Kanye West aka Ye Suspended From Twitter After Posting Swastika
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: MEGA / Getty Ye has gone full Nazi, and there will be consequences. Case in point, the artist formerly known as Kanye West has been suspended from Twitter, again—this time for posting a swastika. By now you’ve surely heard about Ye’s Thursday (Dec. 1) appearance on InfoWars with infamous right-wing cretin Alex Jones. Even Jones, who just declared bankruptcy to avoid paying millions to the Sandy Hook families he slandered, tried to steer Ye away from the rampant antisemitism, that included praise for Hitler. So yeah, that didn’t happen. And then, Ye carried his problematic rhetoric over to Twitter, where he posted an image of a swastika inside the Star of David. The pic was promptly deleted, and soon enough, Ye’s account was suspended. Elon Musk himself to...
Kanye West Says He Sees Good Things In Hitler During Alex Jones Interview, Twitter Attacks
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: YouTube / Youtube We have arrived at the Ye co-signs Adolf Hitler with his whole chest portion of the simulation. On Thursday (Dec, 1), the artist formerly known as Kanye West made an appearance on Alex Jones’ web show, and proceeded to say that even a homicidal maniac has something of value to contribute. Ye appearing on Alex Jones was already wild for the night. This is the same conspiracy wingnut who is on the hook for millions of damages to the families of Sandy Hook victims after he falsely claimed the murders of their children were all made up. Such heinous behaviors was apparently not enough to stop Ye from having a live stream interview with the infamous Infowars host. They surely didn’t disappoint when it comes to tomfoolery and lies, that ...
Kyrie Irving FINALLY Apologizes After The Brooklyn Nets Suspend Him For At Least 5 Games
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Dustin Satloff / Getty It only took the Brooklyn Nets suspending him to get an apology from wannabe Oswald Bates, aka Kyrie Irving. After announcing that he and the Brooklyn Nets would donate $500,000 to organizations that work to eradicate hate, Kyrie Irving stood firm on his stance that “he did nothing wrong” when he shared a link to a film full of antisemitic tropes. After NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, a Jewish man, called Irving’s actions “reckless” and “offered an unqualified apology,” ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt did not accept Irving’s $500K donation. The Brooklyn Nets finally brought the hammer down on Irving. They suspended the all-star guard for at least five games without pay after Irving refused to apologize when talking to reporters during a p...
This Is A Start: Kyrie Irving Takes Responsibility For Problematic Tweet, Donates $500,000
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Dustin Satloff / Getty Oswald Bates, oops, we mean Kyrie Irving, is finally taking responsibility for his wreckless tweet where he shared a link to a film full of antisemitic tropes. Wednesday, November 2, 2022, Irving said he opposes all forms of hate, and he and the Brooklyn Nets will donate $500,000 to groups who work to eradicate it. Irving’s donation was a stark difference from his defiant tone during a press conference when he went back and forth with an ESPN reporter. While not directly apologizing, Kyrie Irving took responsibility for sharing the documentary on Twitter, which led to a negative impact on the Jewish community following the Nets guard’s refusal to apologize. In a joint statement with the Nets and Anti-Defamation League, Irving ...
Saturday Night Live Mocks Kanye West With Skechers Sketch: Watch
Kanye West’s latest public meltdown added a depressing new chapter when he was escorted out of Skechers’ corporate office this week — an incident Saturday Night Live lampooned on its latest episode. The comedy show addressed West’s antisemitism-fueled downfall with a sketch from the point of view of Skechers, a company that finally earned some clout when it refused to work with the rapper. If you’ve forgotten, Kanye approached Skechers about a business partnership after both adidas and Gap ended their respective relationships with him following a slew of antisemitic comments. Skechers, of course, didn’t want to be associated with West either, and he was escorted out of the company’s corporate headquarters. In the new sketch, SNL made a fake Skechers commercial in which the c...
Free Thinker Kyrie Irving Stands By Suspect Tweet, Not Going To “Stand Down”
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Elsa / Getty Kyrie Irving is going to Kyrie Irving. The superstar NBA point guard with the questionable social media decision-making skills is mired in controversy due to one of his latest tweets, and apparently, he’s not backing down. In case you need to get up to speed, Irving shared a tweet on Thursday (Oct. 27) of ‘Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America,’ with a link to purchase the film (it’s still up) and the doc is widely described as antisemitic, or at least per Rolling Stone. Considering the spiral everyone is witnessing with Kanye West due to his antisemitic rhetoric, the timing of the tweet couldn’t be any worse. Nets owner Joe Tsai took to Twitter the next day to essentially slam Irving for the tomfoolery, and the NBA would issue a st...
Kanye West Now Sympathizes With George Floyd’s Family After Losing adidas Deal
Kanye West is facing a $250 million dollar lawsuit from the family of George Floyd after spreading the false conspiracy theory that Floyd died from fentanyl, and not from the actions of arresting Minneapolis police officers. In an impromptu press conference with paparazzi on Friday night, West attempted to apologize for his recent comments about Floyd and his death. “When I see that video as a Black person, it hurts my feelings,” West said. “And I know that police do attack [sic] and that America is generally racist. And I understand that when we got to say Black Lives Matter, the idea of it made us feel good together as a people. Now, afterwards there was some things where the money went in order to push us to the Democratic vote.” “So when I questioned the death of George Floyd, it hurt ...
Kanye West Wanted to Name 2018 Album After Hitler: Report
Kanye West has an “obsession” with Adolf Hitler and once considered naming his 2018 album after the Nazi leader. The revelation comes from a new CNN report, which cites a former business executive who worked for West as well as several other unnamed sources. The executive, who left his position and reached a settlement with West over the rapper’s workplace behavior, told CNN that West “would praise Hitler by saying how incredible it was that he was able to accumulate so much power and would talk about all the great things he and the Nazi Party achieved for the German people.” West also spoke openly about reading Mein Kampf — even though he claims to have never read any book — and expressed his “admiration” for Hitler and the Nazis and for their use of propaganda, the executive added. Adver...
