Kanye West Reiterates That ‘Republican Party Freed the Slaves’ at Salt Lake City Sunday Service
- Thread starter Heromanz
- Start date
Just admit you like the tax breaks and stop being a prick. No one is forcing you to vote Dem, but you aren't free from criticism when you support a party of bigotry and classism
This being the same dude who called Bush a racist on live tv next to Mike Myers still bewilders me
haha that was the only thing I came away with too. Dude looks great for 42
Kanye West is an edgelord who doesn't read books. When you understand that about him everything he does makes sense. That quality occasionally makes him bombastically correct. But, most of the time, it makes him a dumbass.
"On Saturday, the 42-year-old rapper appeared in Salt Lake City for another installment of his Sunday Service."
It's like that Blade Runner quote but Kanye tried to burn past his own expiration date :(
Gone?

Damn. I can't even listen to his old stuff anymore.
The follow up when any rube says this shit should be: "...And?" That factoid has zero bearing on the political landscape of the modern day. Really really can't stand when people parrot that shit. Even if you want to pretend that nothing has changed about the Republican Party since antebellum, the reality still is that black peoples were owed that freedom. Black peoples aren't obligated to be perpetually "grateful" for being released from the status as pack animals. And black peoples are owed much much more for the trauma of slavery beyond just being freed. That freedom did not suddenly mean equality for black people as well and we're still waiting for that shit.
Same.

He said he regrets that now and it was because he had a "victim mentality" back then.
That was when I knew he was truly gone.
We need like a Kanye West does something dumb megathread and a Trump does something dumb megathread. Since both seem like the most common someone does something dumb.
Kanye is straight out of his mind. He must have had some born again stuff happen during rehab. Dude needs help.

This is like the biggest talking point with rightwing "thinkers" (charlatans) who can pretend they're smart by throwing this nugget out without any context.
The current Republican party would be the secessionists and against freeing any slaves. The party from 150 years ago is not the same.

I was going to post a thread about a thought I had, but I might as well fit it here:
I dislike the terminology of the slaves being "freed."
People were not actually owned: you can't own a human. They were held hostage and held captive, through physical, verbal, and psychological violence.
No one gave them their freedom. That terminology implies that slavers had some kind of authority to take away or grant freedom. No.
Slavers released their captives. They were engaging in morally criminal behavior, and eventually, they were forced to stop it. That's what happened.

He is a fucking idiot and anyone who gives him a single penny of their money is also a fucking idiot.
Some of the replies in here disgust me. Is this how we treat a king? What happened to our forgiveness?
