Kanye is definitely up there. Because I hate so much about what Kanye has turned into... his music is just so, so fucking good. For all his personality faults (Or diagnoses... I dont think we will ever know for certain) the man is a musical genius.

He has a lot of the telltale signs of something akin to bipolar disorder. You can see very easily his ups or downs and whether or not he has taken his meds recently.

It sucks. He looks like someone who needs help.

Oh very much so, but when someone with his means and access to treatment options keeps going off the deep end and ranting about Jews and how some black people must have wanted slavery. It reduces my sympathy.

It certainly does. Simply because bipolar disorder doesn't magically create shit political views.

Otoh it is very hard to be convinced in the long term that you need help. It's a common phenomenon where people with bipolar disorder go off their meds during manic episodes.

I agree that money helps like hell, especially in the US. Otoh you also need some support around you. And he strikes me as an incredibly lonely dude surrounded by sycophants...

How are Crosby and Kanye even remotely comparable?? Crosby literally sexually assaulted others. From my knowledge Kanye isn’t a sexual predator? Crazy maybe, but not a pig? Correct me if I’m wrong though.

The "fall" is comparable not the magnitude of what they did, mostly because Cosbys shit mostly came out 20 years after he stopped being culturally relevant.
