'Swap out the black hood for white': Masked Kanye West slammed for saying he 'sees good things about Hitler'
Kanye West was seen in a video praising Adolf Hitler while wearing a black mask that covered his face and head. The interview was with Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, and it took place on Thursday, December 1. “I see good things about Hitler, also,” the rapper told Jones. Every human being has value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler.”
"I was thinking about Satan,” West said. "Whether it’s the Zionists or Hitler — it’s not the person. It’s Satan using the people, who are controlled by demonic forces.” Elaborating it, he said, "The Jewish media has made us feel like the Nazis and Hitler have never offered anything of value to the world. Meanwhile, there’s all of these things that are happening.”

West then said Planned Parenthood was engaged in “new world order population eugenics that is happening to this date.” He read antisemitic jokes that a comedian made about Ben Shapiro, who is a conservative commentator and podcast host. “Shapiro can tell just how much change is in your pocket from hearing a jingle,” West read from his phone.
West appeared alongside white nationalist commentator Nick Fuentes. He accused Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of “being mopped up with Israel and the Mossad.” “If I say something derogatory about the Mossad, is that mossa-gynistic?” West said, to which Jones replied, "I think most Jews are great people. But I agree there’s a Jewish mafia. I’m not on that whole Jew thing." West then said that “his accounts were frozen” and that he was threatened with prison time.
Jones said Planned Parenthood was an “abortion mill” that plays on “white guilt” in order to “help us kill black people” by soliciting donations from white people. What type of freakish crazy world is that?” Jones asked West, to which he responded, "Zionist.”

Besides being slammed for his comments, West is also being blasted for wearing a black hood during the interview. "Kanye West was on Infowars wearing a black hood and saying all kinds of very bizarre things. Even Jones was shocked. He needs to get treatment now!" one user wrote. Another said, "He just has to swap out the black hood for white.." "Why hide behind the black hood/mask? @kanyewest rants of Hitler, Jesus and personal prosecution. It can be said we’re watching him spiral out of control, be it mental illness or something else. Where is this stemming from? We must condemn his words," one user wrote.

"I really don't care about Kanye West's interview with Alex Jones, but people will probably talk about it for days. Is that why he wore a black hood on his face and praised Hitler? To generate talk?" one user said, while another wrote, "I mean why is he wearing a black hood over his head? and no there is no defending the mess that came out of his mouth." "I'm kind of surprised Kanye West didn't have a white hood on top..The guy is losing the plot worse every week or so. Rip his career," wrote one user.
