Kanye West also told Cuomo: “Black people are all also Jew – I classify as Jew also – so I actually can’t be an antisemite. The term is actually not factual.”

host, who explained that the rapper’s line of thinking that Black people are exempt from being antisemitic isn’t a common understanding, he expressed a responsibility to challenge conventional thinking if it means reaching what he believes to be the truth.

“I don’t have to understand or accept, because they’re not willing to understand or accept,” West added. “That’s the reason why I’m not backing down. People have had their careers destroyed. That’s why they keep on saying Ye’s dangerous, because he will keep talking.” Even when Cuomo attempted to explain the danger of attributing unfortunate experiences with business executives in the music industry to their lineage or faith, the rapper spun the narrative back to Black people being “owned by the Jewish media” and chanted “la, la, la, la, la” over Cuomo’s instant rebuttals, uninterested in hearing any perspective other than his own.

“I know you are intelligent and understand that when you target people because of their faith, other people may do the same,” Cuomo said, further adding that, despite whatever West believes his intentions to be rooted within, many of his so-called points are inherently antisemitic. “We don’t want to tolerate that.”

Meanwhile, West suggested that if his comments are going to continue to be paired with a “crazy narrative” in the media, stemming largely from his online targeting of Pete Davidson and his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, they should at least come with descriptors that he finds more fitting. “They never call me a billionaire,” he complained. “Tycoon, billionaire, visionary, inventor – these are never used.

This monkey must be locked up

I think Kanye West statement were misleading thoughts and not accurate. You have to ask Kanye West what he really thinks .

WTAF?

Maybe this will help to expose the absurdity of religions? 🤞🤷‍♂️

As someone from a Jewish family, I don’t hate Kanye, nor will I stop listening to his music, but he’s def off his rocker. saying one uneducated, insensitive thing after another. But I do think it stems from affluent ignorance rather than any actual malice toward Jews

Ditching Ye was one of the best decisions she ever made.

We are the original Jews doe? He didn’t lie and I hate that this country don’t tell the truth.

He belongs in a straight jacket

there are black's that are jews, but ''classifying'' as a jew and following (religiously) the old testament laws are 2 different things.

It's apparent that no one in Kanye's life loves him enough to get him the help he needs.

Seek help now

we don’t want him

Yikes. Help needed stat

Keep digging lol

This dude has been going through a mental crisis for years. How long will he last?

Please report on Kanye's very recent death threats.

Anti-Semite who admits he has never read a book now dictating his own imaginary rules of linguistics.

Evidence that he has mental health issues but the racists want to cancel him.

If Kanye West is Jewish, then I am an African-American. Why not?

wow.. dude literally sounds like a racist on reddit
