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.”

“At a time of unprecedented antisemitism, there can be no mistaking this incitement for exactly what it is. We call on Elon Musk to remove him from X,” they added.

Friends star David Schwimmer also spoke out against the musician, taking to Instagram to call out both the business mogul and West’s presence on X.

“Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That’s twice as many people than the number of Jews in existence. His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews,” he wrote.

“I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that he identifies as a Nazi (which implies he wants to exterminate ALL marginalized communities including, his own) or the fact that there is not sufficient OUTRAGE to remove and ban him from all social media at this point,” he said, adding: “Silence is complicity.”

Three days after unleashing a string of antisemitic, misogynistic, and racist posts, the ‘Donda’ rapper seemingly deactivated his own X account.

Before logging off, he left behind a bizarre farewell message, thanking Musk for letting him vent. “I’m logging out of Twitter. I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent. It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board,” he said, cited by The Independent.

“It was like an Ayahuasca trip. Love all of you who gave me your energy and attention. To we connect again. Good afternoon and good night,” he added.

The 53-year-old X owner finally addressed the controversy after three days, revealing that West’s account had been marked as “NSFW [not safe for work].”

“You should not be seeing that anymore,” the billionaire added.
