in a recent podcast, ye said "I can say antisemitic things and Adidas cant drop me. Now what?" here's what... Adidas cut ties Balenciaga cut ties Vogue / Anna Wintour cut ties Dropped by talent agency, CAA Dropped by lawyer, Camille Vasquez Streams, sales & airplay plummeted Banned from Instagram, FB, Twitter Stadium shows cancelled Documentary will not be released do you think he can come back from this?
He’s bipolar. Must be off his meds.
If I know one thing, when companies go overboard to do this, they will get sympathy from a large sector of people
My grandma's family which were all murdered in the Holocaust would have surely hoped he gets the mental help he needs.
♥️ I can’t stand seeing comments online which are backing him with the logic of “oh he’s getting cancelled by jews, he’s right”! Like yes, you are a billionaire who said terrible shit, what did you think will happen? If anything Adidas took way too long. For the antisemites it seems to only further validate their insane conspiracies.
I don’t even think Parler or Truth would allow the guy. He was paraphrasing Trump’s 5th Ave brag but he went overboard in an unforgivable way. He committed media suicide.
he's trying to buy parler!!
Yep, let’s see how it turns out.
You don't talk shit about Jewish people without getting COMPLETELY shat on.
Yes, he will still be far far more wealthy than everyone’s TC combined on this thread
I will Thank god for the fall of Ye. He’s an idiot.
self destruction at its finest

He’s been trying to get out of this deal for a while. I don’t condone how he severed the ties, but I personally think he knew exactly what his words would lead too.
This is actually a great case study of why cancel culture is bad for a society. It has pushed this guy to more extreme and nonsensical views. However, when a sensible person sits down and talks to him, humanizes him, listens, and intelligently pushes back on his dumb ideas, he actually starts coming back from the brink as you can see in his interview with Lex.
Right wingers: he hates Jewish people like me. Also right wingers: yeah but he's black.
The Right loves tokens though. I even suckered people into regularly sending me money just to pretend to be a token for them. It worked for Candace Owens. She tried making a career as a liberal activist and failed, so she declared she had a conversion and was given tons of money to be a token. YouTubers have flipped for the money too. The only downside is if regular people find out you're doing it and think you really are a bigot or some skinhead finds out that you've been suckering them out of their welfare money.
@Twitter: How is it not about domestic politics? Okay, yes, he has mental health issues but the Right now loves Kanye because he's and Candace Owens are playing tokens for them. This is not to say, of course, there aren't actually conservative Black people. There are a lot of them (nearly married one). The average Black American is probably more conservative than the average white American. But Candace Owens, Kanye West, and "Diamond and Silk", etc. are not conservative Black people. They are Black entertainers for conservative white audiences.
