Freedom Of Speech: Elon Musk Suspends Kanye West Twitter Account. by adamusuleiman11: 7:09am On Dec 02, 2022 |
Hours after Kanye West tweeted an antisemitic image that included a Swastika inside a star of David, the rapper’s account was suspended. Twitter owner Elon Musk confirmed the suspension around 9:00 p.m. on Thursday. “I tried my best. Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended,” Musk tweeted. But in a series of posts to Trump-owned Truth Social shortly after, West posted screenshots of the suspension message he received that indicate his suspension will only be for 12 hours. The suspension caps – we think – a disturbing day for the increasingly unhinged, openly antisemitic rapper. Earlier in the day, West appeared on Infowars alongside white supremacist Nick Fuentes, who has become a regular associate of West’s in recent weeks. During the interview with host Alex Jones, West defended Adolf Hitler and made several antisemitic statements. So many, in fact, that even Jones, a right wing extremist who among other things engaged in a years-long campaign of harassment against the parents of children murdered in the Sandy hook massacre, became uncomfortable Later in the day, West tweeted “YE24 LOVE EVERYONE #Lovespeech,” an apparent reference to his stated intent to run for president in 2024. The tweet was accompanied by an image of a star of David with a Swastika inside it. Multiple Twitter users reported the tweet. But in what can only be seen as a perfect encapsulation of the trainwreck Twitter has become since Musk bought it, they were informed the image — again, of a literal Swastika in an unmistakably antisemitic context — didn’t violate any of Twitter’s policies. It appears that eventually, Musk himself personally intervened to have tweet deleted. https://techcrunch.com/2022/12/01/elon-musk-suspends-kanye-wests-account-for-breaking-twitter-rules/

Kanye is extremely smart and many blacks will come to understand this later.... But I doubt if he has the intention to run for any political office..... |
