I'm confused. I thought Kanye liked Hitler.
Dude was never a genius, he just played people. He used his “good Christian” fake attitude to rizz everyone up then when he got too big for his little britches he let his real self out behind the scenes until it became the actual scene and here we are.
Donda Academy, West's private and unaccredited Christian school in Ventura County, Calif
I want to believe he isn't using this as some kind of fucked tax-exempt shell company, but I know how the world works...
Hitler level stuff? Was he executing people?
It's a little different, they just mean that Kanye compared himself to Hitler. It's not like someone pointing the finger and saying "He's literally Hitler!"
edit: the full quote is "I am on some complete Hitler level stuff. Minus the gas chambers."
Oh, that's a quote from Kanye. Wow.
Because, y’know, it’s a totally normal thing to compare yourself to a genocidal maniac
Especially one that definitely would've genocided you too given the opportunity. Not sure where Kanye thinks he fits in Hitler's blond haired blue eyed übermensch.
He really seems to like that guy huh
I’m starting to think Kanye has problems…
"And Gay people are controlled by Bill Gates so that they don't have children for population control."
He ain’t right.
He's bipolar and that's definitely more sad than anything. Homie needs help and support...
Nah, sorry. I'm going with my favorite podcaster's take on this: mental health is not your fault, but it is your responsibility. Kanye is bipolar, and unmedicated, both of these things are true. However, that doesn't mean we should simply ignore or excuse his comments as "well he's still in a manic state." He knows what he's saying, he's backed it up and doubled down when confronted on it.
who’s the podcaster in question? i’ve been looking for a new podcaster to listen to
Marcus Parks of Last Podcast on The Left and No Dogs in Space.
And Marcus definitely knows a few things about mental health. He's been around that block once or twice.
Yes obviously, I'm not condoning what he did and said. He's very obviously mentally ill, I'm just pointing out that it's sad and he needs professional help.
No it's true. Bill Gates gave me $50, or put a chip in my COVID vaccine, or something and told me not to have kids and I was like, "oh, yeah cool." Don't pay any attention to the many, many gay and lesbian couples who have children, and the many straight couples that don't. Me and Kanye know the real truth.
Seriously though, I wish that man would stay on his meds. I feel bad for his kids. They deserve a dad who's stable and not super into Hitler.
He’s still trying to get his money back from my gf. She agreed to prefer women then went and had 4 kids
God damn it. There goes that incredibly sensible plan to reduce the population by getting a very small minority not to have babies. Sorry, Bill!
Biology is not strong with this one.
Kanye is prone to severe mania with psychosis at best, but more likely schizoaffective disorder. His thoughts are not based in reality
