So was he banned when he said black people chose to be slaves and promoted the klu Klux Klan? Don't remember him being not allowed to perform in countries for that.
His mental illness is well documented. I was pointing out a slight double standard between punishment and admonishment.

An interesting observation. Anyone think there’s some truth in this or is his behaviour beyond actable?
I definitely don't think anyone will see the kardashian's response to this in the press - they'll give their side when the shows comes back..

Even if his anti-semitism was simply fuelled by psychosis/bipolar/some other mental episode, it cannot and should not be condoned and he does not deserve a public platform anymore. Jewish people are genuinely afraid to exist in society, they face increasing hostility, threats of violence and attacks, every single day. If he were to apologise and society accepted that apology, what a slap in the face to the Jewish community. I'm getting a bit sick of people simply saying he can't help himself. He is one of the richest, (or was until he lost vast swathes of sponsorship deals), most famous people on the planet. He has a huge influence and people who look up to him. I live with someone with bipolar and it's fucking horrible, but he takes his meds and doesn't post offensive, inflammatory material on social media.

If he were to apologise, donate his fee to Wireless to World Jewish Relief (or similar), take a year out, and book himself in for psychiatric treatment, vowing to return to the public eye only when he is addressing his issues, then and only then, should we consider some sort of return to the fold. This will never happen of course; he will carry on parading his naked wife in the streets, parroting disgusting racial slurs and acting like the total fucking bellend that he actually is.

Oh, and there is no comparison to the John Davidson Bafta fiasco. The fault of that is entirely on the BBC for allowing it to remain in the footage, he genuinely apologised and tics and tremors are not easily controlled. It is very easy NOT to post anti-semitic rhetoric online, particularly when you have a huge team working with you and unlimited finances.
Nobody (apart from antisemites) are condoning it.

I agree about your statements about the awful things Jewish people are having to face.

But I disagree with you about his apologies, because the alternative is no apology and allowing what he said when he was psychotic to stand as his genuine belief.

I’m sure your relative is responsible and supported by you. But he also doesn’t have vultures surrounding him who make millions of controversy.

I agree with all of the rest of your post, except I disagree that the team surrounding him are working in his best interests instead of trying to make money and stir up controversy from his disability. And I think the BBC were trying to do much the same.

He had a huge bipolar breakdown.

I’m not quite sure why this is different from the incident at the Baftas last month where an offensive word was shouted.

People have disabilities which sometimes make them behave in ways they deeply regret. He’s apologised. He has well documented florid mental problems

So are we going to just discriminate against people with inconvenient disabilities now?
I said exactly the same thing.

Don’t know if Kanye’s mental health would stand up to being a running candidate. However, the dirt that would be raked up may make for interesting reading! Not sure the Kardashians would let it get to that.

What is with his Instagram? His profile pic is blacked out and he follows only 80 people (both blue tick and non) who also have a blacked out profile pic. Is it something to do with Donda promotion?
 
I don’t find a Kanye-specific thread but I do find a lot of posts about him.

Apologies if a thread already exists!

Anyhoo, the movie ‘Bianca’ seems just to be Bianca prancing around naked or in nude costumes.

They are allegedly separated pending divorce but this could a ploy for clout.

Bianca was (possibly) smuggled into the movie viewing.


It’s a sub-dom relationship / fetish now lived publicly. What with the swastika shirts Kanye now sells, it’s a big hot mess!

I wouldnt consider Tyler or Lil Nas X on Kanye's level tbh. I mean someone from 90's Rap where using the word gay was seen as "fine" in music. I don't think many people would be shocked but i can see him coming out soon, most prob after the next failed presidential race lol
