What are you suggesting? I'd love to hear more.

I'm suggesting exactly what I stated in no uncertain terms in my post. Is there something about my post you'd like to discuss?

what happened to Kanye

His lawyers explained where his antisemitism will lead and he wisely took their advice.

You give a pompous answer as if it's a fact. You're incorrect. His Jewish lawyers quit on him and did it through newspaper ads:

You sure the lawyers he was dealing with were Jewish? Is that a Jewish only law firm?

Well let's see, the attorneys from the Greenberg Taurig firm that represented Kanye are as follows:

Josh Raskin
Julie Bookbinder
Nicole Glinski
Marty Kaminsky
Allan Kassenoff
And Scott Bornstein

It would seem that Jews are incredibly overrepresented in that high stakes law firm and aren't following diversity hire protocols....

It's funny to see all the people saying Kanye was right while coincidentally leaving out him saying things like, "I admire Hitler."

Only one of those names has a Hebrew origin.

a reply to: AgarthaSeed

Yea.. cause "going defcon 3 on jewish people" and saying "i like hiter" are just some objective facts about jews. No hate or bigotry there. Just some facts.

I'm all for criticizing Israel, but I don't see how one can justify what Kayne said without being anti-semetic.

It's not like Kayne discussed how the powers that be control certain power structure and some happen to be jewish. He just went on a batsh!t crazy rant against jewish people while praising hitler.

It was pretty fun to watch the Alex Jones interview - but you can't be serious in agreeing with him.. can you?

Sure thing man 👍🏼 🤣

The others are just Polish nationals I suppose.

a reply to: Xcalibur254

Yea.. not only did he go on a full blown hitler was right rant - he also didn't say anything coherent. Even Alex Jones was shocked. That's saying something.

a reply to: AgarthaSeed

Ahh I see... you know all those lawyers genetic backgrounds, religious affiliations and such?

Granted I know Kanye was not stable I get that. But he still had these deals in place with Adidas and others that showed at least some bussiness acumen if you will.

Its just weird to me all those deals and that money gone. and I would get it if he was continuing to say what he belived in.

But to just stop saying it....

a reply to: Xcalibur254

For me its not about Kanye being right or wrong its just weird that he is willing to lose all his money to say some thing that he feels is right. and then silence.

Come on Kanye knows people has contacts its not like everyone is just goign to say no I am not going to give Kanye a platfrom.

So did he take his medication and its all good, or did someone or soembodies say you need to stop saying these things.

Lost it all. Gained a new young wife. Ex, endorsements, $$ gone....

77.6% of Polish Americans are Roman Catholic. Only 0.3% are Jewish.

wow damn, you lot sure love to rattle on about these overaching, byzantine rube goldberg machine-style cabal conspiracies but you have very little awareness of even basic mental health concerns.

What happened to Kanye?

he followed the extremely basic archetypal trajectory of an unmedicated shizoaffective disorder, essentially to the letter. he had a manic phase, where over time he built up a grandiose personal narrative of persecution and paranoia, eventually taking over and derailing his life.
After that there is typically a burnout phase, during which he is probably capable of only minimal human interaction and is more than likely keeping to himself, staying home, refusing to answer the phone, and going by the schizoaffectives i've known, eating a lot of pizza and stacking the boxes in his room.
If he's lucky, a period of relative normalcy and lucidity will follow once the burnout abates and he'll be more capable of regular human conduct, potentially for months or years before the cycle starts again.

here's a question; why do so many posters on ats lean into endorsing the grandiose personal delusions to the point of literally defending the 'i like hitler' bit, and how many of us should think about getting a psych check up?

a reply to: American-philosopher

He publicly showed admiration for Hitler in Hollywood. And he's not Mel Gibson, he's a pretentious pseudointellectual rapper with horrible taste in shoes. It's the Hollywood equivalent of "death-by-cop". He will be sacrificed at The Museum of Tolerance by Century City.

It's also going to be hard to find representation.

Two groups you gotta take care of not going after in the industry. Jews and Scientologists. The former won't give you any work and the latter will just sue you.

He got married.
He literally got married and they went on a honeymoon traveling.

a reply to: Xcalibur254

Did you just feel a breeze go over your head?

So you blame him for his mental illness? That is very unkind to those of us who suffer from mental illnesses.

He may be laying low while having an episode. I try to do that so that people I know are not bothered or troubled by what's going on with me. It takes a few years before you figure out how to do that.

He's not missing he just got married again, and is living his life. The only difference is that no one is bothering to giving him a platform anymore. Years of being a schizo and off the wall kook got him in this position. He had it coming one day. It's really not a surprise.
