If the difference between you being a Nazi and you being not a Nazi is medication, you're a sedated Nazi.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Kanye wants to be liked by musicians.
Has anyone considered not talking about him?
Ah, he's back on his meds again.
Good thing is he doesn't get to decide that.
Interesting how he has a propensity to identify with Nazism, yet the commentators quoted all use “antisemitism”. The conflation is not unreasonable, but stood out to me.
if it talks like a nazi, walks like a nazi and throws saluts like a nazi, its a nazi
Remember when Gemini AI spewed out images of Black Nazis and white supremacists were triggered, huh? IT WAS ON TO SOMETHING, WASN'T IT? /s
I give it a few days until he backtracks and doubles down somehow
"You misunderstood me, I'm not a NAZI, I'm literally Hitler reincarnate!"
If it walks like a nazi and talks like a nazi, then it probably is a nazi.
"But he made Graduation..."
Alternative headline: Billionaire loses money, lies again
I'm not a Nazi
Says guy who sells Nazi shirts, directly stated he was a Nazi, multiple times and has run anti-semitic rants for 3+ years
No Kanye, you're a Nazi, now and forever. I liked the old Kanye, not this new Kanye. Always in the news Kanye.
The Dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.
What an amazing sentence.
I wish I could claim autorship, but it was originally from, I belive, a Tumblr post.
Of course it's Tumblr.
If he dedicated the rest of his wealth to fighting antisemitism, if he lent his incredible fame to reversing the horrible legacy of racist, chauvinist violence, if he really gave a shit and fixed himself and worked his ass off for years, then maybe, some people might begin to forgive him.
But dong a bunch of Nazi shit and then saying you're not a Nazi, is Nazi shit. This is meaningless and pathetic, cowardly behavior.
Kanye
Kanye suck my balls
A Nazi and a coward?
Typical and even worse; boring.
Nazi and coward are redundant statements.
Even decades later, it pisses me off Hitler shot himself in his bunker as opposed to getting to have every person in Europe personaly beat him to a bloody pulp.
I graduated first at the top of my class at Wharton’s School of Redundancy School

Whaddya have when Kanye sits at a table with 4 nazis?
5 nazis.
Nazis sell swastika t-shirts on their shitty clothing websites.
I think you will find, Mr. West, that it is not so easy to unring the bell. If you are truthfully NOT a Nazi then I would say you have a long road of public actions fighting Nazis convincingly if you wish to be believed.
Get fucked, Kanye.
Who gives a shit, this guy is done forever. Go cry on bazillionaire island or whatever people who don't have to work ever again do.
Why is it that once you get more money than sense your brain breaks? Shit look at elon, he only started doing nazi stuff too after he was the richest man on earth and cash meant nothing anymore. It's all ego now, the only currency you can have after material objects aren't a problem. I think these guys want to have a following no matter who follows them (hint it's nazis I guess) and enter the religious stage to get there.
Life isn't meant to be "won" like capitalism. Nobody is supposed to achieve the status of getting what you dream of every time. I don't think Kanye or anyone else like him can see the forest through the trees at this point.
Because rich folks don't want to attribute their fortune to being born rich, to being lucky by being in the right place at the right time, or shady dealings. It'll always convince themselves it's because they're so hard working, such a genius, such great instincts for business... It doesn't help that they'll attract a bunch of yesmen and society at large respects money so much. From there on, they'll Dunning–Kruger in spectaculair fashion over anything that strikes their fancy.
The real smart ones know this can happen and make sure to guard themselves against this. They other ones fire anybody with a different opinion until their luck runs out.
I dont think its even the money with these guys. They want worship and adulation, and MAGA is primed to do it. All the worst megalomaniacs are drawn to them like moths to a flame.
Go eat some fish sticks ye.
I WAS JUST KIDDING
Who? Never heard of this guy, anyways
