Remember When Kanye West Went on InfoWars to Discuss His Love of Hitler? That Was Weird
They have fun!
I am a professional masochist. I’ve cobbled together a career out of subjecting myself to the kind of rancid garbage saner souls would never even contemplate experiencing.
Yet up until the day I wrote this article I hadn’t watched Alex Jones’ three hour long interview with an artist I will never stop calling Kanye. Kanye wants to be known as Ye. I want him to stop gushing effusively about the monsters who tried to murder every Jew in the world. It looks like neither of us will get what we want.
Watching Alex Jones and Kanye have a one hundred and eighty minute long meeting of the diseased minds was previously too masochistic even for me.
Kanye did ostensibly just apologize to the Jewish people, however, for all of the Nazi and Hitler stuff—and in Hebrew no less—so now seemed like the perfect time to do a deep dive into a shit show of historic proportions.
Hey, it’s that guy from the Richard Linklater movie!
Kanye’s appearance on Infowars accomplishes the impossible. It almost makes you feel sorry for Alex Jones, an inhuman ghoul who has single-handedly made the lives of parents grieving their dead children harder and worse by claiming that their slaughtered offspring are just actors hired by the New World Order to promote their sinister agenda.
At any given point in this three hour travesty Jones is the most reasonable, moderate and compassionate person in the room. Kanye makes Jones seem sane and kind by comparison.
It’s easy to see why Jones made the eminently preventable mistake of inviting Kanye onto his show. Kanye is one of the most famous people in the world right now, as well as one of the most controversial, admired and reviled.
A Kanye appearance on Infowars promised a massive audience, incredible buzz and the inevitability that whatever Kanye said during the interview would transcend the world of entertainment and become real news.
But it went beyond that. Jones clearly saw Kanye as the leader of a group of Alt-Right Avengers composed of some of the shittiest human beings in the world, including Elon Musk, Nick Fuentes, Milo Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer, Candace Owens and Ali Alexander.
Kanye’s value to Jones and Conservatives is rooted in his wealth, fame, popularity and influence but also in his race. It would be an incredible coup to have a celebrity of Kanye’s stature firmly in the Republican camp. It’d be even bigger to have an African-American mega-celebrity singing the praises of Trump and his enablers.
Jones wanted to counter the conventional wisdom that Kanye is a lost soul whose outbursts are the product of untreated mental illness rather than the coherent political philosophy of a true Conservative intent on fighting the cultural plague of Wokeness and Cancel Culture with his hundreds of millions of dollars and army of fans.
Jones set out to prove that the mainstream media had it all wrong, again, and that Kanye was passionate and intense but not crazy. Kanye’s visit to Infowars instead illustrated that Kanye was even more unwell than anyone could have imagined.
Kanye’s visit to Infowars was the television equivalent of getting a “I Love Hitler” neck tattoo. I knew going in that Kanye praised Nazis and Hitler during his Infowars appearance. I did not realize that he praises Hitler and the Nazis repeatedly, to an almost comic extent, and also is a Holocaust denier.
Kanye is a bit of an eccentric. The mercurial rapper and producer showed up at the Infowars set wearing a black mask that covers his entire face. It is an unmistakable power move. For three interminable hours we can’t see Kanye’s face or his facial expressions but we can see every last look of profound discomfort and defeat on Jones’ big old tomato of a head.
Jones is, unfortunately, extremely expressive and the expression he sports throughout silently but unmistakably conveys, “I have NO idea how to respond to what you just said and my full-time job is talking to crazed fellow conspiracy theorists.”
It might seem like the Southern fried jackass never stops talking but throughout this nightmare he is at a loss for words. Words fail him just as assuredly as he fails his viewers, his country and humanity by offering up the most feeble possible defense to Kanye’s repeated assertions that the Nazis were awesome, Hitler was super cool, the Holocaust wasn’t such a big deal and maybe the wrong side won World War II. He also fails his dead grandfather who fought in World War II against the Nazis and not with them, as Kanye would obviously prefer.
The awkwardness kicks into high gear when he gives Kanye the easiest of outs when he tells him, “You’re not Hitler. You’re not a Nazi. You don’t deserve to be called that and demonized.”
Kanye isn’t quite so sure that he is, not, in fact, a Nazi. He responds to Jones’ assertion that he’s not a follower of the most hated movement in human history, led by the most hated leader with a testy, "I see good things about Hitler, also. I love everyone and Jewish people are not going to tell me ‘You can love us, and you can love what we’re doing to you with the contracts and with pushing pornography but this guy, that invented highways, that invented the very microphone that I use as a musician, you can’t say out loud that this person ever did anything good and I’m done with that!”
Creep, creepier, creepiest
If you were to take a shot every time Kanye railed against “Zionists" or Jewish control of the media, Hollywood, banking and fashion you’d die of alcohol poisoning in the first hour.
In his disastrous sit-down with Jones, Kanye said the quiet part loud. He’d have emerged from the interview unscathed if he only used the same coded words as Jones.
