We do not think of Kanye in terms of needing a conservatorship b/c we do not see the same level of paternalistic oversight + control over men, as we do w/ women. A 🧵....
 
This is not my speaking as a feminist. I am speaking as a law prof who

/1
researches & speaks about #conservatorships, and more recently, #FreeBritney.

Gender inequality touches women in ways that are often unconsidered and perhaps unintended. Would a wealthy male celebrity in the United States be subject to a 13-year conservatorship?

/2
The answer is “highly unlikely.” We do not see Charlie Sheen or Kanye West being stripped of legal capacity. And when the Nat'l Center for State Courts considered dozens of cases of conservatorship fraud, most cases involved women.

Here so go again… #KanyeWest appeared on #GavinMcinnes. A lot of it is trying to find out how they’ll handle the “Jew problem.”

They talk about porn a lot, which is the fault of “the Jews.” I mentioned it before, but Kanye was my client & I’ve seen his hundreds of porn DVDs. 😂
This is actually a lot more informative. #NickFuentes presents a rationalized antisemitic ideology which he believes is logical & isn’t per se discriminatory.

#Kanye, conversely, just hates Jews & he thinks that’s the point of this ideology. Find reasons to hate us.

Watch…
Now #NickFuentes repeatedly concedes that “cultural” or “liberal” Jews whom aren’t religious, are the problem.

Conversely, Kanye will concede that his success is largely BECAUSE of those Jews, yet his downfall is them punishing him for wrong think.

#KanyeWest, der sich inzwischen “Ye” nennt, ist innerhalb weniger Jahre von einem gefeierten Musiker zu einem antisemitischen Verschwörungsideologen geworden. Doch wie kam es dazu? Eine Einordnung unseres Montoringteams de:hate im Thread. 🧵 1/18
Seit 2016 unterstützt er Donald Trump. Er behauptete, dass die Sklaverei eine “Entscheidung” von Afroamerikaner*innen gewesen sei. Auch sprach Ye sich für die Abschaffung des 13. Zusatzparagraphen der Verfassung aus, der die Sklaverei beendete. 2/18
West reproduziert die rassistische Erzählung, der von einem Polizisten ermordete Afroamerikaner #GeorgeFloyd sei an einer Überdosis Fentanyl gestorben. Auch behauptet er, dass Abtreibung die “Hauptursache” für den Tod Schwarzer Amerikaner*innen sei. 3/18

From the US Holocaust Museum's website: "Individuals of African descent living in Germany were socially and economically ostracized. They could not attend university, they lost their jobs, they sometimes lost their citizenship. Mixed-race marriages were forbidden, and
Doctors illegally and secretly sterilized between 385 and 500 biracial children... Black people were also imprisoned or sent To internment or concentration camps. There, they were often treated more harshly and subjected to medical experiments or extreme brutality.
The SS and Gestapo commonly mistreated Black prisoners of war, working them to death in concentration camps or killing them immediately rather than imprisoning them."

🧵 Last week, our organization @The_ILF, wrote to @adidas leadership in Germany, calling on them to end their silence and terminate their contract with #KanyeWest, over his relentless #antisemitic tirades.

Enclosing contents of letter in thread below:

@The_ILF @adidas We write this letter to you on behalf of The International Legal Forum (ILF), a global network of over 4,000 lawyers and activists, committed to combating antisemitism in the international legal arena.

In 2016, Adidas introduced clauses into your contracts, preventing discrimination against LGBT athletes.

In 2020, you joined BLM campaign, noting “We understand that the fight against racism is one that must be fought continually and actively. We must and will do better.”

Hallo @adidasGER @adidas,
Ich bin deutscher Jude (oder Deutscher jüdischer Herkunft, wie ihr wollt). Meine Vorfahren wurden von deutschen Nazis verfolgt. Ich weiß ihr wurdet jetzt in den letzten Tagen mehrfach auf dieser Plattform auf eure eigene „spezielle“ Firmengeschichte /1
hingewiesen. Angesichts dessen das dies mMn bis jetzt zu wenig aus Deutschland geschehen ist und ihr eure Zusammenarbeit mit #KanyeWest @kanyewest noch nicht beendet habt auch auf deutsch eine Erinnerung an euch: /2
Ihr glaubt zwar ihr habt heute nix mehr mit dem ganzen Scheiß zu tun aber die Infrastruktur und der Reichtum eurer Firma von der ihr heute noch profitiert wurden ganz konkret mit dem Blut von Jüdinnen*Juden erbaut. Die Gründer Brüder der Firma #Adidas Adolf und Rudolf Dassler /3

WOW hopefully Kanye West asks them if they are going to sue everyone that attended the 2021 White Lives Matter Rallies in Raleigh, North Carolina; Huntington Beach, California; Philadelphia; New York City; Albuquerque, New Mexico; Fort Worth, Texas; Centerville, Texas
I seen a video the other day that said
Kanye children's mother is white. What are you going to tell your interatrial children? That dad's life matters more than moms?
There is not Trademark Paten on the White Lives Matter slogan so legally he is within his rights to use the slogan uspto.gov/trademarks/bas…

🔴🧵The "Kanye West on Jews" saga continues today with remarks about a Jewish agenda and how he will be taking Jewish people to task soon.

