For anyone who knows me personally, I’ve been enjoying my life recently minding my business and few stories have sparked my interest to comment on but Kanye managed to do it. It wasn’t enough that we had to elect a President openly attacking civil rights, people receiving Election Day texts alerting them to report to the nearest cotton field but now Kanye went completely out of his way to sell SWASTIKAS by way of a Super Bowl ad.

So just how did he do this? Well the ad was approved of him sitting in a dentist chair, shot with a iPhone promoting his brand site Yeezy.com. Pretty harmless, right? He’s got money to blow and if he wants to do it in the laziest way possible, why the f*** not? Well this is Kanye we’re talking about. He immediately changed his site to only sell one item, a swastika t-shirt for $20.

While Kanye’s ad might have passed the legal litmus test, selling him an ad to begin with was problematic. After all he spent days on Twitter declaring himself a nazi, calling Hitler cool, posting porn, saying black people shouldn’t be offended by a swastika, etc. And what happened to cancelling him after he said slavery was a choice or any of the other unhinged right wing remarks he’s made in recent years? Kanye is not okay and he hasn’t been in a long time. From running on stage ruining Taylor Swift’s big moment years ago after being on the red carpet with a bottle of henny to threatening to kill his ex Kim Kardashian’s new boyfriend Pete Davidson numerous times publicly. But only because he has money does he get to do these things. His Twitter (X) account was just deactivated over his antics. We suggest other companies do the same. The normalizing of racism on this type of scale simply cannot be allowed.
