    I'm not saying Kanye doesn't deserve to get cancelled for his anti-Semitic bullshit, but there's so much other stuff that should have gotten him cancelled long before this. :sigh:

    Like calling this a shoe, for example.

    There's something wrong with the mind that came up with an abomination like that. :jayzus:

    I think with the fashion stuff there's a sort of Andy Kaufman-style trolling happening there. He's spoken of his admiration for Kaufman before. Making hipsters dig through trash bags at the Gap to find overpriced hoodies feels like performance art, just like convincing them to wear what appears to be melted soft serve on their feet. :async:

    It looks a lot like what you would see 80's movies saying people in 2020 would wear. Kanye was always an overrated sampler as far as I ever saw. Not that cool things do not come out of sampling and covers, but he was never very impressive compared to other people doing it IMO.

    I think you are correct that there is a huge disrespect for his audience, and an egotistical over-appreciation for his own "genius" that drives his attempts to grift his followers. Kanye is not incorrect that people will buy trash as long as an "artist" says it is art. His opinion is wrong that he invented it when he is just another in a long chain of con artists.

    Ity is interesting how all thew idiots who contributed to the Kanye is a genius bullshit are now trying to excuse his bigotry as the product of mental troubles and not that Kanye is and has always been a toxic bigot.

    I lose so much respect for everyone who tries to claim Kanye was great back in the day because they cannot admit they have trash musical taste and jumped on the bandwagon for a so-so fuckhead. These are the same people who were all about milli vanilli, vanilla ice, and the new kids being musical geniuses back in my day, and now pretend they never liked them to begin with.

    Every Kanye fan was a fucking pop star follower. He never had more talent than a sampling DJ. He was never a fucking genius of music. He was mediocre and tolerable. His only talent was trolling himself into mega stardom as a half assed talent, and every one of his fans has a soft spot for shit. We all have guilty pleasures of basic crap we love to consume, but that does not make a musical genius.

    People need to stop pretending their lack of taste excuses their love for a obvious black Nazi troll. People need to just say they ignored his obvious nasty because they had a guilty pleasure for his music up until he tainted it.

    Now the dipshit is saying he regrets what he said about George Floyd because "God has showed me by what adidas is doing, by what the media is doing, I know what it feels to have a knee on my neck right now."

    Right wing Nazis: Have you seen any Jews (actually using the slur)

    Me: *hiding a bunch of jews in the back room* nope, but I did see Kanye running that way

    Right wing Nazis: Thank you, and you are invited to the lynching later.

    me: Sure, no problem. I will bring some kool aid. Do you like grape?

    I think most white lefties have trouble responding to bigotry when it comes from a member of that same group. There's that "are they allowed to say that? Am I allowed to say they're not allowed to say that?" ambiguity that lets them get away with it. That's why conservative owned newspapers will often feature think pieces from non-practicing Muslims shitting on Islam or Iran, women shitting on feminism, and all sorts of minorities shitting on their fellow minorities. :async:

    There was a reason that Muad Dib was so fond of Cosby.

    I've said it before on Facebook, minorities that side with Fascism baffle me.
    Do they think they're going to be protected housepets forever?
    Do they think they won't be thrown on the ash pile at the first opportunity?
    How? By luck-magic? Personal charisma?
    WTF?
