Kanye West is in the lead for the prestigious award of anti-Semite of the year for 2022. This ranks up there with a Nobel Prize or winning an Oscar. West leads the pack for the honor, according to the non-profit group StopAntisemitism.org.
Kanye West, the former Mr. Kim Kardashian, got into trouble a few months ago with some Tweets in which the rapper said that he was ready to go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE,” whatever that means. Referring to Jews, he said, “You guys have toyed with me and tried to blackball anyone [who] opposes your agenda.” And West also denied that he could be an anti-Semite saying that he “actually can’t be Anti-Semitic because black people are actually Jews.” As the people say on social media – WTF.

And just a few days ago Kanye West, also known as “Ye” went completely overboard, praising Hitler. On the Alex Jones show, West said, “Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler.”
“I love everyone,” said Kanye West, “and the Jewish people are not going to tell me ‘You can love us and you can love what we are doing to you with the contracts, and you can love what we are pushing with the pornography’ – but this guy that invented highways, invented the very microphone that I use as a musician, you can’t say out loud that this person never did anything good, and I am done with that.”
There are two others in the running for the award, including Palestinian-Jordanian luxury real estate developer Mohamed Hadid – father of model Bella Hadid. But Kanye West is surely the odds on favorite to win.
“Though these three men promote antisemitism from three different directions, they are equally dangerous,” said StopAntisemitism Executive Director Liora Rez. “Together, they have all been a catastrophe for the well-being Jewish people in the United States in 2022. There are no Jewish safe spaces. The current state of Jew hatred is running rampant with no end in sight.”
