Kanye West sent the Internet into shock when he joined alt-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on his InfoWars talk show on Thursday (Dec. 1), where he openly admitted that he loves Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
“Every human being has something of value that they brought
to the table, especially Hitler. How about that one?” he told Jones, who was
noticeably uncomfortable as he tried to tell Ye that he thinks “most Jews are
great people.” Jones then told Ye that he has a “bit of a Hitler fetish going
on,” to which the rapper replied, “It’s not a fetish. I just like information.”
“I don’t like the
word ‘evil’ next to Nazis,” Ye later said, undeterred by Jones’ discomfort. “I
love Jewish people, but I also love Nazis.” Later in the interview, Ye
reiterated that it’s “time to promote love” by ultimately declaring, “I do love
Hitler. I do love the Zionists.”
Following his terrifying remarks, Twitter users expressed their concern and disdain for the comments across the platform — as it’s hardly the first time in recent months that Ye has spread antisemitic hate speech using his platform.
Soon enough, “Kanye” was trending on Twitter across the country. See some of the reactions below.
To everyone who was refusing to accept that Kanye is spewing antisemitism and cozying up to white supremacists: the man done announced he likes HITLER. How you defending this one???? pic.twitter.com/scac7t2IqZ

Republicans have normalized hate so much in America that Kanye can wildly declare how much he loves Nazis and Hitler, and folks are like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

So disgusted right now.
And this app since Musk took over is playing a disproportionate role in amplifying antisemitism through Kanye and the fascists that Elon has allowed back on.
