Kanye West Threatens To Leave United States Due To Racism
Political Blindspot ^ | January 18, 2014 | Staff

Posted on 01/22/2014 10:04:25 AM PST by C19fan

When Kanye West arrived after being informed of this, he walked straight up to the teen and punched him in the face. Now, in the aftermath of the incident, he said he is seriously considering leaving the United States.

West said he is dreading explaining the incident to his daughter, whose name is “North”, because it will lead to seriously negative discussions about American culture, society and history. West said he would prefer to leave the U.S. than have to have regular conversations about racism with his daughter.

You probably know that Robert Kardashian, OJ Simpson friend and lawyer, was father to the low down, no talent Klan of Kardashians.

If racism is what it takes to rid us of this piece of self-propelled garbage, then let’s all become racists.

Here’s your hat. What’s your hurry? Come back sometime when you can’t stay so long.

Sources told Hollywood Life that after the physical confrontation, West “just held” his daughter, “held her tight and told her how much he loves her. He told me man to man ’you know I’m dreading the day I’ve got to break this sh*t down to North and tell my little girl how f**ked up the world is. I don’t ever want her to go through what her mother did today.’”

West said further, “we’ve got enough money to buy our own island or some sh*t. I’ll be damned if I raise my daughter around ignorance and flat-out blatant racism.”

*******

Kanye Quotes:

“I’ve reached a point in my life where my Truman Show boat has hit the painting. And I’ve got to a point that Michael Jackson did not break down. I have reached the glass ceiling. As a creative person, as a celebrity. When I say that, it means, I want to do product, I am a product person. Not just clothing, but water bottle design, architecture, everything, you know, that you could think about. And I’ve been at it for 10 years, and I look around, and I say, wait a second, there’s no one in this space that looks like me, and if they are, they’re quiet as fuck. So that means, wait a second, now we’re seriously, like, in a civil rights movement.”

“You guys don’t understand that I did the Yeezys and they eBayed for $90,000 and people wanted them bad as whatever, right. But I didn’t get a call from Nike the next day. You guys don’t understand that I met with companies and they say, ‘What we’re trying to figure out is how we can control you and control that.’ … No, I don’t think you’re really hearing what I’m saying. As a creative, for you to have done something to the level of the Yeezys and not be able to create more … so when I say, ‘Clean water was only served to the fairer skin,’ what I’m saying is, we’re making product with chitlins. T-shirts — that’s the most we can make. We can have our best perspective on T-shirts, but if it’s anything else, your Truman Show boat is hitting the wall.”


“We got this new thing called classism. It’s racism’s cousin. This is what we do to hold people back. This is what we do. And we got this other thing that’s also been working for a long time when you don’t have to be racist anymore. It’s called self-hate. It works on itself. It’s like real estate of racism. Where just like that, when someone comes up and says something like, ‘I am a god,’ everybody says, ‘Who does he think he is?’ I just told you who I thought I was! A god! I just told you. That’s who I think I am. Would it have been better if I had a song that said, ‘I am a n***a? Or if I had a song that said, ‘I am a gangster’? Or if I had a song that said, ‘I am a pimp’? All those colors and patinas fit better on a person like me, right? But to say you are a god, especially when you got shipped over to the country that you’re in, and your last name is a slave owner’s. How could you say that? How could you have that mentality?””

““I’ve dedicated the last 10 years of my life to this. I’ve spent 80% of my time working on this, and 20% working on music. Why do you think the song ‘N****s in Paris’ was called ‘N****s in Paris’? Because n****s was in Paris! That’s why we were in Paris. I put in the 10,000 hours. Because I had an office in a small courtyard across the street from Colette where I couldn’t even find a good pattern cutter. That’s why we were in Paris. I put in the 10,000 hours. I’ve got a very particular, specific take on men’s footwear. No one can say I cannot design, or understand how to design, a guy’s sneaker.”

““It’s funny; you drive in a Maybach past a homeless person and you ask, ‘Who’s more free?’ You could be trapped to your possessions. ‘You gotta do this next deal ‘cause you gotta do this with your house and you gotta get this car.’ And everybody [who] stay next to you last name is Jones, and you trying to keep up with all of them. And that’s what it’s like to be a celebrity.”

“Both this song [‘Black Skinhead’] and ‘I Am a God’ were made after Hedi Slimane didn’t let me into his first [Yves] Saint Laurent show. He wanted me to go but he just told me I couldn’t go to any other show other than that. I was like, wait a second. I can’t go? You’re not telling no editor they can’t go to any of these shows. I’m not your boy. Like you can control me in some way. Off of that, I went into the studio with the producers that made the music for his show (laughs) and made ‘I Am a God’ and ‘Black Skinhead’ … That was my reaction

Kanye West Threatens To Leave United States Due To Racism

Good. Let the racist bigoted hate speech thug leave the country. That one act alone should INCREASE race relations by about 5 percent.

People like him always say that. How come Alec Baldwin hadn’t left like he said he would? Some other Hollyweird actors stomp their heels and get all (fill in appropriate word) when things don’t go their way.

The racists prick would not stay gone long. He craves that mindless adoration from fans, which is heaped upon his ego by the media scum. I wonder, could we get this racist to take a few other black racists with him, and soon?

Yeah, I wonder if he’s thinking about France?

LEAST RACIALLY TOLERANT COUNTRIES
20 - 39.9%
France, Turkey, Bulgaria, Algeria, Morocco, Mali, Zambia, Thailand, Malaysia, The Philippines, Bangladesh, Hong Kong

MOST TOLERANT COUNTRIES
0 to 4.9%
United States, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Guatemala, Britain, Sweden, Norway, Latvia, Australia, New Zealand

If he picks the UK, he may not be able to spout all he spouts off about. It will be interesting to watch. Even more interesting if he buys an island—it won’t be too long before he doesn’t have all that money to swagger over.
