Just a year after this happened and it seems like everybody has forgotten about it. Yea he lost his adidas partnership but nowadays, he’s been a welcomed surprise guest at Travis shows, I’m hearing his songs being popped off on in clubs and parties, and he’s been going viral on TikTok with tons of praise and no criticism or mention of him being a Nazi in the comments

Is it Americans having the memory of a goldfish? Americans not really hating Hitler/Nazis/anti-semitism that much? Kanye’s music is just too good to ignore? Americans just loving to deepthroat and worship anybody that’s famous?

    The truth is he is functionally a clown but the clown isn’t just him as a person it’s his entire brand. The idea of a Black nazi is actually quite comfortable in the American mind. He is the vindication clown. He is the reflection of Taylor Swift who is the validation/victimization clown.

    celebrities as specialized clowns is actually a pretty good way to frame the american incarnation of bread and circus.
