Apparently Kanye was on Rivergator and citygators favorite show Tucker Carlson. I just heard about it, he wore a white lives matter shirt, and thought of you guys. When Carlson pushed West on why he thinks people consider that a controversial statement, West said that it's because he's not acting in a way the media thinks he should act. "Because the same people that have stripped us of our identity and labeled us as a color, have told us what it means to be Black," West said. kanye also said he received a lot of hate and threats from the party of intolerance. Lol. Libbies are filled to the brim with hate. I’m sure they will vilify West as being a loon because he doesn’t fit inside the libbie tent.

Kanye just said he is going to go "defcon 3" on Jewish people. Would they be wrong for saying he doesn't fit inside the tent?
I would assume he's doing all this for marketing purposes, but I don't fully comprehend what market he intends to tap.

So tucker encouraging an act that will fan the flames of racial strife? And now picking it up and promoting it.
Not promoting it. I found it interesting. Seems media and Kanye are all doing the same thing…provoking us to get ratings.
Kanye said Bush 43 doesn't care about Black people, suggesting that Black peoples' lives mattered less. Isn't that kind of the point of the phrase Black Lives Matter? On one hand, he seems to be saying he's just not going to do what people tell him he should be doing. On the other, one quote I read made me think he thought White Lives Matter is an amusing slogan because it's so obvious that White lives matter to society. Hard for me to reconcile his statements on race. The statements about Jewish people are even more concerning. I think Pete Davidson's father was ethnically Jewish; maybe Kanye is still fuming about him. I am reluctant to even talk much about Kanye given his admitted mental health issues, so there's that as well.
I guess technically you could say I did by posting it here. But I’m not promoting the slogan white lives matter and I don’t know that anyone else is either that I’m aware of.
Sure. But if thats the case, every OP is promoting something. @PITBOSS is promoting the war in Ukraine. @rivergator is promoting Tubervilles racist remarks. @G8tas is promoting cop shootings.
Who put the cocaine in Bluke's coffee today? I can't remember the last time you started a thread AND posted more than once or twice the same morning. Good on you man. No comment on KW as I hate his music and don't care what he thinks about anything, sort of like how Magas think of actors, unless they are Magas.
Thanks, I think. Agree though, hate the “music” and really don’t care that much about his political points. But I got a click from ya and seemingly a compliment? I’ll take it.
It was/is. I don't post much these days as I find arguing and hate brings me down more than inflation but I check in most days and like seeing you & Tilly posting as I think you are reasonable men.
Not really. As long as you go in understanding that everything he does and says are about him and keeping himself relevant. Personally I think he's a slimebucket. A lousy musician and a terrible human being. EDIT: Assuming you meant KW, not Bluke
