Please help me, I'm old and lost at this point:

This guy is a PoC, am I right? How? What? When?

Hitler's personal driver was jewish. Hell even Hitler himself likely had Jewish ancestry. The only Jew he killed that was justified was probably himself.

The problem is ever thinking of people as informed rational beings. In general we are anything but.

No, was debunked. GröFaZ didn't have Jewish ancestors. It all goes back to some guy by the name Hans Frank.

Interesting and noted. But the overall point still stands. We are not rational beings. Kanye is looking for a group to belong to that meets his standards. Namely one filled with other sociopaths and narcissists. It will never be rational or healthy.

At this point I'm with you.

I just try to understand.

Nothing at all wrong with that. If people tried it more often the world would be a better place for sure.
