You’re welcome...


Season 13, episode 5 "Fishsticks"
to be followed by Season 17, episode 10 "The Hobbit" also starring Kanye. They are fantastic, I made my coworkers watch them just this weekend. Even if you don't care for SouthPark, those two episodes are worth a watch.




"The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."
"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."

It's so fucked up. I give my honest opinion that the guy is an asshole and I don't listen to anything he says, no matter what he says, and I actually had a member asking me if I don't want this fucking halfwit to "reach" the black community, then deleted the stupid shit.

Ridiculous thread. Really.

If the black community starts taking its social and moral cues from Kanye West, then "It's so fucked up" doesn't even scratch the surface.

The real tragedy is how polarized this country has become.

I truly believe that there is something wrong with Kanye West. He has a very troubled mind. And maybe that is what you have to have to be a great artist but it is not the kind of mind that I want to take political advice from. His brain simply doesn't work like a normal persons.

I worked a tour with Kanye West on it. Para is absolutely right when he says that Kanye is one of the most conceited individuals ever to walk the earth and I have been around a lot of conceited individuals. I agree with what Kanye is saying on the video but I am not sure that he truly understands or believes in what he is saying. Sometimes I think he just says words without understanding any of them.

I often try to disengage from you in threads where we disagree for many reasons. I had thought that you deleting you prior rolleyes and me subsequently deleting the post where I said I had thought better of it had us at an understanding, of sorts.

If Any ghetto thug decides to listen to Kanye on this, and then subsequently Candace Owens, and then quite possibly Milo Yiannopolous after that and happen to have a free thought about it, I am willing to cheer that opportunity. Kanye West is a fucked-up individual. But. If the fucked up people who already listen to him happen to listen to him on the few things he's right about that could help, rather than further hurt race relations, I can't fault that. I don't find that stupid shit.

Kanye West is less than nothing to me but if he is willing to take the lib's heat by backing a solid black conservative like Candace Owens I'm not going to tell him to fuck off.

http://www.powerlineblog.com/a...ace-owens-moment.php

Owens uses a theme from the movie The Matrix to urge young people to “take the red pill” and become conservatives like her. She has even had the courage to take on the Black Lives Matter movement.

Yesterday morning, Kanye West tweeted his approval of Candace:

I love the way Candace Owens thinks

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 21, 2018

That caused the Left to go insane. Most of our readers (like me) probably know little about West, but he is highly influential among a broad segment of African-Americans and young people generally. His apostasy could not go unpunished. Reportedly, Adidas is contemplating canceling West’s shoe contract. But to his credit, West hasn’t backed down. These are among his many tweets of the last day and a half:

People demonize people and then they demonize anybody who sees anything positive in someone whose been demonized

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

The thought police want to suppress freedom of thought

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

Constantly bringing up the past keeps you stuck there

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

This is in line with Owens’ critique of Black Lives Matter.

there was a time when slavery was the trend and apparently that time is still upon us. But now it's a mentality.

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

self victimization is a disease

— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

It is hard to imagine the pressures that are being brought to bear on Kanye West, an immensely successful businessman. Openly parting company with Black Lives Matter and the racial left could cost him a great deal of money along with subjecting him to ceaseless calumny. Time will tell whether he can stand up to the bullying of the Left.

But I’m pretty sure Candace Owens isn’t going to crumble. This is some of what she has had to say lately:

Kanye West tweets 7 words and leftists rush to smear me as far-right & anti-LGBT. So what terrified them?
The truth did. The left is losing control of their blacks. Ready to be awakened? Watch the truth about my journey off the plantation w/ @RubinReport. https://t.co/YviWe4PQk0 pic.twitter.com/GcN35gBoIa

— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) April 21, 2018

Left-wing media have been attacking Owens furiously, while describing her as a “far right” figure:

Racist. White Supremacist. Homophobe. Alt-Right. Sexist. Misogynist. Crazy

Your words aren’t strong enough.

Buzzfeed. The Wrap. DailyMail. Mediaite. Complex. Twitter. Yahoo

Your whips aren’t long enough. #MindUnleashed

— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) April 22, 2018

Not quite sure how she qualifies as a “white supremacist,” but logic is not just optional on the Left, it is forbidden.

Far right? Allow me to clarify: I believe the black community can do it without hand-outs. I believe the Democrats have strapped us to our past to prevent us from our futures. And I won’t stop fighting until all black Americans see that.
I’m not far right—I’m free. pic.twitter.com/wtqCuYPtM2

The black community is well aware that Kanye is insane...I seriously doubt they take him seriously.

He's an asshat for sure, but he loves his signed MAGA hat:

And Candace Owens is now famous thanks to the "hat tip" by Kanye.

If 10% of black voting dems were to switch sides the rats are done. Kim K is backing Kayne on twitter and for some unknown to me reason, she is a trend setter. This forum is not the target group but I think we should support anyone advocating for President Trump.

I remember when he met up w/ Trump in the lobby of a hotel (pre election?). The media took a bunch of pictures while Trump said some positive words. Kanye just stood there w/ his mouth open. Didn't say a thing. Just stood there like he had never had his photo taken. It was like wax museum Kanye.

This is simple. He’s a troubled guy. If you hold him up as an example of anything, shame on you.

You know he’s going to melt down again eventually, or do a 180 and change everything he said. Him having anyone’s ear is not a good thing. I don’t care that today he says things I like. Tomorrow he’ll be saying some stupid and destructive stuff...’cause crazy.

Either way, if you hold a grenade up, don’t act surprised when it blows up in your face.
