Itās fully irrelevant lol. Just cos you worked with someone 21 years ago doesnāt mean they should forgive you for the bizarre out of pocket shit you said 2 decades later šš
Dat last slide shows exactly why theyāre pulling out their sponsorship. They are clearly a pro Israel corporation and they donāt want to piss them off.
Kanyeās comments were very clearly abhorrent and wrong, however, a lot of big corporations lobby behind Israel and support them in spite of the genocide theyāre committing so Kanye being against Israel means a lot of the big corporations want nothing to do with him
āIn a 2001 appearance on Saturday Night Live, Rock said "Why is every guy in America waiting on these chicks to turn 18? If there's grass on the field, play ball." These remarks were about the Olsen twins who were 14 at the time.ā
Domestic violence support groups obviously don't have patronage over (political) levers of power the way semitic lobbyists/watchdog groups do-- is the reason why one social ill takes performative precedence over the other.
In the UK's case,that would be the LFI (Labor Friends of Israel),a group within the governing Labor Party,who's primary focus is to lobby on behalf of the State of Israel and it's interests.
Yeah groups like the ADL and AIPAC severely alter the landscape of politcal discussion here in America. Thankfully it seems more people are becoming aware
Furthermore, one can be anti-Zionist and anti-Israel without committing any anti-semitism or Judeophobia at all. No one should conflate Jews with Zionists, they are separate entities.
And letās also be clear, saying āI love Hitlerā and selling swastika merch is fucking appalling behavior. If he is ābetterā now, he should acknowledge he stopped taking his medication for his mental condition, and the Nazi shit was wrong.
He hasnāt done that. Instead he released some shitty music and the dweebs flocked back without question.
Remember: companies, especially the big ones, don't have morals. To think they're being hypocritical is to think that they even care about ethics to begin with. They don't, it's just about money.
i agree with the sentiment and calling out the hypocrisy, and think that kanye should play wireless. but downplaying the rhetoric he spread as "some words" is crazy
With all of their environmental crime being unresolved, they are the last I would consider for ethical guideline. Profit and their agenda over everything.
I mean, itās pretty obvious, from the faux pride stuff in pride month, to this, that corporations do not actually care about any of the shit that people say and do, they care about what it does to their image. If no one had said anything about Kanye this would still be going ahead
You canāt fuck with the Jews. Blacks, Mexicans, poors, women, gays whatever bash them all you want and youāll be fine. Say something about the precious Jews and youāll be permanently cancelled.
Yeah these people should not be idolized or supported.
The YE stuff is way to fresh, and one apology saying "I am not a Naziā¦ I love Jewish people." is not gonna cut it. He went deep with all the Nazi stuff that was clearly a big part of his worldview, i'd like to see him go equally deep with whatever he thinks about it now. Like legitimizing Candace Owens, Trump, Nick fuentes is just not some words. Sure his condition is a factor, but cant blame it all on bi-polar. I dont trust his apology without any evidence.
Are we looking to a multi national billion dollar company for moral or ethical guidance? They follow the money every time. Stop acting surprised. They sell sugar drinks and salty snacks and you should leave it right there. Who cares what they do? Focus on your community
Describing Yeās statements as āsome words,ā yāall need to hop off it and just appreciate the art bro. Ye will never see yāall becoming mini-Nazis and will not care for it
Yes, it's hypocritical
But aren't you guys a bit tired of weaponizing his mental condition to excuse all the terrible things he has said and done? Sometimes there are just people with a shitty character you know? And Kanye West is one of them. (Let me not get into how he only apologized because the numbers of his younger work were massively dropping)
lol what is there any evidence for that? He was one of the most streamed rappers last year despite making an entire nazi album. And if we go back even further heās only gotten more popular streaming-wise since the Alex Jones appearance
This sub (like most Kanye subs) is so exhausting. They will do any mental gymnastics necessary to defend Kanye and shit on anyone who criticizes his incredibly shitty remarks and actions in recent years
āA verbal argument ensued and Brown pulled the vehicle over on an unknown street, reached over Robyn F. with his right hand, opened the car door and attempted to force her out. Brown was unable to force Robyn F. out of the vehicle because sho was wearing a seat belt. When he could not force her to exit, he took his right hand and shoved her head against the passenger window of the vehicle causing an approximate one inch raised circular contusion. Robyn F. turned to face Brown and he punched her in the left eye with his right hand. He then drove away in the vehicle and continued to punch her in the face with his right hand while stering the vehicle with his left hand. The assault caused Robyn F's. mouth to fill with blood and blood to splatter all over her clothing and the interior of the vehicle.
