Dude let him back on. He has no one to blame but himself

Kanye is trying to stay relevant and doesn't have healthy support to advise him nor is he emotionally intelligent enough to listen if he did so let the theater play until his money runs out

Pretty weak-sauce. Elon getting sensitive over things he never saw. Just a reminder, the swastika is used all over eastern Asia, as a Buddhist symbol. Probably should ban Asians now.

What happened to “freedom of speech elonmusk I guess advertisers pulling out IS a problem for you huh? How about it now lexfridman? Just going to continue to s*ck Elon’s b*pls or will you post how bad this is for Freedumb?

We already know that Kayne is missing a screw in his head.🤣

Nazi is short for = National SOCIALIST. Look it up. I can finally say that without being censored by the left!

Yet gladly posts astoundingly ridiculous lies about pelosi and thinks hunter Biden dick picks are some kind of great conspiracy

Sure.. for blowing up their cover..

👌👌👌 elonmusk

'Posting swastikas in what obviously is not a good way is an incitement to violence,' Elon Musk said during a live Q&A on Twitter.

Ye needs some mental help. He is, or maybe was, a billionaire. Have that much financial security then ur mind takes a deep dive bro dark waters. Poor Ye, no one close by to tell him to get help, sucks.

Sure Elon. You were fine with keeping him on Twitter after he had done 6 interviews saying every kind of anti Semitic comment known to man. He should’ve never met him back on.

Elon is really something special, sticking up for values!

I think he is in need of some mental health treatment why would post that .

😂😂😂🤣🤭🤭🤭🤦😱👊🔥❌ Sounds really scary.😭 Thank God it never reached that extent.🙏 Angermanagement

Loving the new “anti-hate speech” policy Musk is applying here. He will personally take care of it 😂

Does every zillionaire act like a petulant child?

Petition to get Ye and elonmusk in the boxing ring. Make it happen

Free Speech is BACK baby!

“West's Twitter account was suspended on Friday after he tweeted an image of a swastika inside a Star of David.” I mean, technically.

Nice! Well done! sandeep_t0mar is also true.

There is a difference between swastika & NAZI'S symbol.
