Just a year after this happened and it seems like everybody has forgotten about it. Yea he lost his adidas partnership but nowadays, he's been a welcomed surprise guest at Travis shows, I'm hearing his songs being popped off on in clubs and parties, and he's been going viral on TikTok with tons of praise and no criticism or mention of him being a Nazi in the comments

Is it Americans having the memory of a goldfish? Americans not really hating Hitler/Nazis/anti-semitism that much? Kanye's music is just too good to ignore? Americans just loving to deepthroat and worship anybody that's famous?

How do you cancel a celebrity that gives no fucks, has a shitton of money, and built their public presence in an apolitical genre of pop hip-hop? Hope that your X-comment (formerly tweet) changes the mind of millions of people who don't really give a shit about anything outside the sphere of themselves? Sending mean X-comments (formerly tweets) to kanye's X account (formerly twitter) mailbox?

Unless you got a way to personally contact the dude and can d20 nat20 persuade him to knock that shit off, you might as well just shrug and say "that's the way it is" and move on to find something more productive to do with the time you got in this life. Maybe go take a nice walk, donate to some cause you like if you're able, put ketchup packets under those little bumper things under the toilet seat in your bosses personal toilet, spend an hour after eating a meal and read something you've been putting off, make a post on your favorite website wondering why some dipshit celeb with nazi fantasies is still openly bumbling around and have some loser reply to your post with an insufferable long comment that reads like they're the kind of person that gets a feeling of living high on the hog from making grandiose run-on sentences that never really seem to end.

A lot of his early stuff was very much political though, which makes his fan base being as apathetic as they are really strange
