I think what I'm annoyed about is that fans will now see a different side and start retract statements they've been saying for the past few years.
This is probably a more concise version of Love everyone / 500 days in ucla
If you haven't watched it you should. Incredibly insightful and interesting. If it gets reworked it'll be in the echelon of observational documentaries. The beautiful thing about kanye west is that he's a walking paradox.
Givee mbdtf 2 otherwise f*** off
It's always fun seeing stans turn on ye
I saw that US officials categorize Middle Eastern people as WHITE, so I am not racist. It is more about their cultural/religious norms. But we will see how this will play out.
Most Hispanics are catagorized as White in America, so I guess you cant be racist against them
You have to be dumb to not realize that Arabs face so much discrimination because of their culture and homeland. So you are being racist against arabs.
The categorization of White is based on Self-Identification and in comparison to Black people, they are White.
A guy named Muhammad from Syria is going to be discriminated against because he is Arab and Muslim, White people after 9/11 didnt go âOh your white so I cant be racist to youâ They literally did so many hate crimes to Arabs that it was normalized.
You are assuming because its in the middle east that it has to be some fundamentalist society where women dont have autonomy.
Thats a bad stereotype of some Societies in the Middle East.
Tbf he was in talk with the Saudis about business so would have likely opened it there and while they decriminalized a lot of the laws against women, you still wouldn't be wanna caught wearing 'indecent' clothing there.

They likely wouldnt give Kanye property in a Holy Muslim Land that he isnt even native to. This is making the assumption that it has something to do w SA.
You are doing a lot of footwork to defend his ignorant comment.
He literally just said he cant be racist against arabs

I am pretty sure it's about Saudi Arabia cause they've been tryna do business with him since 2022

And he went to Saudi last year and even mentioned about going to Saudis in a leaked voicenote.
I don't condone whatever Pokerking said about them being white or whatever. I'm not fond of the regressive practices followed there too though.

I know he does business with them. He recorded some of Vultures there. I never said he didnt. Im saying weâre making the assumption its in SA, when its kinda hard to get LAND there. Saudi Arabia has been doing business with everyone to normalize their country.
I also dont like them!

Saudi is definitely a lot more restrictive than some other Arab countries but it's slowly changing
I don't think its an inaccurate comment to say she'd have to cover up, for example when WWE have their events in Saudi the female wrestlers have to wear outfits that that don't show skin apart from hands and face

I'd say he can get the land if he partners with some local firm or something and specially with the blessing of the royalty there
But
Ultimately I don't see this Droam s*** happening until he gets the fashion s*** back up properly anyways. So I guess it's a dumb argument till then

Wonder if new YZY shoes with that Anta Chinese company (worked with Kyrie) come out. They were allegedly in talk with him according to Milo before he got fired.
