Elon's excuse for banning Ye was puerile i.e. incitement to violence. This reaction is a public display meant to appease the advertisers and stop the hemorrhaging of ad revenue. The symbol that Ye posted, and was banned for, wasn't even a swastika. Is Musk now to become the new fascist 'moderator' of Twitter? Is this the juvenile reason he bought the platform? He said he was appalled that humor wasn't allowed on Twitter - at least he kept his promise there by making himself laughable.

No free speech when it comes to Jews. You are also required to believe the history Ashkenazis made up about themselves and either bow, grovel or be in fear of offending them.

And so it begins.

JD I referenced your stack in the article I wrote about musk, that explains why we will see this more and more.

For all those crowning Elon, a crusader against the left and evil twitter past, he will continue to show you, that you were mistaken.

Now whether you think that Kanye (I refuse to use the two letter reference, lest I sound like an old Englishman, referring to someone else..."ye sir have insulted my house"), is crazy, trolling or serious, he has a right to voice his opinion, like we all do.

Musk, however, just showed that HE is the arbiter of what is allowed and what is not...this is NO DIFFERENT, than the old twitter model, enforced by the woke beta drones.

From here the slope gets slippery. What if a polarizing figure...say Banon or Alex Jones takes to twitter and trashes Tesla, Space X, Neuralink, and the X App...and Musk feels like punching them too...incitement to violence...so they are blocked, banned, de-platformed?? Is twitter jail back...but wait we have a new crusader/savior of free speech!!

Kanye's tweets didn't incite violence or cause a death, that we know of. Of course the premise is, his comments have the potential to do so, causing harm and deaths.

So will Elon, then ban all the reporters, pundit, politicians, celebs, sports figures and sheeple, who are supporting/pushing the jab?? Their comments have the potential to coerce and incite people to believe in and take the jab, having the potential to cause harm and death.

My point is, people need to be honest with themselves and admit, that Musk will be no different than the last twitter regime. Sure he fired a bunch of twitter beta drones and carried than sink through the doors with a "I'm going to wreck this place smile", but he didn't promise to be anything different than what was already there...the public themselves, pushed that narrative...foolishly.

I think the only reason Elon cares is because of the threat of investigation from the Biden administration and the European Union. So in order to satisfy them, he suspended Ye. But if public opinion is strong enough Ye will be back. Listen to my podcast for more thoughts on the matter. https://open.substack.com/pub/justingaffneysamuels/p/kanye-proves-mr-e-is-right-about?r=6512g&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Just more evidence Elon doesn't practice or believe in the principles he's (temporarily) pretending to honor to ingratiate himself to the liberty movement ... and that like all liberals, it's all about Elon and his "feelings."

Considering America's feelings about Nazzism, I agree with Elon's censoring West because it will offend the rising population of conservatives verses the radical left progressives who love everything about socialism.

Personally, I agree with Kanye West's beliefs about the Jews, who through the direction of the ADL try and control what is said about Israel and its grip on our government and our people, to keep giving monies to Israel so they can continue fighting with their Muslim neighbors.

Believe me the Israelis are no angels as can be seen in how they treat the Muslims under their jurisdictions. They are almost as bad as what we are now seeing in China. When any group of people try that hard to keep their truth hidden, you have to know they are also hiding something important. here it is in one sentence: "The louder they yell and scream, the closer you know you are to hitting the bull's eye." The ADL is essentially, "Chicken Little" !

That symbol is totally disgusting. Hitler and the Nazis were completely evil and have no redeeming value.

Ye was asking for and deserved to be banned. If we believe in freedom of speech, however, we should not be banning people for their viewpoints no matter how disgusting. Put Ye in lock down where his tweets cannot be followed or retweeted. Then as Mr. Musk said, he has his freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.

Kanye is beginning to be reminiscent of M Jackson. A sorry little excuse for humankind, a punk unhappy with who he is, unhappy with his humanity, unhappy with his race, unhappy with his station in life, as time passes on he is continually finding all the more money he amasses makes him even less happy with himself and the world around him, he simply can’t buy enough “stuff” to make and keep his self happy and content. The more crap he buys the unhappier he becomes. There is no doubt his new found “friends” espousing their “white” supremacist NAZI loving attitude illustrates more and more just how happily ignorant his lack of knowledge and less than pee poor education is leaving him wide open to believe every cock and bull lie that deceptively sounds good to him. His knowledge of biblical matters is less than zilch again leaving him open to believing anything passed word of mouth from which 99+% of the devil’s lies are spread by those self same lying tongues. It’s not what goes into a man that defiles him but what comes out. Is his music peace, love and Jesus praise or rage, hatred and violence? He would prefer to alter the world around him to agree with his inadequacies than to change his inferiorities to please the world of mankind around him. A real psycho sicko control freak. Which, undeniably, in his mind and actions puts him #1 and God #2. There is no doubt there was collusion and lying by ommission when he blindsided Trump in bringing that walking festering decaying rot devil’s advocate, the white supremacist, with him to MAL unannounced which additionally shows total disregard and a complete lack of respect on his part. The ignorant tiny pea brain of his is further proof of what a fool he is totally deserving of losng that ton of easy come easy go cash. At this rate he’ll once again soon be running dime bags on his old ghetto corner singing up more hateful rage laden words flowing from his “all loving ever loving little pumping heart”.
