What? Huge celebrity goes on stupid rambling Twitter rant and we're just supposed to send hopes and prayers?

Pretty big space between 'hopes and prayers' and diagnosing him as 'bipolar' tbh, but ymmv

Here is a pic of him with a maga hat with some folks apparently throwing neonazi signs ... already seeing this image of his face as an avatar for far right twitter accounts

He's always been like this though. This is Kanyeuniversity.com without ever having to pretend like he understands the proleteriat.

pretty sure the source of the speculation is at least as far back as the 5150 from two years ago

i don't think lyor cohen is doing a neonazi sign

i think lyor cohen is just lame
― devvvine, Wednesday, 25 April 2018 20:05 (six years ago) link
Wait that's Lyon Cohen .... my head hurts
Anyways the OK sign is widel recognized as an alt right thing but of course it's possible that this is not the reference, but its proximity to the maga hat ... idk, feels bad man

only when he formally declares that George W. Bush cares about black people will the cycle be complete

His internal struggle with white acceptance is a common theme in his music and life, is it not? Looking at this through a MAGA-world lens, it's not surprising that it reads as more in your face, pro-white supremacy in this context.
― Cousin Slappy, Wednesday, 25 April 2018 20:11 (six years ago) link
no no matter what you say i will not admit that kanye has been like this all along and the context has merely shifted!!!!

i mean i think it's just his 'i'm next to a rapper pose' (which is also y'know suspect)
also don't think widely recognised is the right term for something only recognised by very online people

My hope for him and his family is that he gets treatment. And flappy bird otm. And the space isn’t big at all if you’ve ever cared about someone with it.― El Tomboto, Wednesday, April 25, 2018 1:16 PM (seven minutes ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink
i get this, i guess i am often very uncomfortable with the way people casually talk about other people's mental health online (and irl) but have a hard time expressing why

A piece on the hand signal. I always looks at it as this bit of trolling that backfired because it started as “we're gonna troll the left into thinking this non-racist thing is racist” which led to it effectively becoming a racist signal after photos of noted white supremacists doing it.

gotta say though lmao @ all the #MAGA idiots whining about the media "suddenly" attacking Kanye for this as though his bizarre and erratic opinions haven't been a talking point for a decade now

important point of distinction: the alt right internet anime nazis have always been OK with kanye, it's the republican white soccer mom contingent that really hates him
― aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Wednesday, 25 April 2018 21:47 (six years ago) link
I wasn't aware that kanye was hated by any particular group, he's always seemed broadly popular to me
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 25 April 2018 21:48 (six years ago) link
he is not

or at least he hasn't been for a long time
every album since Late Registration has been less popular than the one before it
