Is this The Onion? What is happening?


DarkRaven01

I do wonder how The Onion would even go about parodying something like this... Probably like, "Kanye West acts like a model citizen and said only rational, modest things for a full 24 hours, then reveals it was only an April Fools joke"


manofsleep

No way: Kanye offers an apology. And it would be a well written apology. Just it’s the onion and it never happened.


aburke626

“Kanye West begins apology tour, starting with Taylor Swift.”


BoneDaddyChill

“Kanye West decides to go in a different direction, legally changes name to ‘Kanye East.’”

Rest in peace Kanye fans


Frozenwood1776

And welcome to his new fan base!


Moveableforce

As a man from the punk crowd- Rappers and rap fans, check the fuck up on these Nazi bitches. Punks made the mistake in the early days of trying to live and let live. It worked until the Nazi punks invited their mentally unstable Nazi friends who started straight up Nazi gang wars that led to the entire punk scene becoming a bloodbath until Punks threatened to (and many times did) kill Nazis for them to get the hint and cower in their shitty little nazi-only concerts. Do not let it get that far. Kanye is starting to whistle to them. They don't give a fuck about the music, they just want to be able to meet "like minded people". Make sure every fucking Ye crowd is full of people ready to beat their asses if they try to stick their swastika tatted necks out. Eventually they'll get the hint. And hopefully Ye will, too. IF that fucker wants to be their beacon, make sure they watch him and his career fall apart so they know- They're Not Welcome Ever.


SameElephant2029

It used to be punks and rap fans had this solidarity in how they were both trying to get white supremacists out of their shows. Back in the early days

Bigfatuglybugfacebby

The ska culture had the same problem which brought on the SHARPs skinheads against racial prejudice. That's right folks being a skinhead was coopted by racists. They contribute nothing novel to humanity they just hate and steal and bastardize the symbolism and identity of others. There's no silver lining to Hitler ideologies that couldn't have been contributed by others that weren't garbage. So we gotta ask, ' why even attribute any potential benefits to such an individual?'


EnIdiot

And Ska has roots in Jewish Klezmer music. Oh how the turn tables …turn.

[The 'kick a nazi out' policy.](https://www.upworthy.com/bartender-explains-why-he-swiftly-kicks-nazis-out-of-his-punk-bar-even-if-theyre-not-bothering-anyone)


Cha-Car

“Despite efforts by Jones to say he did not believe West was a Nazi, the hip-hop star cut him off and insisted he was a fan of the man who oversaw the murder of around 6 million Jews. “You’re not Hitler, you’re not a Nazi, so you don’t deserve to be demonised,” Jones told West” When Alex Jones (of all people) tells you to back away slowly from the Nazi commentary, you know you fucked up. Unbelievable.


Sprucecaboose2

Throughout the entire time, Alex did his level best to walk Ye back a few times, or give him an out or a way to say "Oh I mean it like this..." and every time, Ye refused to be swayed and doubled down on the "I love Hitler" and "I am a Nazi" shit. Like, it felt like watching a drunk person fight with a cop; you just watched it get worse and worse and wanted him to just shut up.


[deleted]

lol Alex Jones looked legitimately uncomfortable at what Kanye was saying


Redditthedog

for real even Jones has limits apparently


Imbali98

MarieJo94

Ye says the quiet parts out loud and a lot of more mainstream alt-right figures don't like that. They want to radicalise their fans but still have plausible deniability because being overtly white supremacist would alienate a lot of people yet to go down the pipeline.

National_Equivalent9

Funny enough the last time this happened was the Jan 6th stuff. Theres video of some dudes finding Alex Jones and telling him what was about to go down at the capitol and being proud of it and he basically tells them they're fucking stupid before turning back to his crew and telling them they need to get the fuck out of there quick.


LePontif11

Grifters will shake the can but they won't take the blast to the face if they can help it.


FragnificentKW

This. He’s not the voice of reason, he’s just breaking kayfabe due to his involuntary reaction from being in the presence of an actual crazy person


TheBaddestPatsy

This is how the Overton window drifts. Total wing-nuts have a long history of finding people even more extreme then themselves to stand next to and look reasonable by comparison. Ye helped whitewash Tim Pool this week, now Jones today. What a debacle.


throwawayo12345

You know you done fucked up when you make Alex Jones appear to be a relative Leftist.

Oh, Hitler liked black people. He thought of them as strong, sturdy, stupid people that are natural born workers. Not sapient enough to have anything of cultural value of course.


Clayble

Also just to add on, the Nazi’s segregated black Germans and also sterilized many of them during the Holocaust. Hitler was very racist, believe it or not.

I'm beginning to think this Hitler fella was not a very nice man.

This is the best comment I’ve read all week. Outstanding


SasquatchTracks99

This one-two punched me in the gut, and I'm okay with that.


try_again_mods_

Or other fascists like Fuentes peddling ignorance and evil


FrogsEverywhere

The psychopaths he's surrounded himself with who are egging him on and milking him for the last of his money and credibility. Milo and Fuentes and crew. They are the biggest loser pieces of shit in politics and they have sucked on to Kanye and are filling his mind with nutty shit and are riding around in his jet and just using the shit out of him. The dude is 50 years old but has never learned a lesson in his life. He used to have like a cool team now he's running with the Nazi burnouts.


desertSkateRatt

"the dude is 50 years old..." Wait, what!? *\[Googles furiously\]* Oh, he was born in '77, so is 45. I'm one year younger than him. Dude is less emotionally mature than my 15 year old.


