      Nick Fuentes and Kanye became friends at some point. I wish I was kidding.

      As always with fascism, the blatant contradictions are a feature not a bug.

      Kayne West is a crazy Nazi, didn’t you know? It’s not like being black would make him immune to fascism.

      I reckon they’re just a bunch of turbo-charged trollers that only say stuff to get a rise out of people. Consistency isn’t important to them.

      Because Kanye is a Nazi.

      Not as in “wow, this guy’s politics are really right-wing, he sucks”, but as in “he openly identifies as a Nazi and says he loves Hitler”.
