as mentally disabled and a black, would have get gassed and burned in my country, while his favourite leader was active here

[–] __nobodynowhere@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago

None of those are leftist

How is "My wife's a bad bitch" further right that "I'm a Nazi" ?

There is just a failure mode with fame where in order to hold on it seems the plan is to just be as unignorable as possible.

[–] josie@vegantheoryclub.org 21 points 1 month ago

Whenever I listen to Kanye West I just think to myself "it sure is sad the guy died in 2017"

[–] Ascrod@midwest.social 20 points 1 month ago (4 children)

This guy needs serioua help

Whether that help is medication and therapy or a long walk off a short pier I can't say.

Ok but can we at least appreciate that he did this in the funniest possible fashion?

NOW WHAT BITCHES

[–] guaraguaito@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Is he trying to be edgy or someshit? Ion get him.

Nah, dude is just off his meds again.

[–] Goodtoknow@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 month ago

Oh dear Kanye, you have no clue that While Elon is currently part of the US govt, you're a worthless Anti-Citizen

[–] madcaesar 11 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Why are people excusing this as "mental illness"? What if he's just an asshole Nazi, no mental illness necessary

[–] Wizard_Pope 8 points 1 month ago

Who is he talking to? What money? Every time he pops up, I have no idea wtf he is even on about. At the end of the day, I guess the only pertinent information is that he is a nazi. A very strange and confused nazi, but I suppose they all are.

[–] UraniumBlazer@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

I really hope he gets help for whatever mental issues he's going through (I do not mean this is a malicious way fr)

[–] captainlezbian 5 points 1 month ago

Oh no, does nick Fuentes also love Hitler? Ye has been openly a nazi for years. It's sad but yeah
