Spotify, SoundCloud and other platforms have pulled the song, but its spread underscores the challenges tech platforms face in removing content that violate their policies.
Spotify, SoundCloud and other tech platforms have worked to remove a new song from Ye that praises Adolf Hitler, but the song and its video have continued to proliferate online including across X, where it has racked up millions of views.
On various mainstream and alternative tech platforms this week, Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been able to share his latest song, titled “Heil Hitler,” along with its companion title, “WW3,” which similarly glorifies Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust.
While some platforms have taken steps to attempt to pull down the song, others have seemingly let it spread freely.
Who are you to say he isn’t deranged enough to sincerely believe it?
An intelligent, informed adult.
Who are you to defend an obvious lunatic provoking outrage for attention?
Clearly at least part of that is a lie. You’re the one trying to defend the fuckwad by pretending his gibbering is just for attention and not sincere, despicable hate. I’m the one rebuking you for it. You got it entirely fucking backwards.
Whatever you need to tell yourself.
Don’t be cringe.
