American rapper Kanye "Ye" West posted a series of antisemitic remarks on social media platform X (formerly Twitter ), calling himself "a Nazi" and describing Adolf Hitler as "fresh," on Friday. Newsweek reached out to the Anti-Defamation League, StopAntisemitism, and X's press teams for comment via email on Friday.

What a difference paying attention to Kanye West makes — or perhaps it makes no difference at all. The rapper now known as Ye cluttered up social media with a disgusting overnight rant that in part called for the release of jailed music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs and declared his "dominion" over wife Bianca Censori.
