Kanye West knows no bounds and has shown some love to Hitler, thanking the anti-Semitic mass murderer for creating microphones and “highways.”
Far-right fringe conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who earlier this month was ordered to pay hundreds of millions of dollars in connection with promoting false claims about the Sandy Hook mass shooting, had Ye on his Infowars podcast alongside controversial white supremacist Nick Fuentes, who has been spotted alongside the Donda hitmaker for weeks.
Jones asked Kanye to elaborate on his recent string of anti-Semitic claims, and how those claims inaccurately painted Kanye as a Nazi. “You’re not Hitler, you’re not a Nazi, you don’t deserve to be called that and demonized,” Jones said.
“Well, I see good things about Hitler also,” Kanye answered. “I love everyone and Jewish people are not gonna tell me, you can love us and you can love what we’re doing to you with the contracts and you can love what we’re pushing with the pornography, and this guy who invented highways, who invented the very microphone I use as a musician, you can’t say out loud that this person ever did anything good, and I’m done with that.”
He continued: “I’m done with the classification. Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler.”
This also might not be the first time Ye praised the Nazi leader. Media personality Van Lathan claimed on his Higher Learning podcast in October that during Ye’s infamous TMZ rant in 2018, where the rap mogul said slavery was a “choice,” he also professed love for Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
“I’ve already heard him say that stuff before,” Van Lathan said. “I mean, I was taken aback because that type of anti-Semitic talk is disgusting. But as far as him, I knew that that was in him because when he came to TMZ, he said that stuff and they took it out of the interview.
“If you look at what I said at TMZ, it goes from me saying like, ‘Hey Kanye, there’s real-life, real-world implication to everything that you just said there.’ What I say after that — if I can remember, it’s been a long time — was, ’12 million people actually died because of Nazism and Hitler and all of that stuff,’ and then I move on to talk about what he said about slavery.”
He continued: “The reason they took it out is because it wouldn’t have made sense unless they kept in Kanye saying he loved Hitler and the Nazis, which he said when he was at TMZ. He said something like, ‘I love Hitler, I love Nazis.’ Something to that effect.”
The Yeezy mogul made a series of disparaging comments targeting Jewish people, George Floyd earlier this year, and while Ye apologized for his “hurtful” comments in an October sit-down with Piers Morgan, he’s since continued to attack Jewish people.
Ye most recently appeared on Tim Pool’s Timcast IRL podcast on Monday (November 28) alongside Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes and white supremacist Milo Yiannopoulos — who are both working on his 2024 presidential campaign — and Ye abruptly walked out of the interview when Pool lightly defended Jewish people.
Tim Pool continued following Ye’s departure: “Are you leaving? He’s done. I’ll say it right now: You guys want to bring that stuff up, and then think we’re not gonna have a conversation?”
He went on: “You think Ye’s gonna come in here and say, ‘Here’s my pain, here’s my suffering,’ and I’m gonna say, ‘I hear you.’ And then he’s gonna say, ‘And it was Jewish people,’ and I’m gonna be like, ‘Okay, but don’t you consider…’”
He then mimicked Kanye’s reaction to the conversation: “‘I’m not gonna do that, I refuse.’”
he didint praise hitler
Do you not understand english?
Do YOU understand English? He talked about how people shouldn’t write off any human beings accomplishments for the bad they do or did, and was speaking of Hitlers accomplishments. You know, before ww2 America was fond of Hitler in many ways, and Time Magazine made him “man of the year”? Because there’d a reason he built such a string following. He didn’t build it ny coming out with hatred or violence. He did so we wildly popular economic and social policies. Ww2 is where he failed and that was his downfall. Had Germany won ww2, we would actually likely look at nazis as good guys. History has a funny way of “Victors write the history, winners are good guys, losers are evil”. But yeah, Ye was saying Hitler did many great things that shouldn’t be written off by default.
That’s because HHDX didn’t post the clip where he said, “I like Hitler.”
I’ll ask again … Do you understand what the word ‘praise’ means? Because that is exactly what Kanye did when talking about Hitler and the Nazi’s. In terms of the rest of the rambling nonsense you have spouted suggesting that a) Hitler did not build a following based on hatred and violence and b) the ideas and ideals of a mass murderer should not be ‘written off’, and are only viewed as evil because they belong to the loosing side, I can only conclude that you are also mentally ill and/or smoking crack. Either way you need serious help. Oh btw TIME magazine making Hitler ‘man of the year’ was a condemnation not an honour. Do some fucking research because you have absolutely no idea what the fuck you are talking about.
what are you talking about, condemnation?? lindbergh was the first to receive the award, gandhi, roosevelt twice, all before hitler got it. churchill got it 2 years after. its never been a condemnation, ever.
I know it’s difficult for people to admit they don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about, but I’m afraid you would be incorrect to assume that the TIME magazine ‘Person of the Year’ is to be viewed as some sort of award that has only ever been given to honourable or admirable people. It has instead been granted to the person that is considered to have had the most impact on that years events. The January 1939 edition is freely available online should you wish to actually educate yourself on the subject. You can study the front cover captioned ‘From the unholy organist, a hymn of hate’ drawn by Rudolph Von Ripper, who had been imprisoned and tortured in a Nazi concentration camp and you can read the corresponding article which refers to Hitler’s ‘audacious, defiant, ruthless foreign policy’, neither of which paint Hitler and the Nazis in an honoroble or admirable light and deserving of praise. Of course none of this is really relevant in terms of Kanye’s absolutely batshit crazy views and statements regarding Hitler, Nazi’s and the Jew’s.
