Kanye West continues to cause controversy with his statements. The rapper was briefly banned from social media following his anti-Semitic comments. However, after Elon Musk took over the microblogging platform, his account was restored. After returning to the platform, Ye announced a verbal fast. But he’s continued to break his alleged verbal fast ever since.
His earlier comments also cost him his partnership with big brands like Adidas, GAP and Balenciaga. But it seems he’s overcome that setback and this time landed himself in the bad books of Elon Musk.

Elon Musk suspends Kanye West for violating Twitter guidelines
The freedom of speech absolutist has now blocked the rapper’s account for inciting violence. On Thursday, KanyeWest shared a now-deleted Photoshop image of a swastika in the Star of David with the caption, “YE24 LOVE EVERYONE #LOVESPEECH.”
The post immediately caused outrage. Elon Musk apparently jumped into Yes’s chat box to warn him that he was taking it too far and that it wasn’t a love speech. Instead of heeding the warning, Ye challenged him in response. He also shared the screenshots on his Twitter, which have now been deleted.

Earlier on Thursday, the donda rapper would have appeared in an interview with Info Wars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. On the show, he openly praised Hitler. According to him, the Nazi leader had brought the most value to the table.
While Yes’ erratic behavior remains a concern, Elon continues to struggle with Twitter. After the acquisition, he brought some major changes to Twitter that didn’t sit well with too many people. However, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings has lent his support to the Tesla owner. To for him Musk is “the bravest, most creative person on the planet”. Hastings is “sympathetic” to the entrepreneur’s agenda.
