Who could have foreseen this happening? Poor Wireless.

Kanye has easily legally qualified for involuntary commitment many times. You just need to be out of your mind & posing people danger. So if you don’t get committed when you’re uber wealthy there’s no way that’s a just system.
"People talk about “redemption” and “comebacks” for men who never faced real material consequences or, more importantly, actually stopped harming other people in the first place"

Well first of all, people can and will sue you if you’re too specific, so keep that in mind. Second of all, this is specifically about Kanye West

Antisemitism is deplorable. So is misogyny, homophobia, transphobia and Islamophobia yet they rarely get considered when it comes down to it. So many celebrities and politicians would be banned. - Kanye West: Pressure mounts over Wireless Festival appearance - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Kanye and his music used to stoke so much realness and creative inspiration. I can't believe he has single-handedly and systemically sabotaged his artistry, legacy, and his day one fans. College dropout changed so many things internally for people. It's so sad and frustrating.

Should Kanye West's Wireless concert appearance be cancelled? Of course: if he said about black people what he said about Jews, he would be banned from entering the UK. Words have consequences: see burnt-out ambulances in Golders Green & deaths at the Manchester synagogue.

O PepsiMAX Wireless Festival, a ser realizado em Londres no mês de junho, anunciou o Kanye West na programação. Por causa disso, a Pepsi e a Diageo anunciaram que não vão mais patrocinar o festival. Parabéns. Perderam o patrocinador master porque quiseram fazer show de fascista.

Seriously, don’t make Kanye a thing again. Please? And while you’re at it, stop supporting Chris Brown.

Very notably also, Kanye West could VERY easily be banned from entering the country, but Starmer prefers to ban peace protesters instead because they threaten the Zionazi death machine.

Chappell Roan should be allowed to be meaner to the general public if Kanye West is allowed to be a Nazi

This isn't a 'rap bad' opinion btw, if anything, it's a 'radio djs are annoying morons pretending they aren't in the advertising industry' opinion. It's also not a 'pop music bad' opinion! But lots of bad music stays around because of mass marketing. This is not controversial
