Elon Musk confirms public will ‘not be seeing’ Kanye West’s Twitter anymore after vile rant
Elon Musk has revealed that the public “won’t be seeing” Kanye West’s X account after the rapper’s shocking online rampage.
As previously reported, the 47-year-old musician – who caused uproar on the Grammys red carpet last week – took to the social media platform to share a series of expletive-ridden tweets.
On Friday (February 7), a string of posts shared from West’s X account included anti-Semitic declarations such as: “I love Hitler. Now what b****es,” and “I’m a Nazi.”
The ‘Runaway’ star also shared a post that read: “I’m never apologizing for my Jewish comments,” and added: “ANY JEWISH PERSON THAT DOES BUSINESS WITH ME NEEDS TO KNOW I DON’T LIKE OR TRUST ANY JEWISH PERSON AND THIS IS COMPLETELY SOBER WITH NO HENNESY…SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE JEWISH AND, I DON’T TRUST ANY OF THEM.”
In addition to the hateful tweets aimed at the Jewish community, West voiced his support for the disgraced rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is currently locked up on federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He also doubled down on his controversial 2018 “slavery was a choice” statement and claimed that he has “dominion” over his wife, Bianca Censori.
As a result of his inflammatory posts and offensive slurs, X slapped a “sensitive content warning” on the ‘Gold Digger’ rapper’s account.
There were calls for Musk, the owner of X, to remove West’s account from the platform.
According to Sky News, the Campaign Against Antisemitism group condemned West’s posts in a statement, saying: “Once again, Ye has gone on an antisemitic rampage online. It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite.”
