Honest question: would this dude fall into an oppressed group that Nazis would target? Seriously. He is not White, German, blue eyed and blonde. Am I missing something other than a likely mental health problem that is causing this dude to write and record such music?
So many people that hate having their faces eaten by leopards support that party anyway
Bro, what are you talking about "usually"?
A lot of people during the nazi times supported or identified with Hitler or nazis who were directly a target of nazis. It's crazy how well hate sells.
It's a self-preservation attempt. It's the same reason bullies amass followers. Appeasing the powerful jerk usually works to prevent being targeted by them.
However, that would require the powerful jerk to actually value that sort of loyalty.
It's clear that neither Trump nor Musk feel any kind of obligation to those who've lifted them up. Like many bootlickers across the United States, Kanye over-values his own importance and expects others to view him the same - similar to how many immigrants voted for Trump, thinking that surely they were the exception to all his anti-immigrant rhetoric, all the while refusing to listen to those of us who said they'd be lumped in together regardless.
People's inability to share another person's perspective has absolutely shredded our social fabric.
Been trying to explain to people for years and years the GOP hate them due to their race and nothing will change that. They really don't get it.
He could become an Honorary Aryan under a "useful idiot" kind of deal, though really I think he'd probably be treated like the other African folks owing to the bipolar. He claims he was misdiagnosed bipolar, and instead has autism but in this hypothetical that wouldn't really help.
As a father with two autistic sons every time I see this irritates the shit out of me just like when the autism claims come out on Elon too. Autism doesn't entitle you to be an insufferable asshole regardless of what you may think. It's insulting to autistic people everywhere.
My boys are autistic and they know Nazis are evil and Hitler was wrong. They're not racist or sexist or incels or Nazis or bigots or whatever else you throw that is negative because being autistic does not prevent you from being a good person.
Fuck them and everyone who uses autism as a crutch. Seriously.

more like a token black guy.
He has money to afford the best doctors in the world. If he has autism, he could get diagnosed.
And yes, he'd be rounded up on a train and shipped to a camp. How else are the Nazis gonna respond to a black man who proclaims themselves to be the greatest genius who ever lived?
I think this claim that he's being manipulated, while true, does elide some of the blame on Kanye. There have been plenty of people that have warned him what would happen if he continued down this path.
I do think it's worth pointing out that antisemitism is surprisingly high among African Americans. Which makes sense since they are disproportionately affected by institutional racism. Theories about globalist banking cabals neatly simplify the complex economic mechanisms by which they are oppressed. Of course, most black people don't then go around claiming that Hitler was right, because most black people are not blinded by mentail illness and hubris into thinking that they know better than the undeniable historical consensus of what happened in 1940s Europe.
Autistic or not it does not excuse being a Nazi or applauding Hitler. My boys are autistic and they don't love Hitler nor are they Nazis. Similarly bipolar is not an excuse to love Hitler and Nazis. People need to just accept he's an absolute piece of shit.