The blowback would be minimal to non-existent if Kanye railed against “globalists” and “bankers” and George Soros. Everyone would know that he was actually talking about Jews but he would have plausible deniability. If he’d been more calculating and political Jones would heartily agree with Kanye instead of looking like he wants to disappear.
Kanye is too arrogant to play that game, however. He doesn’t talk about globalists or bankers: he talks about Zionists and Jews and how they’re destroying the world with their greed and their lust and their hatred of Jesus, who, incidentally, was Jewish.
Kanye repeatedly directs comments to powerful agent Ari Emmanuel and his brother Rahm, a former mayor of Chicago, as if the brothers are watching live and are are worried that they’ll become unemployable pariahs if a mentally ill Hitler super-fan talks about them in unkind ways.
In an abysmal bit of verbal and physical comedy Kanye repeatedly brings out an orange net and bottle of Yahoo that he calls “Netanhyahu” (Net and Yahoo, get it?) after the former prime minster of Israel leader who criticized Donald Trump for having dinner with him and Fuentes. When he trots out this tired gag he gives the former Israeli Prime Minister a high-pitched cartoon girly voice he finds hilarious. In his most inspired joke Kanye asks if he’d be considered “Mossadgynistic” if he said something provocative about the Israeli secret service.
I’ve got to concede that that was almost funny. Almost. What I like most about that particular gag is that it is rooted in silly wordplay rather than genocidal hatred of Jews.
Kanye is way too amused by his antics. He truly is the Carrot Top of virulent anti-Semitism. Elsewhere he takes out his phone (he does that a lot in the interview, mostly so that he can quote scripture) so that he can rattle off anti-Semitic jokes about Ben Shapiro by towering unfunnyman Owen Benjamin.
He’s so enamored of a one-liner about Shapiro being angry at basketball player Kyrie Irving not because of his anti-Semitic actions but rather because “he wouldn’t sign his basketball” that he says it twice, to stony silence from Jones. Another Owen Benjamin one-liner Kanye shares is "Shapiro can tell how much change is in your pocket just from making it jingle.”
He’s got jokes!
Kanye professes to be a “Baby Christian” who is full of passion but hopelessly inexperienced as well as someone without a sophisticated grasp on politics.
The controversial musician and fashion mogul then spends three hours lecturing the Infowars audience on religion and politics from a place of deep ignorance.
Time and time again Jones will ask his guest a not particularly difficult question and Kanye will defer to Fuentes, a White Supremacist with an eminently punchable face who apparently fancies himself something of a Talmudic scholar. In Fuentes’ mind at least the Talmud is a work of Satanic evil.
Kanye thinks of himself as a big picture kind of guy. He leaves the details to his sniveling sidekick. So he’ll assert that Jews are evil and then have Fuentes explain how and why they’re evil.
Jones justifies letting Kanye rant incoherently about how Jews run everything on the grounds that allowing a lunatic to espouse bigotry represents free speech at its purest, and only a censorship-mad Socialist would be unAmerican enough to not want to do business with someone who effusively praises the architects of the Holocaust, and, for good measure, also says that the Holocaust was mostly made up.
At one point Alex Jones put on a lizard person mask? It was weird. This piece literally could be twice as long.
Before his appearance on Infowars, Kanye stormed out of an interview with professional creep Tim Pool after he had the audacity to question some of Kanye’s ragingly anti-Semitic beliefs.
Jones did not want his exceedingly famous guest to flee before he could spend three excruciating hours being humiliated and controlled by him for the money and attention it would inevitably bring. So he cowardly kisses Kanye’s ass, sits silently while he rails against Jews and Zionists, and softly insists that he doesn’t like Nazis and thinks that Hitler was not, in fact, a great guy, in a way seemingly designed not to offend Kanye.
This episode of Infowars was like an old-fashioned variety show. Only instead of a campy combination of music, comedy and spectacle it features a toxic variety of parasites and self-promoters.
These include Laura Loomer. In a stunning display of self-hatred the Jewish Zionist defends Kanye’s Hitler love on the basis that it’s free speech and free speech absolutism means that you must listen someone express a man-crush on the dictator who tried to wipe out your entire religion and the only appropriate response is sternly asserting that no one should tell anyone what to think or say.
#SquadGoals
Actually, I feel very confident saying hey Kanye, quit it with the adolescent worship of the Fourth Reich. It’s making you seem both evil and insane, which is not a good combination.
Also, Kanye spends a lot of his time on the show proselytizing on Jesus’ behalf. If you want to win people over to Christianity extensively praising Hitler is a terrible way to go about it. I can’t think of many worse ways to create new Christians than by telling the world, “Hey, you know that genocidal madman whose name is literally synonymous with evil, who is the gold standard of horrible people who single-handedly make the world a worse place? I think he’s great and I’m not about to let the Jew-run media tell me otherwise.”
Laura Loomer is Sweden when it comes to Kanye lavishing a big bouquet of roses on Adolf Hitler’s grave: neutral, baby! She’s not one of those busybodies who thinks that people should suffer professional or economic consequences just because they publicly express views that much of the public find repugnant and abhorrent.
