Donned in a black mask, Ye (Yedolf), the ‘artist’ formerly known as Kanye West went on Alex Jones’ Infowars’ shithole, along with Nazi Nick Fuentes, and spewed anti-semitic remarks and “repeated the lie that the Holocaust did not happen while praising Adolf Hitler.” Yedolf’s comments even had conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones, shocked and scrambling to get Yedolf back on track. Instead, Yedolf doubled down.
Yedolf’s latest outburst finally caused the GQP to react, sort of.
In October, Yedolf attended the Paris fashion show wearing a White Lives Matter shirt; the House Judiciary Committee ranking member, Gym Jordan praised him and tweeted out:
When Ye tweeted on October 8 that he wanted to go “death con 3 on THE JEWISH PEOPLE,” the House Judiciary GOP’s tweet stayed up.
Throughout October, as Ye claimed that a Jewish doctor had misdiagnosed his mental illness; repeated stereotypes about Jews controlling finance and the media; and refused to apologize for his remarks or disavow anti-Semitism, the tweet remained.
Today, after West explicitly praised Hitler on conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ InfoWars podcast, the tweet came down.
According to Politico, TWO members of the GQP actually spoke out against Yedolf’s latest hate rant:
“Kanye West is a deranged Anti-semite,” New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, one of the few Republican Jewish members of Congress who lost his bid for governor this year, told POLITICO in a statement. “I want absolutely nothing to do with that lunatic. He’s totally bad news.”
Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-Iowa), a rising star in the GOP, tweeted that Ye’s “anti-Semitic comments today were disgusting,” blasting the rapper in “the strongest possible terms. We must call out this hateful rhetoric and root out anti-Semitism wherever it rears its ugly head.”
So far, the “Christian Jews’ have remained silent.
The far right, Domestic Terrorist social media platform Parler, has terminated their plans to sell the shithole to Yedolf claiming “the company and Ye had ‘mutually agreed’ not to go ahead with the sale.”
On Thursday evening, Twitter owner, Space Karen, suspended Yedolf’s account for tweeting a logo that features a swastika embedded in a Star of David.
Some users had initially reported that Twitter told them the tweet was not in violation of Twitter’s rules, but Musk subsequently tweeted that Ye had been suspended for inciting violence.
But, there’s always (Un)Truth Social shithole where many hate filled monsters congregate:
Similar to Roseanne Barr’s claim that Ambien caused her to go on a racist rant on Twitter, Yedolf, along with his apologists, have used his mental illness (bipolar) to excuse his hate. But, some experts have argued, “quite rightly, that neither bigotry nor antisemitism are characteristic symptoms of bipolar disorder. People with mental disorders are no more prone to hatefulness than those without. To suggest otherwise — by baselessly attributing West’s antisemitism to his psychiatric affliction — is both to promote stigma against people suffering from mental illness and to excuse his hateful diatribes as helpless spasms, if not ‘harmless amusements.‘”
