Kanye West aka Ye Slammed For Antisemitic Tweet #KanyeWest

Kanye West's latest antisemitic social media post has garnered him heavy backlash from celebrities, including former friend John Legend.

Kanye West has once again gone on an offensive rant spree, this time sending out antisemitic messages on social media. Celebrities, including John Legend, were quick to swoop in and condemn him. The rapper and business mogul has attracted the ire of many within the past couple of weeks, but his latest stunt has gotten him into considerable trouble. On Saturday (Oct. 8), West sent out a now-deleted tweet that read: Im a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up Im going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE. The funny thing is I actually cant be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda. The tweet would be removed by Twitter for violating its rules and guidelines, but Wests account was locked for the violation. Many expressed their outrage over the tweet, with collaborator and former friend John Legend making an astute observation: Weird how all these free, independent thinkers always land at the same old anti-blackness and antisemitism. The EGOT-winning entertainer wasnt alone, as veteran actress Jamie Lee Curtis addressed Wests words on Sunday (Oct. 9) with a quote tweet capturing the deleted message: The holiest day in Judaism was last week. Words matter. A threat to Jewish people ended once in a genocide. Your words hurt and incite violence. You are a father. Please stop. The lead singer of rock group Bleachers, Jack Antonoff, simply tweeted that kanye a little b-h. The blow-up over Kanyes tweets came a day after the rapper had his Instagram account restricted by Meta, its parent company. Its presumed that the action was taken in response to his posting of screenshots of a text conversation he had with Sean Diddy Combs in which he wrote, Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me. That post has been removed from Wests account, but it didnt stop him from addressing Mark Zuckerberg on Twitter. He posted an old photo of him and the Meta founder, writing: Look at this MarkHow you gone kick me off instagram Read more
