Kanye West Logs Off X After Controversial Rant Filled with Racist and Misogynistic Remarks

In early February 2025, Kanye West, also known as Ye, engaged in a series of offensive posts on X (formerly Twitter), targeting various individuals and groups with racist, anti-Semitic, and misogynistic remarks. His comments included declarations of admiration for Adolf Hitler, self-identification as a Nazi, and derogatory statements about women and Jewish people. He also criticized artists like Taylor Swift and Kendrick Lamar. Following widespread condemnation, West’s account was deactivated, though it’s unclear whether this action was taken by him or the platform. Before departing, he expressed gratitude to X’s owner, Elon Musk, for allowing him to “vent.”
