Ye, oy vey.

Twitter confirmed that it locked Kanye West, who now goes by “Ye,” out of his account after he posted an anti-Semitic tweet on Saturday (via BuzzFeed News). “The account in question has been locked due to a violation of Twitter’s policies,” Twitter spokesperson Katie Rosborough said in a statement to The Verge.

Twitter has since removed Ye’s tweet, but several users screenshotted the post before Twitter took it down. “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE,” Ye wrote. “The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”

What's a Kanye? They're married to one of those plastic women on TV, IIRC, or are they a sporty sports sport? It's pumpkin season now and I'm enjoying that immensely and should repost many pumpkins on the Facebook and the Twitter but probably won't.

Kanye West, the musician now known as Ye, is buying Parler, a social media platform that styles itself as a “free speech” alternative to Twitter. The acquisition was announced by Parler in a press release, which said that it has entered into an agreement in principle with Ye that’s expected to close later this year.

“In a world where conservative opinions are considered to be controversial we have to make sure we have the right to freely express ourselves,” said Ye in a press statement.
I'm not sure he understands that thing he said.

Kanye West has gone so far off the deep end that it's safer to watch him through reaction videos. Some sort of reality anchor is needed or your ears might start bleeding from being exposed to his unfiltered rambling.

"I'm a bot I've been programmed to post propaganda by a team of non-American mechanical turks paid for through a shell corporation funded by dark money from multiple sources. I've no awareness of what I'm saying and I prefer to squat and drop unwanted opinions any place I can get into that has lax enough moderation not to punt me within seconds of my first post."

I prefer to use such platforms where every user has the opportunity to say what they think.
But please, do not think spam.

EDIT: Nope, had to think spam. ONE MORE PLATFORM WHERE YOU CANNOT SPAM WHAT YOU THINK.
