Kanye West joins streaming service Twitch — gets banned after seven minutes
Kanye West joins streaming service Twitch — gets banned after seven minutes
While streaming, the rapper performed a Nazi salute and said: ‘Heil Hitler’
I can't believe he lasted that long. This guy needs help.
The sad thing is, I think you are correct, without even joking. I think he literally needs some kind of help.
I try to keep an open mind always. So a while back he did a Lex Friedman interview, and I listened to it. For anyone not familiar, Lex does long form interviews of an hour or more and gets deep into various subjects.
I got about halfway through before concluding that there is something seriously wrong with West. Maybe he is just stupid (not as an insult, I mean like he lacks any sort of intelligence) or maybe he has brain damage or maybe he is just delusional. But you listen to the guy talk for more than 5 minutes at a time and you wonder what the hell is wrong with him.
For example, he spent a lot of time blaming the 'Jewish media' for a lot of America's problems. Lex repeatedly asked him for specifics, challenged him to call out specific members or leaders of said media for specific actions, challenged him to use his platform to identify bad actors. He had few if any specifics and saw no particular benefit in any specific call outs, in his world it's all a conspiracy and the whole 'Jewish media' and everyone part of it is all one and the same.
Furthermore, he spent a lot of time explaining why we should stop teaching history in schools. Said we should focus on science and technology classes and not waste time reliving the past. Lex tried hard to challenge that, even brought up specific non-partisan examples from history that presented useful lessons for today. It had no effect, West continued to double down on the position that teaching kids history is a waste of time and resources.
At this point I had wasted about half an hour listening to the guy, and decided he was simply not worth my time to listen any further, because he obviously fundamentally misunderstood how the world works, how human nature works, and had little or no facts or evidence to back up his positions. I concluded that any further ideas from West can probably be safely dismissed without much consideration, because his thought process shows no evidence of rational or scientific thought.
Honestly the best analogy I can think of is like going to a mental institution and listening to a crazy person. They will talk your head off for an hour about how aliens infected their brain or whatever, and the only thing you will get from it is an hour older.
Ok that is hilarious.
I'm sure he will do well on Kick, though.
LMAO, this made me laugh! 😆
A self-exposed truly cock sucker
Surely someone clipped it and it's in the internet somewhere.. I wanna see how awful it is
It's this: @ 02:40
Is that his house now? That is the most divorced-dad looking empty-room i've ever seen, like he just finished moving his shit out of his ex-wife's house and hasn't had time to get new furniture of his own
He is Sieg Heiling so casually I am not sure if that is even worse than making it a grandiose highlight.
So some commercial American social media still ban Nazis? How long will they be able to do that?
He really can't stop with that train, so sad...
How fucking hard is it to not give a Nazi salute?
Once the number on your bank account crosses a certain threshold your right arm practically lifts itself it seems
Billionaires are too busy giving salutes to do taxes
It is not hard at all if you don't want to do it
Nazis make Nazi salutes
I'm guessing it's pretty hard when you're a has been and are desperate for any publicity.
From the article:
In February, Friends actor David Schwimmer called on Musk to ban Kanye West from X after he made a series of antisemitic posts.
Schwimmer called on Musk, the owner of X, to remove West from the platform. “This is so 2022,” said Schwimmer. “We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr Musk.”
Bold of Schwimmer to assume Musk in any way disagrees with Ye's views.
Elon is not just holding the megaphone, he's actively cranking up the volume dial.
I don't understand how there can be black people in favor of Hitler. How do they rationalize praising someone who would have genocided them?
Some people will gladly sell out the group they belong to, even when it's absolutely obvious that they will also be targeted later
Mental illness isn't a skin color.
History lessons in the US focus on the Jewish victims of the Holocaust to the exclusion of all others. Plenty of people don't know that gay, trans, leftist, or non-white people were genocided.
Even white people. Slavs for instance. Anyone considered crippled. Political enemies.
My mom's uncle, white Norwegian, was put in a Nazi camp during WWII. History lesson.
They were the primary target and most Jews died in the Holocaust. That's being said I think people of color who are Nazis tend play mental gymnastics to ignore the racism. I think it is the younger crowd who wasn't hunted by hate groups.
The real thing to note is that Nazi Germany condemned large groups of people to die. When society is ok with singling out a group of people anything can happen.
Yeah, but isn't he Christian? I think "Jesus Walks" was one of his songs. Jesus was absolutely Jewish and Christianity was a sect of Judaism for decades, maybe even hundreds of years. I'll never understand hating the people that founded your religion.
You're right, but it's definitely different depending where you live. I went to a high school in the New York suburbs that was largely Jewish. If I had to guess I'd say 30%, with the rest being a mix. We had holocaust survivors come to speak once or twice while I was there. I graduated in 06. Our teachers did not skimp on any of that. The stats were certainly focused on jews, but they also didn't leave anyone out.
The same reason poor people can be in favor of conservatives.
You can’t fix stupidity smh.
Their where Jews that helped the Nazi’s early on. They seen themselves as the good Jews.

He got inspired by the Black Hebrew Israelites, a pseudo-religous group that believes african americans are decendents of jews.
