David pointed out some of Kanye’s posts against the Jewish community and wrote, “We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr. Musk. Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That’s twice as many people than the number of Jews in existence. His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews.”

He added, “I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that he identifies as a Nazi (which implies he wants to exterminate ALL marginalized communities including his own) or the fact that there is not sufficient OUTRAGE to remove and ban him from all social media at this point. Silence is complicity.”

What Kanye West posted on X 

Kanye West unloaded a truckload of angry tirades on social media. The rapper took to X, to share a series of angry posts following his appearance at the Grammy Awards where he and his Australian model wife, Bianca Censori, sparked fury on the red carpet when she stripped completely naked. 

Kanye shared several anti-semitic posts mocking the Jewish community, before claiming that he has 'never trusted them'. He claimed that he 'loves Hitler' and called himself a Nazi after sharing a string of vile posts about Jewish people. "I'm racist. Stereotypes exist for a reason and they all be true", he wrote. 

"I'm never apologizing for my Jewish comments I can say whatever the f**k I wanna say forever. Where's my f****** apology for freezing my accounts suck my di**. How's that for an apology”.

"Be clear you Jewish n***** don't run me no more. This is a free country and this is my free opinion. You abort black children for stem cells, abortion is murder and it's pushed onto the black and Latino communities”, he added.