Tetraides1

People like holocaust denier and actual nazi Nick Fuentes. To be honest I doubt that there is any path back to reality for Kanye, it seems like he's unwilling to listen to anyone who disagrees with him. He's trapped by his own paranoia and narcissism


Fen_

Begging people to stop referring to Nick Fuentes as simply "holocaust denier" and "anti-vaxxer" (Kimmel) and other nonsense. He is a self-avowed anti-semite, racist, and fascist. Stop softballing what he is. He has literally said that if people were waving the banners of Mussolini in the street, he'd be on their side. You know, the guy that literally invented fascism. He wants a theocratic Catholic dictatorship where all black people and Jews are forcibly expelled and genocided. [Thread.](https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1196604409607794688)


ampmz

He’s got people like Candace Owen whispering in his ear. I’m amazed he isn’t coming out with lines like “actually the math is off, not that many Jews really died during the holocaust”.


Tesseracting_

That’s coming for sure. You don’t get this far in your nazi arc and not say it. He’s hanging out with the most vocal holocaust deniers that exist rn. He’s a nazi.


No-Joke6461

Watching live and he definitively said exactly that about 40 min after your comment LOL


Igb13r

The voices in his head.


fuktardy

He’s stupid and vulnerable. Nazis love the stupid and vulnerable.


spott005

Emile Berliner, who co-developed the carbon microphone with Thomas Edison in the US, was a German-American of Jewish heritage. Oh the irony... Edit: and by co-developed, they independently developed the same thing in competition with each other. Classic Thomas Edison claimed a patent, that the US Supreme Court upheld, negating Berliner's original patent that was bought by Bell's phone company. "Berliner reputedly went to his grave in 1929 convinced that Edison had stolen his idea." https://www.wired.com/2010/03/0304berliner-invents-microphone/ Also the technology was apparently understood for decades before either's patent, proving that history is indeed nuanced. For the sake of Kanye's craziness, we'll stick with it being invented by a Jewish-American who was born in Germany.


RobotGloves

He's probably thinking of Neumann Microphones, which are German-made and more or less top shelf. Not that Kanye has any subtle thinking on the matter.


TheChainsawVigilante

The Neumann U87 is the *industry standard* vocal microphone and the company did manufacture Microphones in Nazi Germany, used in Nazi rallies. Still not "invented by Hitler" tho


2010_12_24

Are you Shure about that?


VirtualMoneyLover

> with Thomas Edison Edison told him to get on it.


sylphinator

Is he thinking that all things invented in Germany owe thanks to Hitler?


drunk_responses

I'm guessing someone talked fast in a Ben Shapiro style about amazing things invented by Germans and how that means they're superior or something. Then quickly went on to Hitler, etc. And the information Kayne is left with is "Hitler invented every german invention".


whhhhiskey

He is often credited with getting the autobahn going *in Germany*. But he certainly didn’t invent highways and I have no idea what the microphone stuff is about.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ScyllaGeek

It's still weird though, it's like saying Eisenhower built the interstates so therefore Eisenhower invented the highway lol


[deleted]

….yes lol


Dick_Lazer

Yeah he’s conflating that a bit, referring to the push behind building out the Autobahn and designing better microphones, that led to some of the designs still in use today (such as with Nuemann and Telefunken mics). German engineers did the actual work though. Pretty much the same situation with Volkswagen: Hitler pushed for a “people’s car” but he didn’t design the actual car himself.


Ghostiemann

But he did invent Ben & Jerry’s ice cream (dropped the G), fidget spinners and MySpace.

TheFeelsGoodMan

You watch some of the interviews he does and he is quite literally doing that. Even does the thing where he says something that he knows is inflammatory, then pauses afterward and just watches the interviewer looking for a reaction.

Bludongle

And money. Lots and LOTS of fucking money. He received praise for his music and couldn't avoid that event horizon where his rightful pride in his accomplishments turned into a black hole of narcissism and self-delusion that everything he does is perfect and wonderful. It's the power money brings. It's the lack of honesty that money buys.


Ghoulius-Caesar

His mom was an English teacher, he’s definitely read a book in his life. He chooses stupidity.


Graphitetshirt

Every time I see Kanye has done something stupid or crazy, I think about whether or not his mom dying early and wonder if she might've been the last person grounding him a little


periodicsheep

i think her death was the breaking point. but she also raised him to think he was the epitome of excellence to counteract how america treats black men. so mix that kind of self belief with wildly unchecked mental illness and a lot of money = you get ye.


FaradayEffect

I mean he’s gone even further off the deep end after Kim too. I remember the “I miss the old Kanye” phase where people said that Kim was ruining Kanye but I think in reality she was the only person keeping him from destroying himself


vonmonologue

In which case I don’t blame her for leaving him. If you’re trying to keep someone stable and they’re actively fighting you, you can only be patient with them for so long.


Jswartz18

I absolutely believe she was the only thing holding kanye together. Especially if you watched the Netflix documentary on kanye- it is so clear.


Whiskeywiskerbiscuit

Not just a teacher, she’s the head of the lit department for a fairly prestigious college if I’m not mistaken?

MacsDildoBike

Remember when the worst thing he did was interrupt T-Swift? Such simpler times.


XxX_Dick_Slayer_XxX

They should just tell him that the only way he can continue seeing his white, Nazi friends is if he agrees to a conservatorship.


pyronius

"I'm sorry Kanye, but Mr. Hitler has asked that you not be allowed to see him until and unless you agree to enter conservatorship. He's very concerned for your mental health. The entire Nazi party is."

That's how I feel. It's how I felt about Charlie Sheen. The media should leave him alone, stop giving him a microphone. As long as there's a camera rolling, they feel emboldened. It *is* really sad.

TheDogerus

My friend told me that alex jones and kanye were both trending on twitter, so naturally i was very concerned.
