Honestly what happened to him? Going on these hateful rants seem rather new. What triggered it?

Xaero_Hour t1_iub6zzp wrote

Not treating his bipolar disorder, unchecked ego tripping for decades, a messy public divorce, and charlatans taking advantage of him to parrot things he very clearly doesn't understand.

​

Edit: Wow. Some of y'all need to read more than 5 words before you jump down my throat over something I never said. At no point did I say bipolar disorder was the cause of his antisemitism. It just made his handling of stressors and life-changing traumas worse. And when you're in that state, that's when the conspiracy theorists get you.

Sir-Kevly t1_iudbd5x wrote

It's like the mental illness argument with school shooters. Yeah, they're obviously mentally ill. But they're not doing it BECAUSE they're mentally ill, they're doing it because they didn't get the help they needed and their mental illness causes them to continue getting worse until they snap and act out on those feelings.

Mental illness isn't the direct cause of any of his behaviour, but it's definitely exacerbating his paranoid delusions and self-aggrandizing behaviour.

Maybe he was already terribly anti-semitic earlier, but couldn't say it out because of the consequences. Maybe now that the political climate supports saying horrible things out loud, he is in his element. Perhaps being bipolar helps remove some filters.

Therealladyboneyard t1_iuc46bx wrote

I hate to say this, but I’m wondering if he’s going to blame his actions on his bipolar. Bipolar doesn’t make someone change their core belief system. If he’s not antisemitic, neither mania or depression cycle would change that. And the reverse is true as well. He either is suffering from another mental health issue, or he’s trying to use it as justification.

Xaero_Hour t1_iucdsvr wrote

Wouldn't be the first time he's tried to buy back public favor by saying exactly that. I'd say it won't work again, but I have far too little faith in the public for that. Also, he's got a lot of people with money that are using him as a flashy idiot so we don't start asking, "hey, where DID he get that whole idea from? Doesn't it sound a lot like that one guy on TV? Why is he still on TV saying the same stuff that cost this guy his shoe deal if it's so bad?"

RamenTheory t1_iuc02pv wrote

With all due respect, how does bipolar disorder factor into this? Being bipolar doesn't make somebody a hateful, vile, narcissistic person. Plenty of people live with mental illness and manage to not spew hate speech. Maybe he's just a shit person

Xaero_Hour t1_iuc3c5j wrote

How does an untreated mental illness factor into erratic behavior? Really? That's a pretty straight line right there. But it's not the sole source of his crap or even what caused his current spree of bad decisions; that's the other stuff I listed, none of which, you'll notice help.

19

RamenTheory t1_iuc3zky wrote

You're changing your statement a little bit. "Untreated mental illness" is much broader and more vague than pointing to BPD in particular, and likewise, "bad decisions" is also a pretty forgiving label to place on actively believing hateful things about a racial minority. What you specifically suggested was that BPD can contribute to someone holding racist beliefs, which, unless you have some kind of legitimate research on that, is a little bit of a stretch and potentially infantilizing to those who live with BPD. West is most certainly a mentally ill person divorced from reality, but suggesting that that's what BPD does to a person sounds... not true

That's pretty close to it. Conspiracy theorists strike at people when they're feeling frustrated, ignored, and confused and present them with something that answers all their questions about the lack of control they feel and promises them they can get it back. Then once they've convinced you that it all makes sense, BAM, here comes the antisemitism. The number of popular conspiracy theories that are based in antisemitism is frankly staggering.

I come from a country which has problems with adulation for toxic celebrities (India), but the USA takes it to a new level with rationalising the bullshit celebrities do. This guy released a good album almost 2 decades ago. He's released some decent music since then as well. But somehow he is regarded as some great thinker when he's always been a shallow, angry little moron. But you will have so called liberals celebrating him because he's apparently a black man who made it big. Only goes to show how shallow those people are.

Conservatives have now started liking Kanye and that's because they like anyone who spews vile hateful shit. But up until now, he was also covered very sympathetically by liberal media.

That's true but if you think of it like a susceptibility to crazy conspiracy theories rather than being an antisemite alone it makes a little more sense.

What makes you think many Democrats aren’t racist? You right wingers love to assume a lot of shit about democrats that is wrong and ignorant. There many racist fucks who happen to be democrats for other reasons. Did you even know there are democrats who are pro life conservatives? Senator Joe Manchin is an example. In fact before the civil rights democrats were considered the conservative southern party who supported racist dogma and Republicans were considered the “liberal” party.

The only difference here is that Republicans as a party support candidates who openly believe in white nationalism, christian theocracy and actively push policies that actively seek to disenfranchise and harm minorities.

As for Trump, there is a lot of DOCUMENTED evidence of the man’s racism that go back to the 70’s and 80’s. The real estate company he and his father owned back in the 70’s was found guilty of malicious racial discriminating against black people back in 1973. Add to that the many, many racist documented comments the man has made over the decades, including the ones made about the infamous “central park five” rape case in the mid 80’s.

The fact that so many right wingers assume so much based only on labels instead of their actions is downright ignorant.

Also, please leave Kanye alone. The man is not well. Making a huge news item about everything he says is pretty grotesque, sort of like videotaping a person with broken legs trying to walk and then making news articles about that. Stop pretending like this is a normal person with important opinions.

As someone with my own mental issues, I can tell you that the only person who can truly help Kanye is Kanye, and he has to understand that things aren't all right. As long as the media keeps stroking his ego to see what comes out of his mouth next, that's just not going to happen.

Did he say anything antiemetic or say that he could and get away with it?
