The Jerusalem Post reports:
American rapper Kanye West threatened Jewish people about a supposed conflict with him over a Jewish agenda and said that he couldn’t be antisemitic because black people are Jews also, in a now-removed tweet on Sunday morning.
“I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 [sic] on Jewish people,” West began, likely incorrectly referring to a stage in the defense readiness condition of the United States military, or DEFCON. “You guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone [who] opposes your agenda.”
“Who do you think created cancel culture?” West posted in another tweet not long after the first remark. The tweet was removed by Twitter for violating the platform’s rules just over an hour after posting.
Read the full article. Yesterday Instagram restricted West’s account for a similar rant.

The disaster that is @kanyewest strikes again, this time invoking century old antisemitic tropes of Jewish money and control.

Oy gavult, I woke up at war with @ye. I was minding my own business picking out plastic fruit for my Sukkah, and now I am at Death Con 3? I need such aggravation? Kanye, question, is this a rap battle or a pogrom, as us Jews take these things very seriously. pic.twitter.com/DMOtqmt0TZ

This tweet by Kanye suggests he’s been absorbing Black Hebrew Israelite ideology about black people being the ‘real Jews’, usurped by those who call themselves Jews today (ie actual Jews). Also a dash of Louis Farrakhan’s ‘Jews oppress black people’ thrown in for good measure pic.twitter.com/BQA6UgIL35
