Ye Goes On Hate-Filled, Antisemitic Spree on X Praising Hitler: ‘Elon Stole My Nazi Swag at Inauguration’
Ye went on a hate-filled, antisemitic tweet spree on Friday morning (Feb. 7) that included ableist and homophobic slurs the ADL called 'dangerous.'
Ye’s spree also included the use of homophobic slurs (“f—ot a– n–gas”), ableist insults (“dumb a– ret-rds”) and the statement “all white people are racist.” A number of the tweets were marked “visibility limited” as they ran afoul of X’s rules against hateful conduct. Amidst Ye’s earlier embrace of Hitler and Nazi propaganda, experts spoke to Billboard about the dangers of someone with such a wide social media reach promoting antisemitic tropes at a time when hate crimes against Jews and Jewish institutions were at the highest point in recent memory. At press time, the string of antisemitic statements continued unabated with Ye writing, “I don’t even know what the f–k anti semetic [sic] means… its just some bulls–t Jewish people made up to protect their bulls–t,” as well as a claim that he “channeled” misogynist influence Andrew Tate in his comments.
