Thought it was Gay Hitler at first for sure.

With all these reactionaries - Ye, JK Rowling, PragerU, Heritage Foundation, etc - We need to stop cross-posting their hate speech. All that does is risk spreading their views. I don't know why people who (rightfully) criticized CNN for airing Trump's full speeches, do the same with personalities who aren't even running for political power.

All it does it give mentally-ill attention seekers like Ye encouragement.

There is direct correlation between right-wing ideology and brain damage

i kinda see his nazism as a metaphor now… he’s saying he’s treated like a nazi so might as well say he’s a nazi.
or, he’s so demonized then “fine, i’m a demon”.
my take on it is: shitty artist + mentally ill.

also, interesting that he’s a cuck, and super worried about being called gay… (check out his reaction to the fish sticks south park).
you don’t have to be gay but, it definitely involves being sexually excited by other men…
i’m thinking, lying to himself level of closet gay

Damn, that's just sad.

mentally [ill] man who needs help.

I agree with this. A while back he did an interview with Lex Fridman. For those not familiar with Lex, he does long-form interviews of an hour or more that get into great detail on various subjects, and he makes a point to educate himself on those subjects beforehand so it is an actual discussion, not the usual interview of a guy explaining his job to somebody who has never heard of it.

For anyone not convinced Ye needs help, please go listen to that interview.

Ye early on blames the 'Jewish media' for an awful lot of the world's problems. Lex encourages him to call out specific members of that media for specific problems, rather than writing off an entire religion and an entire industry. Lex encourages him to use his platform to identify bad actors and directly oppose them. Ye refuses any specifics, talking only in broad general terms.

Ye then says with full conviction that we should stop teaching history in schools, that it is a waste of time and resources to relive the past and we should be teaching science and math and engineering instead as history offers us little or nothing of value. Lex of course brings up several parallels between history and modern society and similar problems happening under similar situations, once again Ye refuses to acknowledge and keeps restating his point in different words.

These are just two of the bigger issues. I got about halfway through the interview before I concluded that this man has no fundamental understanding of how the world works or of how human nature works, that he was either deluded or mentally ill or just very stupid, let his positions are almost entirely without merit and that he is a person and his ideas are probably unworthy of any consideration of mine. For me that's a pretty big thing, I try to separate the person from the idea and give everybody equal consideration.

But after listening to Ye speak for half an hour, I concluded it was the same as going to a mental hospital and listening to one of the patients rant about how aliens ate their brain for half an hour- The only thing I get from the experience is half an hour older.

I don't know what is wrong with Ye. Maybe he is just uneducated and ignorant and managed to fail upwards because he's good at music. Maybe he is mentally ill. I don't know. But I do know that he is not a smart or intelligent person that we should be listening to in any capacity.

I have had a in-depth conversation with something who believed that Shrek was the incarnation of God

I would love to hear their reasoning. That is fascinating.

His other songs like from years ago? Maybe those don’t belong to him and the platform does not remove those because that would punish a completely different entity that has nothing to do with what Kanye does now. All his songs prior to 2012 are owned by Def Jam (universal music subsidiary)
