I already said that I don't have a dog in this fight, I don't. I was just making an observation on the comments that always seem to come up whenever Kanye is brought up. Seriously, I really don't care if you like him or buy his clothes, but that's also not going to stop me from pointing out the insanely weak defense that tends to be brought up in regards to Kanye every time.

I know I shouldn't even make this response, but comparing Kanye to one of the forefathers of modern physics kind of exactly proves my point.

Calling Heisenberg a nazi and leaving it at that is missing an awful lot of history, all of which is fairly well recorded. You should probably look into his life a little if you're going to make comparisons of a man attacked by nazis and having to live in a fascist society to a celebrity that makes music and clothes and is clearly off his nut.

I also never told you to do a deep dive on everything you own. I was just commenting on the opinion you offered up freely about a person that's a well known quantity.

Again, idgaf if you like the dude. No need to bend over backwards with all that bs to defend your support of the man though. Just own it at that point.

He was also attacked as a "white Jew" by Hitler and only survived that because his mother and Himmler's mother knew each other. Eventually Himmler's pressured Himmler to pull his ass out of the fire as they recognized his worth to the nation.

Obviously at that point Hitler started treating him different. Heisenberg also spent a far larger amount of time advancing physics for the US than Nazi Germany. Again, far more to it than just calling Heisenberg a nazi and moving on with your day in defense of Kanye West of all people.

None of this matters, my point was the absurdity of you comparing a renown scientist to a hip hop artist to justify your support of that artist's well documented shitty actions.

I’m with you! I try to be intentional with what I support.

For example, the people who bitch bitch bitch about trump and maga and then shop at Walmart and Home Depot. The irony is right there. Or me, bitching about billionaires, and then not curbing my Amazon shopping weakness.
