Kanye West Becoming a Voice of Reason?

Yeezy is raising some eyebrows with his latest Tweets. Yesterday, he tweeted that he likes the way Candace Owens thinks.

I love the way Candace Owens thinks

Owens is a conservative African American who has been critical of the Black Lives Matters movement. She’s the communications director for Turning Point USA and has her own YouTube channel where she often criticizes liberal policies. She’s also a strong Trump supporter.

On Fox and Friends this morning, she thanked Kanye for his support, adding that “Kanye West does not really want to fold to controversy. If you look at things historically, Kanye West has really represented the battering ram against political correctness.”

Liberals were immediately upset by West’s tweet.

Apparently Kanye doesn’t care about Black people either.

This is why Jay and B don’t hand out with you anymore. Bro, stop stepping on the communities that made you. pic.twitter.com/F7P7l2qqRW

40Million Black people out here grinding for the other 8M who didnt make it. But a few excessively wealthy that could do things to help too busy taking & not giving back!

She is anti-Black &
anti-LGBTQI.

Kanye wore Confederate clothing. Knew it was more to that! #SelfHate

Then today, West began fighting back, tweeting in favor of differing opinions and railing against the thought police.

the blinders are off

we have freedom of speech but not freedom of thought

— ye (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

The thought police want to suppress freedom of thought

Constantly bringing up the past keeps you stuck there

We live in a time where people don’t respect people for being themselves

— ye (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

People respect people for following the general trend and consensus

— ye (@kanyewest) April 22, 2018

there was a time when slavery was the trend and apparently that time is still upon us. But now it's a mentality.

self victimization is a disease

Hate to say it but Kanye is making a lot of sense here. And it’s kind of refreshing to see a celebrity thinking oppositely of how people think he should.