‘Ye’ is finished.
‘Ye’ is finished. I actually feel pity for him, he’s clearly very very ill and should be committed to a mental health facility immediately for his own health and safety.
My mouth tastes like KKKayne’s butt
is he wrong though…did hitler not do something good in inventing the microphone and highways?? with out saying “yeah but”…its a yes or no answer.
He didn’t invent microphones you moron fuck
The answer is no he didn’t invent the microphone and highways you imbacile. This is exactly the problem we have in this world of misinformation. People just believe whatever some stupid fucking idiot says on the internet without question or research into the basic facts. It’s a very dangerous and scary time to live in.
Fun fact: Hitler considered ALL black people inferior animals. Great role model for Ye.
How hard is it to get help,dumb psycho?
Whoever paid hhdx for the Reebock/50 cent feature must have paid a LOT of money because this is the biggest rap related story in the world right now and should be the top story on this website!
Lol Hitler/nazis didn’t invent microphones or highways. Another ridiculous Ye claim. I will credit him with inventing right wing mass hysteria and identity politics. Also, disgusting racist in the comments here, theres no way of looking at nazis like the good guys unless your human moral center is as missing as Kanye’s judgment.
are you dumb? most high tech stuff came from the nazi scientists.
Wtf do you mean ‘most high tech stuff’ you complete cretin. The Nazi’s most certainly didn’t invent microphones or highways that’s for sure. In any case, anything they may have invented does not provide any justification for the regime, it’s aims, ideals and genocidal actions. ‘6 million Jews dead but at least we have Fanta’! You Nazi sympathisers are absolutely fuckin nuts!
This idiot thinks Hitler invented microphones and highways. It’s over for him. He’s clearly unhinged and I’m sure it’s frustrating for anyone in his life that still loves him. He can’t be helped until he wants to be helped. His actions are his own and he deserves the blame for what he’s become, but this is a good lesson for all of us about hero worship. We kept making excuses for him and seeking a deeper meaning in every stupid thing he said or did. Kept buying his clothes, kept buying his shoes, and kept playing music.
You are mentally ill and I truly hope you realise this before it’s too late so you can get the help you desperately need. Good luck
Truth be told Leopold the 2nd of Belgium was 1 million times worse. Hitler had Germany considered to be a super power at that time. Hitler’s downfall came for going against the bankers and committing atrocities against the people in charge of the banks.
The CoonYe Cult strikes again.
Only in present subverted 2022 is having opposing viewpoints equivalent to “mental illness.” Do you hear yourself? Like I wrote above, with scum white liberals and their new “religion” of reality anyone who opposes it is classified as “mentally ill” because they cannot defend their viewpoints with logic and reasoning. These are what we call midwits. Average intelligence masquerading as above average intelligence. Pathetic scum.
The best part was when Alex Jones said “I’m tired of being called a nazi, I’m not a Nazi” and Kanye started pointing to himself and said “I Am , I Am” This interview is going down in history
He’s about free speech. So why is no one asking him to freely speak or explain why he hooked up with Jeffree star who is a known racist in Wyoming…. Oops a known “assigned” male at birth? He should freely admit it or speak on that before praising Hitler.
I did not offer a viewpoint to be defended, I simply pointed out that you are mentally ill in the somewhat hopeful event that it prompts you to stop, think and seek the medical help you need to stop believing in the sort of delusional bullshit you are being fed by the likes of Kanye West. This is not simply a case of you having an opposing viewpoint to something but the fact that you are talking outright nonsense about some new ‘white liberal religion of reaility, afraid of radical free thinkers and free speech’ that you have made up in your mind which, ironically given your previous reply, is not based on any logic, reasoning or indeed facts. You are suffering from delusional psychosis just like Kanye. And please believe me, every single sane person that reads your nonsense and hears what Kanye has said will conclude the same. If you take the time to research this illness maybe you will recognise some of the causes and symptoms in yourself and talk to a psychiatrist soon. Best wishes
Again you are likely a white liberal and are concentrating on people (me) instead of ideas. So yes you clearly through your actions have proven to subscribe to the “religion” of the modern “white liberal.” No one asked you to reply to my comment. Your fake concern is underhanded and regardless of intent is just a subtle attempt to undermine my opposing viewpoint. Period. You are not a medical practitioner and even if you were, you do not have the ability to diagnose anything from a single comment of mine. So I will rhetorically ask you, why are you attacking me instead of my questioning/attacking my ideas? The readers can easily ascertain the answer. Because you and your kind want a monopoly on free speech in order to silence conflicting viewpoints. Don’t @ me you clown.
A lot of ignorant and uneducated people in this chat…… you americans should be worried about the fact that this clown is running for president along with a man who was impeached twice…… the world is watching the indignity with extra butter with their popcorn.
Don’t worry about us, fool. We still have it better than you do
