'I see good things about Hitler': Kanye West goes full Nazi on Alex Jones' showhttps://t.co/5jBM5uqmX2

"Well, I see good things about Hitler, also," he said, as InfoWars played the infamous curb-stomp scene from the movie "American History X." "I love everyone. The Jewish people are not going to tell me, you know, 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."
"But this guy that invented highways and invented the very microphone that I use as a musician," West added. "You can’t say out loud that this person never did anything good and I’m done with that, I'm done with the classifications, and every human being has value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler."
To be clear, I wrote that title before seeing the quote. I didn't expect Ye to be that dumb. Clearly I overestimated him.
Honestly I'm not sure what to do here. I cannot tell you how unbelievably antisemitic this Kanye West Infowars interview is. This is straight up, old fashioned Naziism being mainstreamed from celebrities who are in the ear of the last U.S. president.

Does no one remember Stephen Miller? Or separating children from parents at the border? I kinda think we've seen the worst already, ya know?We're all gawking at Kanye saying he sees "good things about Hitler" but i can't escape the absolute dread that people who know no better and look up to this man and stumble upon this interview will be moved, even on the margins, by him. This is not a clown show. It's dangerous.

Even Tucker Carlson knew better:you've really to a place when you're talking to Alex Jones and he's goin bro that's too much, stop the hate, ok?

Reminder that Kanye West's antisemitic turn began in a lengthy sitdown with Tucker Carlson, who turned him into a GOP hero while leaving the anti-Jewish comments he made in the interview on the cutting room floor: https://t.co/WJUNDgweFd

It occurs to me that I had no idea of why this Kanye guy got famous. Finding out, it's about what I'd expect. I do know that I'd found out he's a faculty brat, which didn't surprise me.
