It is not hard at all if you don't want to do it
Nazis make Nazi salutes
I'm guessing it's pretty hard when you're a has been and are desperate for any publicity.

From the article:
In February, Friends actor David Schwimmer called on Musk to ban Kanye West from X after he made a series of antisemitic posts.
Schwimmer called on Musk, the owner of X, to remove West from the platform. “This is so 2022,” said Schwimmer. “We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr Musk.”
Bold of Schwimmer to assume Musk in any way disagrees with Ye's views.
Elon is not just holding the megaphone, he's actively cranking up the volume dial.
I find it strange that David Schwimmer made a public plea for decency when it was about anti-semitism but not for any of the rest of the hateful shit projectile-blasted around that echo chamber.
I don't understand how there can be black people in favor of Hitler. How do they rationalize praising someone who would have genocided them?
Mental illness isn't a skin color.
"I'm different, he wants to clean the dirty ones"
"why am I being loaded into a train I'M DIFFERENT"
"Excuse me, there seems to be a mistake..."

History lessons in the US focus on the Jewish victims of the Holocaust to the exclusion of all others. Plenty of people don't know that gay, trans, leftist, or non-white people were genocided.
Even white people. Slavs for instance. Anyone considered crippled. Political enemies.

My mom's uncle, white Norwegian, was put in a Nazi camp during WWII. History lesson.
They were the primary target and most Jews died in the Holocaust. That's being said I think people of color who are Nazis tend play mental gymnastics to ignore the racism. I think it is the younger crowd who wasn't hunted by hate groups.
The real thing to note is that Nazi Germany condemned large groups of people to die. When society is ok with singling out a group of people anything can happen.

Their where Jews that helped the Nazi’s early on. They seen themselves as the good Jews.

He got inspired by the Black Hebrew Israelites, a pseudo-religous group that believes african americans are decendents of jews.
If I recall correctly from his infowars Interview (or somewhere else around that time), he came to the conclusion that since he's a jew, he gets to decide if hitler was a good guy or not. It didn't make much sense and I don't recall why exactly he came to the conclusion that he as a good guy, but I think he said something like "There's only love, so he cant be a bad guy".
It's possible he thinks black americans are the real jews, that hitler was doing a good thing with killing imposters.

I'm really surprised he hasn't made an account on truth social, they love that shit over there.
I'm pretty sure X is fine with it too.
X is where the Elon Nazis are, truth social is where the Maga Nazis are.
Kanye is a Maga Nazi.
He wants to run for president though, lots of Maga nazis might have a problem with that.
