Rapper Kanye West ranted about Jews in a series of posts on X on Friday morning, saying that antisemitism was “made up” by Jewish people to protect themselves.
As well as referencing his wife’s outfit in a post on X — saying that it was not a “stunt” — on Friday, he also spoke about the Jewish community and praised Nazis.
“Any Jewish person that does business with me needs to know I don’t like or trust any Jewish person,” he said, adding that he was “completely sober.”
In another post, he said: “Jewish people actually hate white people and use Black people.”
He also said he “loves Hitler” and referred to himself as a Nazi.
In yet another post, he said that Jewish people and white people were different, and highlighted a centuries-old antisemitic trope that Jews are money-hungry and greedy.
“You can get money with Jewish people but they always gonna steal,” he wrote. “Jews hate whites because of the Germans” responsible for the Second World War, he said.
“Yet he continues to be invited to the Grammys as if he had done nothing wrong,” wrote Torres. “West should be ostracized for his rabid antisemitism.”
More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet

“At this very moment, (Kanye West) is going on yet another antisemitic rampage. It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite. More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet,” the group said in a post on X. “It is obvious that Ye has not learned his lesson the first time, when Adidas ended its partnership with him, following our call to do so at the time.”
“If you really think antisemitism ‘doesn’t matter,’ then you just don’t care about Jews,” said Mazzig.
“While there was no centralized, systematic program targeting Black people for murder, many Black people were imprisoned, forcibly sterilized, and murdered by the Nazis,” the publication explained.
“In the end,” he said, “I think it’s important people know where he stands. Anyone who says ‘I’m a Nazi’ or ‘I love Hitler’ is deranged.”
“A German company, with a horrifying Nazi past, is in bed with one of the biggest antisemites in America today,” Stop Antisemitism said in a post on X in October 2022.
West’s posts remain on X as of Friday afternoon.