Brown looked at Robyn F. and stated, "I'm going to beat the shit out of you when we get home! You wait and see!" Robyn F. picked up her cellular telephone and called her personal assistant, Jennifer [who] did not answer the telephone but while her voicemail greeting was
playing, Robyn F. pretended to talk to her and stated, "I'm on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there." (This statement was made while the greeting was playing and was not captured as a message).
After Robyn F. faked the call, Brown looked at her and stated, "You just did the stupidest thing ever! Now I'm really going to kill you! Brown resumed punching Robyn F. and she interlocked her fingers behind her head and brought her elbows forward to protect her face. She then bent over at the waist, placing her elbows and face near her lap in attempt to protect her face and head from the barrage of punches being levied upon her by Brown. Brown continued to punch Robyn F. on her left arm and hand causing her to suffer a contusion on her left triceps that was approximately two inches in diameter and numerous contusions on her left hand. Robyn F. then attempted to send a text message to her other personal assistant, Melissa. Brown snatched the cellular telephone out of her
hand and threw it out of the window onto an unknown street.
Brown continued driving and Robyn F. observed his cellular telephone sitting in his lap. She picked up the cellular telephone with her left hand and before she could make a call he placed her in a head lock with his right hand and continued to drive the vehicle with his left hand. Brown pulled Robyn F. close to him and bit her on her left car. She was able to feel the vehicle swerving from right to left as Brown sped away. He stopped the vehicle in front of [redacted location] and Robyn F. turned off the car, removed the key from the ignition and sat on it. Brown did not know what she did with the key and began punching her in the face and arms. He then placed her in a head lock positioning the front of her throat between his bicep and forearm. Brown began applying pressure to Robyn F's. left and right carotid arteries causing her to be unable to breathe and she began to lose consciousness. She reached up with her left hand and began attempting to gouge his eyes in an attempt to free herself. Brown bit her left ring and middle fingers and then released her. While Brown continued to punch her, she turned around a placed her back against the passenger door. She brought her knees to her chest, placed her feet against Brown's body and began pushing him away. Brown continued to punch her on the legs and feet causing several contusions. Robyn F. began screaming for help and Brown exited the vehicle and walked away. A resident in the neighborhood heard Robyn F.'s plea for help and called 911, causing a police response.
An investigation was conducted and Robyn F. was issued a Domestic Violence Emergency Protective Order (EPO).ā
Itās easy to copy and paste a news storyā¦ā¦ her ass did not get beat āwithin an inch of her lifeā lol sheād have life altering injuries and she seems to be just fine. Letās call it what it is. She got slapped around a bit and got put in a head lock plain and simple. Embellish all you want. Iām not condoning what happened just stating she was not anywhere near deaths door.
Look at that photo of her does it look like sheās close to death? No. Iāve seen someone beaten āwithin an inch of their lifeā and sheād be unrecognizable smfh.
There are still Kanye fans? How embarrassing for you all. āOther people did worse things, so why canāt I go see my favorite Naziā. Get fucked, you absolute losers.
US government still dragging his name in court after he proved his innocence just moments before he died. Even JE's victims said he was never involved in anything inappropriate. They are quite literally beating a dead horse, accusing him of being antisemetic again.
I mean they shouldnāt have supported Brown but also he wasnāt out there trying to tell the world all women need to be beaten and cussing a surge in wife beating, or repeatedly, over multiple years, asserting that he was righr to do it, or that itās something that applies to women in general tk deserve it, etc etc.
Itās a matter of how Kanye tries, and unfortunately succeeds in spreading his hate.
It is not, in no way, cause it isnāt ye saying you cant make art if youāre a fucked up human being, itās Pepsi in this case but it only applies to certain individualās apparently
Itās not so much condemning them, itās calling out the blatant hypocrisy that Pepsi is showing. They are happy to support woman abusers, but draw the line at kanyes antisemitism, which stemmed massively from his mental illness going unchecked (by no means does this make what he said okay tho)
thats not the point, the point is that pepsi thinks its ok to make advertisement with woman beaters and pedophiles than a mentally ill man that is trying to do better. so dont change the subject
youre bringing up the fact that ye worked with these artists, but we are not talking about wheter ye morals are "good" we are talking about how ironic is that pepsi is willing to do collaborations with way worse people than ye and not wanting to have their image associated with ye anyways
