Hey, you want to buy crap, I won't stop you. I don't drink coffee, buying Starcucks by the cup is not cheap and it's not great coffee according to the coffee snobs I know.

It's easy for some – particularly if you are white – to say that an extremely influential black man with a cult-like following aligning himself with a demagogue and racist movement is much ado about nothing, but the rest of us can't shrug off the ramifications so swiftly.
Quote:
The conservative movement has never had an advocate as cool as Kanye West and many should be alarmed. Conservatives have long elevated black figures who uphold white patriarchy. It's why Diamond and Silk can net New York Times profiles and appearances before Congress. It's how Katrina Pierson managed to be on national television throughout the 2016 presidential campaign despite displaying very little knowledge about any given political topic. It's how Omarosa Manigault-Newman and Ben Carson scored gigs in the Trump administration despite having no business in either position.

Kanye West's recent actions have shown, in a clear and unambiguous fashion, that he doesn’t care about black people: https://t.co/oR5vwZT2gu pic.twitter.com/YIy2FpmIgV

Let's stop talking about Kanye West. It's not as if he mattered or was relevant before.

Dudes bipolar and has mental health issues. Up until this moment he’s been irrelevant.

I accept he has mental health problems, but mental health illnesses are not an excuse to just do and say what you want. I cannot stand the Karkrashians or Kanye West. He would have a mental health plan in place and his family need to intervene.

Family was imprisoned by Democrats in Japanese internment camps during World War II:
No one would bat an eye if an entertainer said they'd have voted for George Bush. Vocal support for Trump, by contrast, stirs backlash because he has attacked our communities, our institutions, and our values. We are not in ordinary times. They demand we all take a clearer stand.

His music sounds totally different now.
Used to be an amazing artist now he’s joining the ranks of Kid Rock and Ted Nugent—ba wit a ba da bang da bang
— Scott Dworkin (@funder) April 26, 2018
Fake black man to real black man:
Kanye has decided that all of the harm Trump has caused to very real people – that it doesn’t really matter much – because he likes the man’s personality, his style.
This doesn’t make him “a free thinker” or a maverick.
It makes him an insensitive asshole.

Free thinking means coming to conclusions I agree with:
It’s great to be a free thinker but that alone ain’t the point. If you’re freely thinking your way into dumb conclusions then color me not impressed.

This won't end well.Quote:
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia (AP) — Russia’s controversial floating nuclear power plant has headed out for its first sea voyage.
The floating plant, the Akademik Lomonosov, was towed Saturday out of the St. Petersburg shipyard where it was constructed. It is to be towed through the Baltic Sea and around the northern tip of Norway to Murmansk, where its reactors are to be loaded with nuclear fuel.
The Lomonosov is to be put into service in 2019 in the Arctic off the coast of Chukotka in the far east, providing power for a port town and for oil rigs.
The project has been widely criticized by environmentalists. Greenpeace has dubbed it a “floating Chernobyl.”
I just passed by this because I don't tend to care much for what a bunch of music producer sanctioned parrots have to say but on second look, the passages you quoted just highlight the deeply ingrained racism and condescension they spew. And yet Liberals eat that shit up. Wow, Kanye may actually do more damage to the Democrat Party than they themselves have done. I almost didn't think that was possible.
