i get what dude is saying but like no bro

naw man you're posting nonsense

Its a lot of words and u dont even use half of them correctly

“I like hitler” isnt a dogwhistle its a loud speaker lmfao

this type of thinking we could have got away with (as dumb as we were) during 2018 but this s*** is beyond dangerous, it’s not worth giving it this much thought fr

like he’s obviously not a white supremacist but regardless he’s using yt supremacist and fascist tactics to gain political leverage

that’s quite literally evil no matter what kinda platform he’s gonna have

ur whole argument also falls apart when you realize he has no platform. he doesn’t even have a simplified layman’s version of a plan to get what he wants

he’s brain dead bro give it up

the ambiguity and controversy is literally the whole point though

Imagine you're in his position. You want to become president. You have the media clout to get your name into headlines, and if you play your cards right, you could end up on stage during the republican primaries (of course, you know the DNC is rigged so you'd have no chance that way). Okay, well your biggest opponent will be Donald Trump. Basically, if you want to even have a chance, you will have to appeal to Trump voters more than Trump.

Keep that in mind when you're trying to understand what's going on. Yes, Ye could've been much clearer with his wording, he could have run a straightforward, positive, nice little Christian campaign. But tell me honestly, would that have any chance at all of beating Trump in the Republican primaries?

Kanye, a true cautionary tale

The human soul on the road to billions

Context clues. Yes it's not how we'd traditionally use the word "dogwhistle". Ye means something pretty uncontroversial, but the way he's saying it makes it sound very very controversial. Usually the two are flipped, I get it. What's much more important to me is the aspect of Ye saying something that is interpreted by extremists as endorsement but still has plausible deniability. I couldn't think of a better word to use than "dogwhistle". I could have said "doublespeak" but that's more for institutional lingo used by common people, I'm talking about misleading speech used by political figures to gain power, which is definitely more in line with "dogwhistle".

I was hoping you could figure that out yourself. Honestly, I'm pretty sure you did but chose to nitpick regardless.

yes it definitely is worth giving thought to. Someone throws a wrench in the system and your immediate response is "don't talk about it, don't even think about it". That's a huge tell that some ideological f***ery is going on. I think it's always worth giving thought to the ideology you operate under, especially when there's some f***ery going on.

only in the sense that all good politicians are performance artists.

streets saying kanye going on adin ross stream?

sorry brother I think he very obviously endorsed Hitler

again, it's really not that challenging. If there's something that doesn't make sense to you, point it out. Maybe I can clarify.

Im not nitpicking, the whole story ur running with is all off

He’s mentally unwell, this isnt a political chess move

he endorsed Hitler, but only in the sense that he endorses absolutely everyone and everything. It's just continuation of the "love everyone, even love your enemy" doctrine. Again, the fact that he follows "I love Hitler" up with "I love the Jews" should make that pretty obvious, right?

Then he has to be clearer that Hitler and the Nazis are "the enemy" because when he says things like he thought Hitler and the Nazis were cool and that he IS a Nazi and that he loveesssss Hitler, it doesnt seem that way.

I understand what you're saying but imo the statements are just as gross, especially taken with Holocaust denial and antisemitism and alt-right associations. The Love Everyone bit doesn't save this

so you're telling me you're convinced this isn't planned out?

Ye's a presidential candidate. He's been planning a presidential campaign for years at this point and he's got a team of political strategists working for him, some of whom planned Trump's 2016 campaign. Right when Ye launches his presidential campaign, he gets himself on every single news outlet using remarkably similar methods to Trump in 2016.
But I suppose that's all just coincidence?

One thing is for certain, Ye is not worth this much brainpower

again, not being clearer is the entire point of what he's doing rn.

the entire strategy rests on being vague. Remember, the immediate goal of his campaign right now is to steal Trump's most passionate voters, aka racists and Q-anon. Tell me honestly, does he even have the slimmest chance of doing this if he's clear about his (honestly, pretty basic) positions?

Considering his rhetoric is a literal alt-right caricature ill agree with your premise for the sake of the argument

How would that be the most effective strategy? I genuinely don't believe he can garner any actual political support outside of a very small minority of racists and white supremacists and conspiracy theorists.

it's not the entire strategy. He has to get the media unequivocally against him. If he wants to pull off the Trump thing again, he must make every liberal just completely despise him. He must become the antithesis of the democratic party's ideology. Basically, he must guarantee that the status quo will do its very best to sell the act when he runs a campaign on being anti status quo. The idea is to run as the anti-DNC candidate, even more anti-DNC than Trump.

Once he has that guarantee, he can move on to targeting republican moderates, and then finally he can target fence-sitters. But without first securing Trump's base, he has no realistic chance.

Honestly, even if he does manage to secure Trump's base, there's still not a realistic chance, but it would give Ye the best odds he could possibly have, imo.

I'm assuming you're a liberal who lives in a liberal area and talks to a lot of liberals. If this strategy makes you hate Kanye, then it's working. You have to keep that in mind when assessing it.

Oh I get the ambiguity and controversy attention is the point. In his mind its "Dragon Energy" and same come up as Trump used to win 2020 to basically say everything against the "left controlled media" but in this case "Jewish controlled media". So he is 100% fishing for reaction specifically from jewish people or more specifically zionist so if he is killed, silenced or loses money he can say "see I told you so". He doesn't actually want to become preisdent so much as show that even Presidents are controlled by "handlers" or other people in power.

He is willing to die to communicate this message. Already feels like even if he is in his childrens lives they are controlled by things like tik tok, algorithms and "handlers". He wanted to live a life isolated from many of these things in Wyoming or Chicago. Truthfully LA wasn't the place for him to live this long or being on a "reality" tv show because it essentially bubbled out into him questioning all of the reality and the producers of reality.

Now he is on a warpath because he feels(I don't know if true some of what he says seems true about Hillary or people contacting his wife to get into politics). Once he saw government people influencing Kim to get into politics or for their agendas or investing him skims he became hyper paranoid that if she wasn't telling him that what else was she not telling him. The unfortunate thing being Kim ironically as someone on reality tv was his main gravity and touch with reality. Losing her. Losing the kids in a way. Losing virgil. Losing his mom.

All lead to to subsequent detachments from reality where the main people around him are there to make money, a feature, clout or just artist. Very few are able to have a fully human conversation with him where he doesn't believe they are owned or controlled.

In short I get what you are saying but this will in no way win him a presidency or even a primary
