I don't necessarily think he's going to be president but this almost feels the same kind of cultural paradigm shift. I will say the whole "he'll never win!" counterargument feels particularly unconvincing after watching what happened with Trump. Especially when it is backed by nothing other than conventional wisdom and a lack of imagination.

Supposedly one of the things he said to Trump at that dinner was to offer him the VP slot :laughing:

I think Kanye will get bored of this whole campaigning for President thing in a few months and he'll move on to something else

Yeah he's a dip**** on a craziness bender but he's allowing others to come in behind him and do the Jewish Question by saying "Now I don't agree with everything Kanye said BUT he is asking important questions.

I've kept up with this pretty closely, but I don't think I remember Kanye asking a single question lol

You don't consider the Jewish Question important?

I think he's been entertaining the idea since 2016. I dunno how much follow through there is gonna be either but again I don't even think the prospect of him becoming president is even the most relevant concern.

What? No. The Jewish Question (aka the JQ) is an old antisemitic trope where anti-semites ask "What is to be done about the Jews". It's come to mean just being an antisemite bringing up Jewish conspiracy theories. My point is that Kanye being so publicly bold and abrasive about it gives less open anti-semites the opportunity to do the JQ by bringing up Kanye and distancing themselves from his explicit statements to look more tolerable by comparison but also decrying his being censored by (((the media))).
