Kanye West (45) appeared completely masked during the interview
DLNews Entertainment:
The rapper was blocked after disgusting Hitler sayings on Twitter.
He was one of America's biggest music stars. But now scandal rapper Kanye West (45) is sinking deeper and deeper.
West followed up his recent anti-Semitic tirades with another outrage. In an interview with the convicted conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, he said on the confused right-wing news portal "Infowars": "I don't like the word 'evil' in connection with Nazis. I love Jewish people, but I also love Nazis.”
And then the rapper, masked with a black mask, added: "I also see good sides in Hitler. (...) I like Hitler."
West, who now calls himself Ye, claimed that Hitler invented the autobahn and the microphone. But the fact is that Germany's later Chancellor Konrad Adenauer (CDU) built the first autobahn in 1932 - between Cologne and Bonn. At that time, he was Cologne's, Lord Mayor. The Nazis later downgraded the autobahn to a country road to build up their propaganda tale.
And mass murderer Hitler had absolutely nothing to do with the invention of the microphone...
The purchase of Twitter rival Parler collapsed.
Following Kanye West's comments, the right-wing online network has told Parler that its planned sale to the rapper has been canceled. This decision was made by mutual consent "in mid-November," the company Parlement Technologies wrote on Twitter on Thursday.
West's album choice was also to be called Hitler.
In recent weeks, Ye, who suffers from bipolar disorder, has repeatedly shocked with anti-Jewish statements. For example, the musician wrote on social networks that he wanted to "bring death to Jewish people."
He also raved about the alleged power of media controlled by Jews. Crazy conspiracy theory! He, too, is the target of the "Jewish underground media mafia."
A month ago, CNN revealed that the musician originally intended to title his 2018 album Ye, Hitler. However, an executive who worked for him said Ye was "obsessed" with the Nazi dictator.
Even die-hard fans distanced themselves from the rapper as a result. As a result, more and more people around him are turning away – including ex-wife Kim Kardashian (42) and his longtime friend Justin Bieber (28).
He seems to find recognition for it elsewhere. Ex-US President Donald Trump (76) recently invited him to dinner. Right-wing extremist Nick Fuentes (24) was also there.
This brought Trump fierce criticism from his ex-Vice Vice President Mike Pence (63). He told NewsNation: "It was wrong for President Trump to give a seat at the table to a white nationalist, an anti-Semite, and a Holocaust denier, and I think he should apologize for that."
After the meeting, Trump claimed not to have known Fuentes. However, Trump wrote of West in the network he co-founded "Truth Social": "Anyway, we got along well; he expressed no anti-Semitism."
Kanye was banned from Twitter again.
A few hours after the derailment, the rapper's Twitter account was blocked – again. What exactly is the reason for this: unclear.
Twitter boss Elon Musk later explained that the profile was blocked for "inciting violence": "I tried my best. Despite this, he again violated our policy against incitement to violence. Therefore, the account will be suspended," Musk wrote on Friday.
According to media reports, Musk is referring to a tweet from West that has since been deleted. The 45-year-old is said to have spread the image of a swastika in it.
Christoph Heubner, Executive Vice-President of the International Auschwitz Committee, on the West's comments: "For Holocaust survivors, this is just disgusting."
This action just stunned and reaped the sharpest criticism.
Christoph Heubner (73), Executive Vice-President of the International Auschwitz Committee, says: "Kayne West's anti-Semitic hatred and Nazi messages are becoming increasingly absurd, ugly and dangerous because he is a right-wing extremist and admirer of Hitler around the world encouraged and fueled with his hatred. For Holocaust survivors, that is just disgusting."
