People Cancelled For Anti Semitic Comments

We all know everybody hates Kanye (Ye) West. There are so many reasons to.


And so all it takes is really that single tweet and he will be cancelled forever, the last straw.

And it happened. Ye being Ye, it was bound to.

This goes the same for others who have made similar anti-Semitic statements in the past.

1. Donald Trump
2. Gina Carano
3. PewDiePie
4. Mel Gibson
5. John Galliano
6. Miley Cyrus
To name a few. The backlash was swift and long term.

The Double Standard

The quandary is while we see that others who made similar Anti-Semitic statements weren't cancelled but merely given a slap on the wrist. Why is that?

1. Whoopi Goldberg
2. Ilhan Omar
And I'm sure many others.

Okay, we can find reasons to why this is so.

But our answers will always be colored by what color our politics are, what color our faith beliefs are, what color our traditions are, and the color of money.

And yes, it all depends if we own the banks, the media, the news, social media and if it fits our agenda or our motives.

Ye needed to be cancelled. Hardly no one is surprised. 


What is surprising is that when Spotify stood up to the pressure not to, but rather on their own corporate terms of use and the American right of freedom of speech, they are now being cancelled for not hopping on the bandwagon.
