The art on the album cover is a painting called Landscape With Graves by Caspar David Friedrich, a famous German painter who was beloved by Nazis.

You've probably seen this painting before by the same guy. I've seen a lot of twitter Nazis using this painting.

The alternative album cover that he released was a Reichsadler, double-headed eagle crest.

Kanye held a concert on December 11 in Miami. He performed on stage in black-colored Klansman robe. There was at least a few right-wing grifters (Adin Ross, Sneako, etc) in the crowd.

He's announced that his new album is being released on this Friday. The pre-order is already on iTunes. I'm not sure if it actually will be release on Friday, he has a tendency to delay releases.

From what I have observed, Kanye is still being antisemitic. Baked Alaska posted a photo of them together on December 10. It is very likely that the album will be antisemitic and contain far-right messaging.

I'm worried that the album will be received positively by the hip hop community. If Kanye becomes popular again, it could normalize his cryptic love for Hitler.

god damnit learning that fuckin mountaineering painting guy is beloved by nazis

edit: although he died a century before the nazis were even around so it seems okay to like him

this would track with the current efforts in the West to rehabilitate the Nazis in culture.

[–] Tachanka@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The West is currently trying to claim that everyone except nazis are antisemitic. Truly the Goebbelsian Big Lie of our era.

[–] SeducingCamel@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

As a former Kanye fanatic I'm very confident he isn't dropping a damn thing on Friday

alright kanye bootlickers, come on out and defend this one

you know who you are

Kanye stans are up there with Rogan and Musk stans. They’ll claim to “separate the art from the artist” but are obsessed with his life and music and clothes. They don’t care about anything except themselves. The ones online are also extremely funny.

They believe that Kanye, a billionaire, is being targeted by “them” (the Jews, SJWs, the government, the Illuminati) because he “speaks the truth.” They essentially believe in his unmedicated paranoid delusions and believe he’s sacrificing himself for them lol. Essentially Trump but if he was a rapper

The wannabe Christians are especially funny. They’ll say some shit like “thank you Kanye for introducing me to the Lord, our Heavenly Father, and promoting peace and love on His kingdom on earth” as he’s rapping about having threesomes and complaining about record labels

Check the kanye sub top post is "were so fucking back" with this picture.

Also calling everybody who thought it was bad that kanye performed in a black kkk rode a stupid child because they apparently forgot about the song black skinhead. Ignoring the fact they apparently forgot he's dressed up in a black hoodie/mask and talk about how much he loves Hitler and how the jews are censoring him.

[–] Kuori@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

i actually meant the ones here but that sounds like an especially terrible time so nyet nooo thank you

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wish I had your forethought and judgement

[–] Kuori@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

i want you to know that this is the funniest thing anyone has ever said to me

but also i'm sorry you had to see all that

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You should go look at the sub GoodAssSub. The top posts are just seething about Anthony fandango because of a review that came out a decade ago lol

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Acronym is GAS hmmmmm

[–] Smeagolicious@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

Funny as hell we got Kanye stans here

[–] a_blanqui_slate@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

I'm just glad my racist refusal to take hip-hop seriously has kept any of ya'll from thinking I'm a racist for liking Kanye.

Lmao at this point he's like "No guys seriously, I am the world's biggest nazi, what do I have to do to show you that I am a huge racist actually?"

[–] sooper_dooper_roofer@hexbear.net 35 points 2 years ago (1 children)

nazi
black metal

the contradictions really always be like that

[–] Dalek@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And the anti-flambouyant views when they're wearing fucking make-up and leather.

[–] windowlicker@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

those motherfuckers will grow long hair, dress extremely gender neutral, and put on a full face of makeup and then go online to cry about "traditional western gender roles!!!". like come on.

He's awful but every time Varg comes up here it tickles me because it takes me back to high school where I was first regaled with tales of his misadventures by metalhead friends

Also, this might just be a Northern Europe thing but I feel like I regularly see people in Burzum t-shirts

[–] Azarova@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

my favorite varg story is when he earnestly posted on twitter that fascists should start posting pictures of the dicks ("but not in a gay way!!!") so they could see if people were circumsized or not

[–] Dalek@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Guy at work is from two Caribbean parents who settled in the 80s. Have seen him wearing the shirt. Very weird. Always wondered if he does for the shits and giggles of winding up the racists? I dont really know him so feel really selfconscious about asking.

Varg is hilarious because of the juxtaposition of him being a nazi and convicted murderer, while on the other hand he's a huge terminally-online dork who LARPS as a medieval peasant and creates shitty TTRPGs.

What in the fuck was that Kanye? I told you to do some shit for the kids

[–] Tachanka@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

stalin-bummed we were supposed to make them jump up and down and start sharing candy and stuff ussr-cry

[–] LeZero@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Imagine he starts doing a collab with Varg... agony-deep

At least that would pull that fucking nazi out of the ttrpg space

[–] voight@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Isn't he making like the most boring setting of all time?

[–] LeZero@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Maybe, I don't read nazi literature, but I wouldn't be surprised

[–] voight@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

exactly why I was trying to bait one of you fellows into giving me a Twitter roast thread or something

this former sub/site is really good about fun facts about the Pantheon of evil far right figures lol

I remember it's like really boring like there are elves who are surviving on a very cold dark world. it's like the setting of a heavy metal song but without the screaming to obfuscate the boring shit

Thank you! I am delighted it has a Crusader Kings-esque progeny possession system. Of course it does. lmfao

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

Gucci Mane sampled Varg on one of his songs lol. But based on the producer and Gucci, I doubt it was a dog whistle. But Kanye, lol.

Fucking Black Metal bands piss me off with their shitty logos. Having said that there are still some good anti-racist, pro-LGTBQ+ bands out there who're fighting to bring the music back from the idiots.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

Back from the idiots? It was founded by the idiots

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

They're trying to form a Fascist supergroup. Also if I want some screamy, dark rap, there's plenty of good stuff out there already.

[–] btbt@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You mean the Reddit thread or this one? Please let me know I don’t wanna be excommunicated from the bearsite for creating a bad post, I might have to resort to things like talking to my family and going outside for entertainment stalin-stressed
