Kanye West has become unstoppable when it comes to social media gimmickry! The lines have blurred for him in matters of racism and freedom of expression. For over a month now, the ‘Donda’ rapper has been in the limelight for all the wrong and disturbing reasons. During Paris Fashion Week, he introduced a new Yeezy collection which included a ‘White Lives Matter’ shirt. This attracted huge social media backlash from celebrities as well as netizens.
Now, he has offended another community with racially charged and hate-mongering posts. Ye, in his signature style, posted screenshots of his chats with Diddy. In the chats, he alleged that Jews are “influencing” Diddy. This post was flagged for antisemitism and Kanye’s account was restricted. Now, the fashion mogul has been dispelled from another social media platform.

Kanye West Is Now Kicked Off From Twitter
After getting restricted on Instagram, Twitter kicked off the ‘Monster’ rapper. Diddy Combs criticized Kanye over the controversial ‘WLM’ shirt. In response, he shared screenshots of their chat on Instagram. During the conversation, Diddy advised Kanye to stop playing these internet games. West replied, “This ain’t a game. Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me.”
After this conversation was posted on Instagram, the platform restricted his activity due to its antisemitism nature. The Grammy-winning rapper switched Twitter to continue to spew hate. On Twitter, he posted a couple of tweets that again attacked the Jews community.
In a tweet, he wrote, “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death [sic] con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”
In another tweet following this, he wrote, “Who you think created cancel culture?” He also criticized Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta for restricting him on Instagram. He tweeted, “How you gone kick me off instagram…. You used to be my n****” On the post, Elon Musk commented, “Welcome back to Twitter, my friend!” Twitter locked his account “due to violation of Twitter’s policies.” West used the word ‘death con’ where he meant ‘def con’, a military term for the denotation of a larger national security threat.

When The Rapper Was Suspended From Social Media Platforms In The Past
Kanye West has been infamous for getting his accounts suspended on various occasions. In 2020, Twitter suspended his account for “violating the Twitter rules.” West was having a rift with Universal Music for his music matter copies. He went on to share the cellphone number of Forbes’ Chief Content Officer Randall Lane. He tweeted along with the number, “If any of my fans want to call a white supremacist … this is the editor of Forbes.”
On another account, West was suspended for 24 hours on Instagram for extending racial slurs to Trevor Noah. In March 2022, Noah hosted a segment on ‘The Tonight Show’, where he dissected Kanye’s reaction to Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson. West went on a hate train to diss Pete, his ex-wife, and everyone related to the ex-couple. Through the situation, he highlighted how women are at the receiving end of hate after a turbulent relationship.
Kanye shared a screenshot of a Google search result describing the host as a ‘South African Comedian.’ He captioned, “All in together now” and repeated “K***baya my lord.” ‘Kumbaya’ is a racial slur used against Black people.
