‘I like Hitler’: Kanye West doubles down on hate speech on Alex Jones’ Infowars show

As he continues his rapid descent into sheer craziness, Kanye West went on a new anti-Semitic rant during an appearance with Infowars host Alex Jones on Thursday.

If he has a mute button, it’s broken. And if you’ve been at all on the fence about West and the endless stream of crap that seems to come out of his mouth, it’s time to get off. If your kids own a pair of Yeezys, it’s time to throw them in the trash.

“Every human being has something of value that they’ve brought to the table — especially [Adolf] Hitler,” the controversial rapper said, doubling down on racist rants he made on social media last month. “Also Hitler was born Christian.”

“I see good things about Hitler, also,” West spewed when Jones tried to clarify he’s not a Nazi sympathizer. “I love everyone. Jewish people are not going to tell me you can love us, and you can love what we’re doing to you with the contracts, and you can love what we’re pushing with the pornography. But this guy that invented highways, invented the very microphone that I use as a musician, you can’t say out loud that this person ever did anything good, and I’m done with that. I’m done with the classifications.”

Wearing a black hood, West went on to blame the “Jewish media” for making it seem “like the Nazis and Hitler have never offered anything to the world.”

“I don’t like the word evil next to Nazis,” West said, continuing to torch what little is left of his career. “I love Jewish people, but I also love Nazis.”

Jones, who was ordered to pay over $1 billion to the families of Sandy Hook massacre victims earlier this month, burst into laughter and said, “I have to disagree with that,” before calling the conversation, “absolutely lit.”

When Jones said that West had a “Hitler fetish,” West replied: “I like Hitler.” Elsewhere in his appearance, West mocked Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu, questioned the Holocaust (“[Hitler] didn’t kill six million Jews. That’s just factually incorrect”), and praised Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Tagging along to watch the once talented music-maker ruin his career once and for all was his goofy new pal Nick Fuentes, a prominent white nationalist and Holocaust denier with whom he had dinner with at former U.S. President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort last week.

According to NBC reporter Ben Collins, who live-tweeted the interview, Jones did push back on West’s sentiments by saying, “I think most Jews are great people. But I agree there’s a Jewish mafia.”

Following the Infowars segment, Parler, which bills itself as a free-speech social media site, announced it was terminating a deal which would have seen West taking over the platform.

“Parlement Technologies has confirmed that the company has mutually agreed with Ye to terminate the intent of sale of Parler,” the company said in a statement to Variety.

Earlier this week, West, who now goes by the name Ye, stormed out of an interview with YouTuber Tim Pool after the commentator questioned him for saying the media is controlled by Jewish people.

West has been a non-stop fountain of controversy following an anti-Semitic rant he made on Twitter in which he railed he was about to go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.” The outburst caused brands like Adidas, Gap and Balenciaga to sever ties with the Grammy winner.

With his financial losses mounting, and claims that the IRS has frozen his bank accounts, West reached out to Trump to seek advice. But with Fuentes tagging along, the dinner descended into what only can be described as an absurd comedy.

In a video posted to Twitter titled “Mar-a-Lago debrief,” West claimed Trump became angry when the musician, who announced he will run to become America’s commander-in-chief in 2024, asked him to be his running mate.

“I think the thing Trump was most perturbed about [was] me asking him to be my vice president,” West said. But, he added, “I think that was like, lower on the list of things that caught him off guard.”

The Stronger hitmaker claimed that Trump, who has also announced his bid for re-election in 2024, chastised West’s political ambitions, telling the Yeezy designer he would lose if he were to run in 2024.

“Trump started basically screaming at me at the table telling me I was going to lose. I mean has that ever worked for anyone in history?” West continued. “I’m like whoa hold on, hold on, hold on. Trump, you’re talking to Ye.”

In his video, Kanye went on to add that he “loves Trump” and said the former leader was “impressed by Nick Fuentes,” a noted racist. “Nick Fuentes, unlike so many of the lawyers and so many people that he was left with on his 2020 campaign, he’s actually a loyalist,” West said.

“This is a f—ing nightmare,” one longtime Trump adviser told NBC News about the dinner with West and Fuentes. “If people are looking at [Florida Gov. Ron] DeSantis to run against Trump, here’s another reason why.”

Meanwhile, Trump was reportedly left fuming after the dinner, claiming that West “tried to f—” him over.

“So I help a seriously troubled man, who just happens to be Black, Ye (Kanye West), who has been decimated in his business and virtually everything else, and who has always been good to me, by allowing his request for a meeting at Mar-a-Lago, alone, so that I can give him very much needed ‘advice,'” Trump wrote in a message posted to his Truth Social account. “He shows up with 3 people, two of which I didn’t know, the other a political person who I haven’t seen in years. I told him don’t run for office, a total waste of time, can’t win. Fake News went CRAZY!”
