A British organisation dedicated to countering antisemitism have called for Elon Musk to remove Kanye West from X following his antisemitic rampage on the platform.
The rapper shared a series of tweets of an antisemitic, homophobic and fat phobic nature, including an admission that he ‘is a Nazi’ and declaring his love for Adolf Hitler.
"I LOVE HITLER. NOW WHAT B***ES," he wrote.
"LETS SEE IF YALL GIVE THAT MONEY BACK,” he continued in another post, before adding: “IM A NAZI.”
I gotta give Elon his flowers for allowing my fuckery It’s a whole new world I gotta say Elons a real nigga for this

“IM RACIST STEREO TYPES EXIST FOR A REASON AND THEY ALL BE TRUE,” he added.
“IM NEVER APOLOGIZING FOR MY JEWISH COMMENTS I CAN WHATEVER THE F*** I WANNA SAY FOREVER WHERES MY F***ING APOLOGY FOR FREEZING MY ACCOUNTS SUCK MY D*** HOWS THAT FOR AN APOLOGY,” the rapper wrote.
He also brought up Elon Musk, who appeared to give a Nazi salute at Donald Trump’s inauguration.
“ELON STOLE MY NAZI SWAG AT THE INAUGURATION YOOOO MY GUY GET YOUR OWN THIRD RALE.”
Kanye was widely condemned for similar anti-Semitic comments in 2022, and was subsequently dropped by Adidas and GAP.
Now, Campaign Against Antisemitism have issued a statement calling for the rapper to be permanently removed from X.
At this very moment, @kanyewest is going on yet another antisemitic rampage.

It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite. More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet.

"At this very moment, Kanye West is going on yet another antisemitic rampage," they wrote. "It couldn’t be any clearer that he is an unrepentant, proud antisemite.
"More people have viewed these posts than there are Jews on the planet. It is obvious that Ye has not learned his lesson the first time, when Adidas ended its partnership with him, following our call to do so at the time.
"Elon Musk, at a time of unprecedented antisemitism, there can be no mistaking this incitement for exactly what it is. We call on you to remove him from X."
West previously received an eight-month suspension from Twitter in October 2022, after a series of erratic tweets, which appeared to show a symbol combining a swastika and a Jewish star.
