Kanye West has been sued and dropped by his talent agency after he posted a stream of antisemitic abuse, put T-shirts with a swastika on sale in his online shop, and was alleged to have described himself as Hitler to a Jewish employee.
Last week West, also known as Ye, wrote a barrage of antisemitic posts on X including, “I’m a Nazi … I love Hitler”.
The swastika T-shirt was placed for sale on the website of his fashion brand Yeezy, with the product line “HH-01”, assumed to be code for “Heil Hitler”.
Shopify, the company that provided the online platform for Yeezy, has now taken the store offline, stating: “All merchants are responsible for following the rules of our platform. This merchant did not engage in authentic commerce practices and violated our terms.”
Would they extend anyone else dealing with untreated mental illness the same benefit?
Yeah, if you aren’t ridiculously wealthy and you start crashing out like this, you usually just lose your job and get kicked out on the street.
Being a little stinky in public is enough to get most mentally ill folks harassed by cops.
I thought that kind of attitude was normal to have. I don’t think my literally insane coworker is an evil person just because the voices in his head tell him to be racist
Likely. Not sure.
