Kanye West Claims Rosa Parks Was A ‘Plant’ + Gets Suspended From Clubhouse Over Antisemitic Remarks
Kanye “Ye” West is at it again with the controversial remarks!
The rapper/fashion designer has been booted from Clubhouse as a result of his most recent rant on Sunday, Dec. 11, in which he said that Rosa Parks was a “plant” and that Jews “are used by the Chinese” to subjugate Black people.
Kanye West said,
“All of these heroes man– it’s only one. That’s Jesus Christ. You’re gonna find out something about MLK, something about JFK, something about Malcolm, Rosa Parks. We know Rosa Parks was a plant.”
He added,
“We know all of these things and they use these media outlets to outrage. Outrage is an economy, the trauma economy. What death are we gonna promote this week? It ain’t like 14 people are getting killed every week in Chicago. But no, we’re going to publicize this on our– I’m not gonna say whose platform it is. It was the Jews.”
The Clubhouse Q&A, which lasted just under an hour, was $20 for fans to enter.
Clubhouse announced Ye’s suspension from the platform the following day. They said:
“We took action to shut down a conversation yesterday because it violated our policies. We also suspended those who violated the policies. There’s absolutely no place for bullying, hate speech or abuse on our platform as explicitly stated in our Community Guidelines and Terms of Service.”
As recently reported, later in the conversation, Kanye West focused his attention on Meek Mill. The two have been exchanging insults online, and Sunday (Dec. 11) was no different.
Ye said,
“Oh, you know what, let’s go get celebrities. Let’s go get Puff Daddy, let’s get Dave Chappelle, let’s go get Meek Mill… What made somebody think Meek Mill could say something to me?! Yo, man, I’m about to start crying laughing. Somebody thought Meek Mill… Yo, I’m literally in tears.”
Meek Mill later responded via Twitter, saying,
“Never lost my mind for fame or money … I still have my family …my people respect me … I’m freeing people from prison…”
The Dreamchasers CEO indicated he was unbothered and enjoying time with his son at the moment. Meek Mill added,
“I’m doing community service all month with children up close and personal .. I’m chilling wit my son and his friends today.. y’all on clubhouse at 50 lol. I mean 50 on clubhouse drawing and not doing any positive wit ya following at that age is hittttt… you can be old or young on clubhouse it’s a place to connect!”