If I recall correctly from his infowars Interview (or somewhere else around that time), he came to the conclusion that since he's a jew, he gets to decide if hitler was a good guy or not. It didn't make much sense and I don't recall why exactly he came to the conclusion that he as a good guy, but I think he said something like "There's only love, so he cant be a bad guy".
It's possible he thinks black americans are the real jews, that hitler was doing a good thing with killing imposters.
In the case of Kanye... fell astoundingly far down the antisemitic conspiracy rabbit hole.
Before he went turbo-mega-ultra Hitler fanbo1 on Alex Jones... he was saying a lot of shit about how the entire entertainment industry was run by a cabal of Jews who secretly fucked over himself and other black artists in particular.
... He completely lost his mind in this process and has arguably been having the world's longest sustained, continuous, psychotic break (I think he's been far more obviously just unhinged bonkers for longer than Elon?).
He legitimately hated and hates Jews so much that the actual Hitler stuff came afterward.
How does he rationalize that Hitler would absolutely have killed every Black or African descended person he could, that he switched from being inspired by American rascism to calling the US a 'mongrelized' people, because of American society's multiracial makeup, interracial marriage etc?
Easy: He's completely insane and legitimately should be in a room with padded walls.
Logic? Reason?
404 error.
...
Have you ever tried to convince an unmedicated, manic schizophrenic that... the things they are saying just fundamentally do not make sense, at a basic grammatical level, that their mind invents things that did not happen?
Yeah, doesn't go so well.

I haven't. How's it go?
They usually just conclude that you're part of the conspiracy.
Basically, cognitive dissonance. They simply refuse to believe the truth, and make up their own fantasies in which everything is backwards from reality. It makes them feel like they have some power over their life, and/or that they're special.
99% of the time people like this are just deeply freaked out at the idea of a cold uncaring universe with nobody in control.
some people are breathtakingly stupid and mental illness is complicated, idk what to tell you fam
Well, believe me or not but black people were not on the bottom of the human nazi chart. The Jews were on the maximum bottom, then there were Russians/Poles/Serbs/Belarussians/Ukrainians, and then after them there were black people.
But still, black people weren't consider aryan lol
They think they have enough money to avoid the camps
It's not unheard of. There were even Jews for Hitler
theres racist black people 🤷 This is just that but more extreme
But usually racists are racist towards some other group of people, not themselves.
Mental illness.
This is little rational thinking in politics and political beliefs
It is all irrational for the most part
I wish that was the only part about him that didn't make sense
That’s like a speed run time 🤣
Nazi%
Might be WR
Silly bunny... The social media platform of choice for Nazis is Twitter.
Nah he got banned from there too (iirc)
He's just trying to lick Elmo's boots to get back on Twitter...
That's impressive
Drugs in the 90s were responsible for great music and dead singers, drugs today won't work as fine
So the thing is he's actually off his meds according to a lot of people. Blame the lack of drugs instead of the drugs
According to his latest album hes also on nitrous.
Aaand he's off his meds again.
Was he ever on them, in recent years?
Not since his mom died.
You can see a very tangible drop in cognition around the production and release of The Life of Pablo. Pretty sure he's been unmedicated since then.
I almost feel bad that his brain is roughly 50% nitro by now. Almost.
Even his speach sounds like schizophrenia. My bio father is schizophrenic and he also.talks about how everyone is tryng to.fuck.with him.
If this.man was screaming in the midle of a street like a homelesa.person everyone would see the mental.health problem, but since he is rich....
How did all those periods sneak into your post?
This video contains a great analysis of it.
I've only ever seen his tweets and people quoting him in articles but watching him speak for 7 minutes is eye opening. I cannot follow a single thing he says. It's just a non-stop stream of consciousness rambling with an occasional "hail hilter" and "I sucked my cousin's dick".
It's so weird seeing this guy in 2025. He seems like some zombie wearing a Kanye skin and using his voice. No longer the person we used to get hyped for. Eerie. Hope that never happens to me.
Man idek what this guy is saying. Some tidbits here and there, paris hilton, netanyahu, elon musk, some hitler stuff.
Drugs cooked his brain.
I think it's his wealth that made other people not voice their opinions towards him. Which sometimes people like this very much need.
Please don't post this here
We don't need to share hate speech
Is that some kind of speed run record?
For people not doing a ban evasion, who had a previous account?
Deranged Nazi cunt
These damn Nazis need to be deported to El Salvador.
Kanye West opened the gates at Kvatch, starting the Oblivion crisis.
average Kanye moment
Was he going for a speedrun?
Should have gone with a hot tub stream instead.
Now the fact that he did Graduation is no longer said to exculpate his madness, but with resignation and shame. "This... guy is the same who made my favorite album..."
What in the fuck even is this world anymore....
To quote Fiona Apple, “This world is bullshit.”
It is horrifying that this even happened
That's enough Mr. West, please no more today
What's wrong with you Americans?
don't you dare lump us all in with this turd.
I want to downvote you for comparing us all to Kanye but I can't bring myself to do it because we elected Trump again and your question is probably fair.
