The rapper formerly known as Kanye West directed viewers to his website, where the homepage was selling a T-shirt with a swastika on the front.

What’s insane is that FOX allowed this commercial to air in the first place. I’m sure someone at FOX will say “We had no idea he would put this on his site”, which we’ll all know is bullshit because they scrutinize the fuck out of every Super Bowl ad before it gets to air. There is a 0% chance that nobody knew about this beforehand.
Guys, just because he went on Alex Jones to make racist jokes and talk about how much he loves Hitler doesn’t mean he’s a nazi
Do we know when the website was changed? He could well have changed it the moment the advert went live.
I was on his website yesterday and there was no swastika then. There was “white lives matter” and a bunch of nazi-adjacent symbols with plausible deniability but no outright swastika.
What a strange chap.
Strange is an understatement
The commercial itself didn’t feature the shirt or any nazi imagery. It was a 30 second clip of Kanye in a dentists chair telling you to visit his website. It only aired in LA.
I don’t understand this timeline.
I saw it. I’m not in Louisiana or Los Angeles.
At least the next Superbowl halftime show is going to be interesting:
There is absolutely no excuse for this u/Remember_the_tooth. This is wildly inappropriate and completely out of date. There is absolutely NO excuse generative AI and MLL can’t remake this for a sequel using actual Kekius and Trumpf for the modern times.
That’s a really good point. Why rehash Mel Brooks’ old content when we have actual live NeoNazis on our front porch. Kudos to you for your insight. We could probably just livestream a rally.
I heard it didn’t air in all regions?
Uncle Rukus
No relation
At least he is isn’t hiding it
This is how low the bar is in 2025
What a timeline to live in…
How do I do this on YouTube Music ReVanced?
Sometimes when someone tells you who they are, you should just believe them.
Far be it from me to know of someone, anyone, even a celebrity, by using a reverse initialism or, worst, and I don’t say this lightly, an apheresis.
GOOD! Let assholes put a literal target on their chest. I’m fine with this. Fuck me, I should start selling Nazi merchandise so I can track them.
ADL easily calls out this symbol as one “adopted by Hitler as the primary emblem of the Nazis,” but can’t say the same about an extremely recognizable salute also adopted by Hitler as a primary symbol of the Nazis.
The ADL is a zionist organization that was literally founded to protect a pedophile and child rapist who was, with no relevance to those actions whatsoever, Jewish. Do not take any of their “stances” as being for social justice.
Do you have a source on Sigmund Livingston being a pedophile?
This dude is off the fucking rails, batshit insane.
It gets better. Shopify took down the store. This is what replaced it 😆
And what’s sad is that he’s wealthier than everyone that uses lemmy, combined.
Why the fuck does good shit always happen to bad people, and good people always get shit on?
At least you’re not a black Nazi, bud. Money doesn’t equal happiness. I bet he’s miserable.
Money does, however, buy security. Money would solve all of my worst problems and make the other ones easier to handle. We don’t need a lot, but sure as hell need more than we have now and people like him don’t deserve a damn fucking cent(besides any universal social programs because that’s what universal means and I ain’t gunna be that guy).
Money doesn’t buy happiness, but a lack of money is sure to bring unhappiness.
It can’t buy happiness but it can pay off my unhappiness debt.
Well he deserves a different level of miserable.
You don’t get wealthy if you’re good, because it takes a certain amount of greed and materialism
Probably not a popular opinion around here, but this is actually one of the rare cases where he is (was) extremely talented at his main thing (producing). That doesn’t mean he deserves that disproportionate amount of wealth, but he’s contributed more to culture than elon ever could.
This is basically undeniable, but what really makes me sad is the artists who don’t seem to be Nazis or even right wing but still support this dude and stand up for him because he’s been so influential on many of them.
If you see someone wearing that shirt, it is only right to deck them in the temple
Wow this is how old now, and I just noticed on the left starts clapping. An applause worthy punch for sure
This stick? I carry it for walking.
soup, soup for my family
Adding “Ye” to my list of blocked words
Ye of little faith
[censored] of little [censored]
Wow, no need to go all body shaming :(
Man that’s just mean. 🤣
They’ll never know.
I want to but I think the Thunder filter feature is a bit aggressive. I blocked the word “US” but I realized a long while later that it was also blocking all links to my instance sh.itjust.works. I’m afraid I’ll lose all titles with “yesterday” or “yes”.
I’m working on my own lemmy app. It would be cool to have settings for your filters like containers, starts with, ends with, word, part of word. But I also need to strike a balance between average users and power users. Maybe an advanced filter setting would be cool.
Neat! More options are always better. Do you have a community set up for progress updates?
I created a community but I haven’t launched a beta yet. I’m a bit of a perfectionist but I’m also thinking I need to have a certain baseline of features to not piss off users.
This is the web app, but I will be launching a native app in beta soon. https://blorpblorp.xyz
My main goals are creating a seamless experience between web and native, having a no compromise experience on larger screens while also not compromising on small screens, and allowing you to browse cached content offline.
Looks good! What’s the community?
Can’t you filter " Ye " or something like that?
No cause then you’d filter out everything with “Ye” in the name, and miss out on a lot of cool bands like The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Yello, Yes, Yella, and Yeti.
That depends on how the filter is implemented.
If it’s well implemented it should include the whitespace in the filter.

I would assume that the filters are case insensitive and filter whitespace but I don’t know for sure. I should test some stuff out.

He knows he’s black, right?
This must be proof that equality has been reached. Now he can be a rich bigot too! Welcome!
I think he forgot that a long time ago.
it’s a shame he died after the show aired.
He was that committed to the cause

He’s “one of the good ones” and rich so he’s all good.
That’s always worked out in the past.
And mentally ill
He’s not only convinced they would say he’s “One of the good ones,” but he actually likes the idea.
I’d like to see what the people at the local Nazis convention has to say about it.
He sounds dumber every time he tries to become relevant again. Does Kim have sile custody? Because I would go after it now.
Doesn’t matter to him. He still wants to be a bigot.

And suddenly Chappelle’s blind black man KKK member is truth.
Clayton Bigsby, and Yeezy isn’t blind, which makes it even better
Has Universal dropped him yet?
Well the website mentioned in the article is down.
