Twitter Censors Kanye’s Tweet: ‘I’m Starting To Think Anti Semitic Means N**ger’

Twitter appears to have removed a post by Ye, the artist formerly known as “Kanye West,” after the billionaire rapper and fashion icon compared accusations of of anti-Semitism levied against him to anti-black racism.

In a tweet posted on Friday afternoon, Ye wrote “I’m starting to think anti Semitism means n**ger.”

The social media platform swiftly removed his tweet, and added a note in its place that indicates “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules.”

Ye’s banned tweet comes amid widespread backlash over his alarming allegations against celebrity fitness trainer Harley Pasternak, who allegedly threatened to have him “institutionalized” and “drugged out of” his “mind” over his recent comments about Jews.

In a series of tweets, Ye claimed to have been “misdiagnosed” after throwing his support behind 45th President Donald Trump. He claims he was subsequently drugged to make him “a manageable well behaved celebrity.”

What should be obvious by now is that I was raised to stand for my truth regardless of the consequences

So I will say this again I was mentally misdiagnosed and nearly drugged out of my mind to make me a manageable well behaved celebrity pic.twitter.com/3kRuxoLcts

“What should be obvious by now is that I was raised to stand for my truth regardless of the consequences,” Ye wrote on Twitter. “So I will say this again I was mentally misdiagnosed and nearly drugged out of my mind to make me a manageable well behaved celebrity,” Ye wrote, including a screenshot of what allegedly is a text message exchange between him and Pasternak.

In the screenshot, Pasternak allegedly threatened to have Ye “institutionalized again where they medicate the crap out of you, and you go back to Zombieland forever.”

Ye has taken to several media outlets to criticize what he described as a collective of Jewish handlers who exhibit a type of “mob culture” over celebrities, punishing them when they step “out of line.”

The rapper has stated his intention to see that business contracts between these alleged figures and celebrities be restructured in order to regain “control” over “our own names and our likeness.”

Jamie then said he’s actually got the 51 percent on both those deals

We as the creators and talent get so caught up in our vanity that we don’t read or understand the fine print

Like Dave Chapelle said, we need to stop giving up control over our own names and our likeness pic.twitter.com/7eAkBn6goE

Ye has been branded a dangerous anti-Semite by several Jewish organizations over his remarks, while simultaneously and unapologetically revealing what he believes to be evidence of his claims.

On Friday, Ye claimed that former NBA player Shaquille O’Neal launched a media attack against NBA player Kyrie Irving over “antisemitism'” because of their “business alignments.”

The controversial and outspoken billionaire artist has particularly come to the defense of Irving in recent days in light of the NBA star’s 5-game suspension over what the Brooklyn Nets says is his refusal to “unequivocally say he has no antisemitic beliefs.”

Some online personalities have come to the defense of Irving and Ye, and have suggested that the ongoing campaign to label them as “anti-Semitic” could be a form of racism, deployed in order to silence black voices who speak out against corporate interests.

Remember Kyrie and Kanye the next time these bought-and-paid-for Negroes in the media act like they loved Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, JFK, MLK, or anyone who actually challenged the establishment. They bow to Amazon, China, Nike, and Godless elites. Idolatry.

“Remember Kyrie and Kanye the next time these bought-and-paid-for Negroes in the media act like they loved Muhammad Ali, Malcom X, JFK, MLK, or anyone who actually challenged the establishment. They bow to Amazon, China, Nike, and Godless elites. Idolatry,” tweeted black conservative radio host Jason Whitlock.

Though Twitter was recently purchased by free speech absolutist Elon Musk, he has pledged that the platform will continue to fight hate speech as it did before the purchase and announced plans to introduce a “content moderation council” that would weigh in on high profile decisions.
