The rapper formerly known as Kanye West directed viewers to his website, where the homepage was selling a T-shirt with a swastika on the front.
Oh stop it you stupid leftys. Maybe he just like the design of it. Maybe he’s autistic. Anyway no need to start calling everyone nazis.
/s **** it's a joke**** please everyone be aware that I'm joking** Sorry but I need this to be crystal clear, it's a long story.
This feels like something a hexbear user would say in a serious way. (Replace lefties with liberals)
I couldn’t have taken enough drugs to write this timeline 20 years ago. WTF is happening? Maybe CERN did break the universe with the LHC
the 2012 mayan apocalipse was real and we are now living in purgatory.
Well the Mayan thing wasn’t supposed to be Apocalyptic; it was supposed be a signal of a “new age.”
… of pain and suffering? if so they were dead on.
Harambee was our anchor being. Everything’s been fraying at the edges since that day.
We had a second chance with Peanut the Squirrel. We fucked it up again.

I’m convinced that the timeline split happened in 1971.

The world really ended in 2012. We’re living through the blooper reel.
I couldn’t have taken enough drugs to write this timeline 20 years ago.
You must have been really optimistic to expect something different out of these morons, to me it’s more surprising they managed to keep quiet until now
No, this is just a Nazi who has always been shitty. If you were fooled by him at any point, then now is the time to question your judgment. If not, then good for you. But you’re still not infallible… None of us are.
Someone needs to stop using the What If machine!
We’d use the universal translator instead, but it just spouts crazy gibberish.

“I’m gonna ask it the dumbest thing I can think of: What if Donald Trump became president?”
“Oh yeah? I’m gonna ask it what if Donald Trump lost re-election, then got re-elected?”
machine explodes
Almost the plot to Cloverfield paradox
Anybody know what the official shop site is called? On yeezy(dot)com is only one item and that’s a white r-Shirt with a black swastika on the front.
The shop feels broken tho, because there are almost no ux elements.
Is he doing this to remain relevant?
That is the official website. It’s linked on the wiki page for Kanye, and Kanye has advertised it on his Insta. I thought it was fake too because it’s so poorly designed. You can’t even see the price of the shirt until it’s in your cart.
Far be it from me to know of someone, anyone, even a celebrity, by using a reverse initialism or, worst, and I don’t say this lightly, an apheresis.
At least he is isn’t hiding it
This is how low the bar is in 2025
What a timeline to live in…
*NazYe
ADL easily calls out this symbol as one “adopted by Hitler as the primary emblem of the Nazis,” but can’t say the same about an extremely recognizable salute also adopted by Hitler as a primary symbol of the Nazis.
The ADL is a zionist organization that was literally founded to protect a pedophile and child rapist who was, with no relevance to those actions whatsoever, Jewish. Do not take any of their “stances” as being for social justice.
Do you have a source on Sigmund Livingston being a pedophile?
GOOD! Let assholes put a literal target on their chest. I’m fine with this. Fuck me, I should start selling Nazi merchandise so I can track them.
Useful fucking idiot.
Sad to see that the dude’s in this state. He clearly needs psychiatric care, not a platform from which to yell his absurdities.
His account was closed
And I was wrong about who was the dumbest person on Earth.
What’s insane is that FOX allowed this commercial to air in the first place. I’m sure someone at FOX will say “We had no idea he would put this on his site”, which we’ll all know is bullshit because they scrutinize the fuck out of every Super Bowl ad before it gets to air. There is a 0% chance that nobody knew about this beforehand.
Guys, just because he went on Alex Jones to make racist jokes and talk about how much he loves Hitler doesn’t mean he’s a nazi
At least the next Superbowl halftime show is going to be interesting:
There is absolutely no excuse for this u/Remember_the_tooth. This is wildly inappropriate and completely out of date. There is absolutely NO excuse generative AI and MLL can’t remake this for a sequel using actual Kekius and Trumpf for the modern times.
That’s a really good point. Why rehash Mel Brooks’ old content when we have actual live NeoNazis on our front porch. Kudos to you for your insight. We could probably just livestream a rally.
The commercial itself didn’t feature the shirt or any nazi imagery. It was a 30 second clip of Kanye in a dentists chair telling you to visit his website. It only aired in LA.
I don’t understand this timeline.
I heard it didn’t air in all regions?
This dude is off the fucking rails, batshit insane.
And what’s sad is that he’s wealthier than everyone that uses lemmy, combined.
Why the fuck does good shit always happen to bad people, and good people always get shit on?
Probably not a popular opinion around here, but this is actually one of the rare cases where he is (was) extremely talented at his main thing (producing). That doesn’t mean he deserves that disproportionate amount of wealth, but he’s contributed more to culture than elon ever could.
This is basically undeniable, but what really makes me sad is the artists who don’t seem to be Nazis or even right wing but still support this dude and stand up for him because he’s been so influential on many of them.
You don’t get wealthy if you’re good, because it takes a certain amount of greed and materialism
At least you’re not a black Nazi, bud. Money doesn’t equal happiness. I bet he’s miserable.
It can’t buy happiness but it can pay off my unhappiness debt.
Money does, however, buy security. Money would solve all of my worst problems and make the other ones easier to handle. We don’t need a lot, but sure as hell need more than we have now and people like him don’t deserve a damn fucking cent(besides any universal social programs because that’s what universal means and I ain’t gunna be that guy).
Money doesn’t buy happiness, but a lack of money is sure to bring unhappiness.

Adding “Ye” to my list of blocked words
I want to but I think the Thunder filter feature is a bit aggressive. I blocked the word “US” but I realized a long while later that it was also blocking all links to my instance sh.itjust.works. I’m afraid I’ll lose all titles with “yesterday” or “yes”.
I’m working on my own lemmy app. It would be cool to have settings for your filters like containers, starts with, ends with, word, part of word. But I also need to strike a balance between average users and power users. Maybe an advanced filter setting would be cool.
Can’t you filter " Ye " or something like that?
I would assume that the filters are case insensitive and filter whitespace but I don’t know for sure. I should test some stuff out.
Ye of little faith
