    yeah because most liberals endorse Candace Owens what the fuck are you even talking about

    The more I see about all this the more angry I get. A Vice article popped up in my feed argued that anybody associating him with the alt-right is p much hysterical and basically propped him up as being provocative and argued that we should "let Kanye be Kanye" but how bout let's not fucking do that

    People in this thread want to kill 50 percent of the US population.

    yeah i see wayyyy too many people in my feed on twitter (including a lot of people i'd call very tuned into things) making silly comments or liking a lot of his more harmless tweets but it all feeds into the same mentality. it's all very dangerous

    no but I'd rather 50 percent of the US population didn't get to spew bullshit that ABSOLUTELY VERY LITERALLY endangers the lives of others and have it backed up and popularized by the biggest figure in music

    why are you so shocked that this is an issue?

    ps if you're considering writing a reply that contains "first amendment" in it, I'd advise against it
     
  6. What the hell? That’s not remotely what people are saying. Do you know who actually is out there killing people right now? Turn on the news my god man.

    I mean do you step back and look at the anger flying around in here over the tweets of Kanye West. Let’s put thing into perspective for one single second.

    Tweets that are really just a bunch of random half baked world peace bullshit. Talking about a 40 year old man should know better. Fucking please. You know how many stupid 40+ people I know that say and do dumb things? Not saying I agree or disagree with what he’s saying. I’m saying it doesn’t fucking matter.

    The guy is co-signing and amplifying evil, hateful, dangerous people and their disgusting rhetoric. You’re goddamn right people are angry. Don’t know what you’re trying to prove here but it doesn’t seem like a very good point.
     
  10. Turning anger over the enabling and boosting of the worst people on the internet, including people that support the actual murder of people, into the statement that anyone here is advocating for the death of 50% of the popuLation is absurd.

    I don’t think you have the right perspective here.

    We're disappointed with Kanye putting a "free thought, let 'em be" lens on policies that are literally dangerous for people without seeming to take the time anymore (given his history) to acknowledge how the policies of those he's promoting affect people. It's no different from the "there's great people on both sides" argument and it's facile.

    From what I’ve read Kanye is misinformed and out of touch. Like every other Dad. People want their heroes to fit in their box and have their PR machine churn out perfect little answers to everything so they can go on believeing everything is perfect. Grow the hell up.

    But not every dad has millions of people hanging on his every word. Clearly everything is not perfect, and that's why most of us want to support people who are trying to call out the bullshit and improve the word, not enable dangerous and hateful ideology.

    To people who don't have a problem with this tweet, change the word "trump" to "bin laden" or "gaddafi" and see if it affects your thinking.

    Ok now I know you must be trolling. No serious person would categorize something as simple as “Candace Owens bad” as being a “perfect little answer” “churned out by a PR machine.” It’s like saying “Nazis are bad” or “the KKK is bad.” Very easy statement to get right, requires almost no brain power whatsoever.

    Don’t know what you get out of doing his but I hope it’s worth it.

    if my dad tried to come at me with some Candace Owens bullshit I'd tell him the shut the fuck up the same way I'm doing now

    If my dad said he likes the way Candace Owens thinks (which he wouldn't), her search numbers wouldn't increase by large amounts after he did so.

    Will the alt-right stop trying to claim him now that he said he loves Hillary?
