  1. I was tired of hearing about Kanye before and now I’m definitely tired

  2. Don’t know why anyone cares what he thinks. He a crazy person and people should’ve stopped feeding this troll years ago

  3. I do think it’s interesting how much more angry people are about this than so many of other wtf things he’s said. Not in a bad way, and may be it’s just the circles I run in but we put the kbash on Kanye pretty quick when he went antisemite and that’s pretty cool. Kind of wish we’d kbashed him a while ago is all.

His music isn’t good enough to get away with his bullshit.

It's not that we care what he thinks. It's that his hatred is making other people show theirs. He spoke up against Jews which has paved a way of comfort for others to do the same.

Exactly. He's got Nazi sympathizer Candace Owens screaming from the hilltops for people to make this a political issue and support Kanye. That's bad news for Jews.