Besides, Laura Loomer was canceled. She could not be happier or prouder to be canceled. In fact, she seems to harbor pity for people who haven’t known the exquisite pleasure of being canceled.
You know who else was canceled by Woke Mind Virus Cancel Culture? Everybody on the show, including Alex Jones and Kanye. They damn near have a wrestling match to determine who is the most canceled.
Kanye thinks that it’s unfair that a pretty cool dude with a lot of swagger, an awesome mustache and a dope sense of style (were those brownshirts “lit” or what?) was canceled by the Allied Forces just because he tried to take over the world and kill all the Jews.
Honestly, people can get cancelled over anything. Even something minor like that. The guests all agree as well that lavishing accolades on The Fuhrer is nothing compared to all of the wicked shit that Liberals do, like killing babies, raping babies, promoting child pornography through Instagram, forcing children to be trans and, worst of all, getting Alex Jones and Kanye temporarily removed from Twitter.
In one of many unfortunately news-worthy parts of the show Kanye discusses his infamous dinner with Donald Trump and Nick Fuentes, which he describes as very friendly and congenial until the disgraced, twice-impeached ex-president learned that people would find out about it.
Trump’s demeanor and attitude changed dramatically after that. He began insulting Kim Kardashian (which probably offended Kanye, as he sees that as his job/sacred obligation) and responded VERY badly to Kanye offering him a spot on his presidential ticket.
If this were anyone other than Kanye, that would obviously be a self-deprecating joke. After all, Donald Trump was somehow elected president in 2016, possibly as a result of a Satanic bargain, while Kanye got just over 60,000 votes in 2020.
Trump did not take it as a joke, however. He apparently flew into a rage and told Kanye not to run for president because he couldn’t possibly win.
It pains me to admit this, but in this instance Donald Trump was right. Kanye loves Trump the way he loves Jesus and Hitler and Himself but also thinks that he’s controlled by the Jews, just like Kim Kardashian and Dave Chappelle. Since Kanye thinks that Satan controls Jews that means that Kardashian and Chappelle are controlled by Satan and doing the devil’s evil bidding by being sexier than Kanye feels is appropriate and making a joke at Kanye’s expense once.
When Kanye sings a little ditty about the Clintons murdering him it doesn’t seem particularly tongue-in-cheek considering the rest of what comes flying out of his mouth.
Kanye is one of the most successful musicians of all time but he clearly knows nothing about religion or politics. He’s a millionaire in his forties who sees Nick Fuentes, a worthless little Nazi shit in his twenties, as a guru with the answer to all of life’s questions. He just needs to sit reverently at Fuentes’ feet while he explains that the Talmud says pedophilia is great as long as you’re molesting the children of non-Jews.
Someone is putting bad misinformation inside Kanye’s frazzled and suggestible brain. That person is Nick Fuentes. And Kanye himself.
In a trademark fit of delusion, Kanye insists, “I represent the common man.” If Kanye does, in fact, represent the common man then we’re all screwed.
Jones makes crazy concessions like, “I’m not denying that Jews run Hollywood.” When Kanye says that Hitler didn’t kill six million Jews and “the Holocaust is not what happened and Hitler had a lot of redeeming qualities” the best Jones can muster is a weak, half-hearted, “I think Hitler did target and kill some people.”
Kanye repeatedly professes to love everybody, including Mao, Zionists, Jews and Jeffrey Dahmer (I am once again not kidding; he literally says that he loves Jeffrey Dahmer during the interview). I should not have to point this out but it is impossible to love everyone. If you love Jews then you hate Hitler. If you love the vulnerable young men Jeffrey Dahmer killed then by definition you cannot and should not love the man who sexually assaulted, murdered and sometimes ate his victims.
The overwhelmed host, who keeps talking about how he must be in The Twilight Zone because everything is so crazy, returns repeatedly to the subject of his grandfather’s service in World War II as a way of gently indicating to Kanye that maybe he should go easy on the pro-Nazi talk.
At the very end Jones references his grandfather stumbling upon piles of dead bodies killed by the Nazis. It makes no impression on Kanye, who ends his appearance with a flurry of empty provocation and mindless transgression.
Kanye hates Jews but he also hates women. He goes on a long diatribe about how every woman involved in the sex industry was molested as a child, and is acting out that trauma through their work.
Since Kanye is convinced every sex worker was sexually assaulted as a child he sees supporting any kind of sex work—including hitting up the strip club at a bachelor party—as only a single, small step away from pedophilia.
Me and my friend noticed your energy from across the bar and would like to buy you a drink.
Kanye explicitly talks about Kim Kardashian being controlled by the Jews but he also implicitly condemns her for being professionally sexy and becoming famous due to a sex tape.
Towards the end of this disaster Jones tells Kanye that he’s like a superhero, which is why he’s wearing a black mask over his face. You know, just like Superman.
The reality is that Kanye isn’t a superhero. He’s a villain and not even a particularly good one, let alone one that would qualify as super.
Kanye is lost forever. The truth is that we probably never really knew him at all.
Considering what we’ve learned about him over the past few years, that’s probably for the best.
