00:00
So, it turns out Kanye West hates Jews.
00:04
We were right all along, it turns out.
00:06
I mean, yeah, I guess maybe there were some people who thought he didn't because it's
00:11
been a couple of years since he went really hard on the anti-Semitism, but he's back with
00:17
a vengeance and maybe saying even more direct anti-Semitic things than he had before.
00:23
This is clear now.
00:24
He is a hardcore anti-Semite who celebrates the extermination of Jews.
00:33
Yes.
00:34
The way it is.
00:35
So, the rant actually started with a statement that, on its own, might have been controversial
00:41
and would have gotten him all the attention and headlines he wanted, which was saying
00:46
that he wants Diddy out of jail.
00:48
He had a couple of other things said, but basically this was the essence of it.
00:53
Free Puff.
00:54
Okay.
00:55
And that was an, it's an interesting take.
00:58
He apparently has a relation, he's had a relationship with him.
01:02
And so, Diddy hasn't gotten a lot of that, so he responded to it.
01:08
Yeah.
01:09
On his Instagram account, I'm not sure exactly how-
01:12
I was wondering that myself.
01:13
He has access.
01:14
I was wondering that myself.
01:15
Maybe he told someone to do it, but anyway, he said, thank you to my brother, yay.
01:18
Yeezy.com.
01:19
So, yeah, he's celebrating it.
01:22
To be fair to Diddy, which I know is something you don't hear a lot these days.
01:25
Diddy didn't know what was coming.
01:26
He did not know the firestorm that was about to come because Ye was just getting warmed
01:31
up and this is where it gets really just insane.
01:36
This is what he started to say about, this has always been, he's always framed this as
01:42
he doesn't like the business deals that he's made with Jewish people.
01:46
This is a trope, by the way.
01:47
Yes.
01:48
Ain't nobody ramped up either.
01:49
I'm calm as ice.
01:51
This is how I really feel.
01:52
This is how I really felt.
01:53
Can I stop you for a second?
01:55
He is now telling everybody, you may not have believed me before, you've got to believe
02:00
me now.
02:01
By the way, the reason he's saying ain't nobody ramped up is because this is after several
02:06
hours of tweeting.
02:07
Right?
02:08
So he says, ain't nobody ramped up either.
02:09
I'm calm as ice.
02:10
This is how I really feel, how I really felt and how I will always feel.
02:15
Blank all your blank, blank, unfair business deals.
02:19
Any Jewish person that does business with me needs to know I don't like or trust any
02:24
Jewish person and this is completely sober with no Henny.
02:28
I'm a Nazi.
02:29
Oh, there's more.
02:30
And one more.
02:31
Hitler was so fresh.
02:34
So look, you know, I'm not going to get upset.
02:39
I'm Jewish.
02:40
I'm not going to get upset with this because I think that's what he wants.
02:44
I think what you got to do at this point, whether it's performative, and it could be,
02:49
or whether it's real, or I think it is, or it's mental illness, or it's a combination
02:54
of all those things, and it probably is, he's an anti-Semite.
03:00
And I hear what you're saying, that you don't want to express too much outrage because one,
03:06
you may be just used to it, two, you don't want to give him what he probably wants.
03:11
But there is a part of this that is still dangerous.
03:13
And I understand you're saying you don't want to have all this outrage, but there are
03:18
people out there who are going to listen to it.
03:21
Their reaction to it is going to be, yeah, to hell with Jewish people.
03:25
Oh, I think you're right.
03:26
I actually think it's pretty helpful because the rant that went on in 2022 was several
03:31
years ago.
03:32
And frankly, time heals all wounds.
03:35
People forget.
03:36
They soften it.
03:37
The passage of time sort of makes him a different figure.
03:38
Right.
03:39
He's got his antics going out with his wife, and she's naked at the Grammys, and people
03:44
can have lighthearted feelings toward him about that stuff, right?
03:49
That's right.
03:50
And this is a good reminder of this is who he is.
03:52
This is his sort of thesis statement and his true feelings.
03:55
He says he's not inebriated in any way.
03:58
This is how he feels.
03:59
He doesn't trust Jewish people.
04:00
He doesn't like them.
04:01
While he's not inebriated, he still has mental illness.
04:05
I think you're right.
04:06
It's all three of them.
04:07
It's mental illness, performative, and real.
04:10
But here's the difference, Derek, between two years ago or three years ago and today.
04:15
We're in a different world today, and the hatred you express can be a plus for you in
04:23
certain corners of this country.
04:26
And I feel like this kind of hatred in some ways has been normalized.
04:30
So I'm not sure if I would be shocked three years ago had he said this.
04:36
But the weird thing is, I'm not at all shocked, and I'm not feeling that outrage like it's
04:43
a thunderbolt from the sky anymore, because I don't think that's where our country is
04:47
right now.
04:48
I think our country has normalized a lot of this stuff.
04:51
I sadly think you're right.
04:52
This is the type of rhetoric that used to marginalize you, make you a fringe character,
04:57
make you a sort of white supremacist and things like that, KKK people who aren't part of the
05:02
normal conversation in this country.
05:03
Kanye West very much is.
05:05
He's in the conversation, and you're right, where the country has moved, it has been normalized.
05:09
It's almost like he's accomplished his ends.
05:10
I mean, look at this.
05:12
You've got Proud Boys who are looking for the addresses and names of FBI agents who
05:20
did their job after they assaulted cops.
05:23
And they're saying, we are going to get you guys.
05:27
That's where it's been.
05:28
I mean, we've gone that far.
05:30
That's crazy.
05:32
That's just crazy.
05:33
So the saddest part of this is that we actually aren't shocked by it.
05:39
No, you're right.
05:40
We're not shocked by it.
05:41
Really?
05:42
And that's where we are.
05:43
Hey, guys.
05:44
Yes, he smiles here from Miami.
05:45
And can someone please take Kanye's phone away from him?
05:48
Because it's like you guys were saying, I think we're shocked, but we're really not
05:52
shocked.
05:53
And someone as big as him with the proof that Diddy has committed these crimes, it's like
05:58
crazy to me.
05:59
It's mind blowing.
06:01
And it kind of makes you think where his mental health really is.
06:04
Yeah, but you know, you can't just always pass things off to mental health.
06:09
That people with mental issues, and many people have them, can still embrace hatred.
06:14
So I think you're right.
06:15
Yeah, he could be.
06:16
He absolutely could truly believe these things.
06:19
You just, I don't know.
06:22
It's all mixed in.