Here's what you need to know to get caught up >>>
#Antisemitism | #KanyeWest
Kanye West threatened Jewish people about a supposed conflict with him over a Jewish agenda and said that he couldn't be antisemitic because black people are Jews also, in a now-removed tweet.

These remarks come after Kanye West's Instagram account was restricted over alleged antisemitism expressed in a conversation with Diddy that he leaked onto the social media platform.

"As an African-American woman, Lythcott-Haims wrote, she was taken aback that he would say this to her "with no facial affect." She went on to say that Thiel made "no effort to even acknowledge the pain the concept of apartheid could possibly raise for me, a Black women."
“One day I heard a rumor that Peter defended apartheid (which was then still the law of the land in South Africa), which I found morally repugnant.”

This afternoon, I spoke with a veteran legal expert ON THE LABEL SIDE who has anonymously shared their thoughts with me on the #KanyeWest recording contract(s) with UMG and his decision to share those contract(s) with the world on Twitter. More analysis tomorrow, but for now...
Record labels have been moving more toward “distribution” style deals with established stars where the label royalty rate is low in the US because they can earn good revenues from deductions and ex-US sales. Outside the US the artist royalty rate is lower.
In the case of Kanye, before he gets paid, UMG has allowed itself to deduct its marketing costs — which may be internal, and therefore margin-bearing — and unrecouped amounts from Kanye’s PRIOR contract(s).

.@goodyear told workers not to wear clothing / hats for political candidates while on the job: not for Trump, Biden, OR the Birthday Party candidate Kanye Kushner. Trump's so thin-skinned, he'll threaten 1,000s of US jobs in revenge.
In related news, #JaredKushner says it's a total coincidence that a Trump campaign attorney is helping Birthday Party candidate #KanyeWest get on the ballot to take votes away from #Biden.
#JaredKushner talks to #KanyeWest every day about how people who can trace their ancestry back to "shithole countries" will never "catch on" that Kanye has "no chance" of being "elected." forbes.com/sites/randalll…

1.¿Podría #KanyeWest ser uno de los candidatos para las elecciones presidenciales de EEUU?¿Cuál de los dos candidatos oficiales se vería más afectado?¿Elon Musk podría ser su vicepresidente?¿Se trata todo de una propaganda para publicitar su nuevo disco?🤔
Abro hilo 🧵🎵👟🗳️🇺🇸👇
2. Aprovechado la fiesta nacional de los Estados Unidos el rapero, productor, diseñador de moda y marido de @KimKardashian, @kanyewest, anunció su candidatura a las elecciones de presidenciales vía Twitter.
Sí, a esas elecciones que son a menos de 4 meses
3. Aparte de en las redes sociales, el nombre de Kanye West no aparece registrado en el Comité Federal de Elecciones.

🇺🇸 ❗️HILO DE EMERGENCIA❗️🇺🇸

La candidatura del rapero #KanyeWest en las elecciones del próximo noviembre pone el panorama electoral patas arriba

¡Te explicamos las implicaciones y sus posibilidades reales de victoria!

👉Dentro hilo👈 Image
Ya se han celebrado las "elecciones internas" de los dos grandes partidos: el demócrata presentará a Joe Biden y el republicano a #Trump.

Fuera de los 2 grandes partidos ningún 3er candidato ha logrado éxito reseñable alguno desde 1912. La jugada de #KanyeWest es arriesgada. Image
No obstante el candidato tiene algunas bazas a su favor:

💵 Una fortuna personal que le permitirá sufragar su propia campaña electoral.
🎤 El apoyo de buena parte del mundo del arte y la cultura.
📺 Una potentísima imagen televisiva gracias también a su esposa Kim #kardashian. Image

For those of you who still haven’t gotten around to it - you should listen to Kanye West’s new album. Not simply for listening pleasure or to find a new song to jam to in the car, but to witness the transformation. This is the kind of change that validates the gospel of Jesus.
Ye built his career on rapping about the objectification of women, violence, extreme narcissism, etc. He went from proclaiming that he’s a god and an album title to back it up (Yeezus) to proclaiming about him being a servant of God and an album title to back it up (Jesus is
King). From the looks of it, Kanye’s life has changed - a complete 180. That’s the heart change that the gospel brings. How does that change come about? One realizes that they’re disconnected from God - a sinner (Romans 3:23). Our offenses against God (sin) have consequences just

“...people usually gain power through traits and actions that advance interests of others such as #empathy, #collaboration, openness, #fairness...when they start to feel powerful or enjoy position of privilege, those qualities begin to fade....(1)
...The powerful are more likely than other people to engage in rude, selfish and unethical behaviour” #RebeccaSolnit citing #DacherKeltner on his work studying relationship between empathy and power
“If power generates a cushion of obliviousness around it, those of us with power need to counter it. That means, first, treating people with respect, regardless of their status: not taking the invitation to disdain or ignore” #Solnit

#JesusIsKing by #KanyeWest initial thoughts: 1. Every Hour - gospel choir bops, 2. Selah - words of truth, favorite lyric "the strong start on Sunday", Matthew 6:33-34 seek God first, 3. Follow God - do it! heavenly Father > earthly father,
4. Closed on Sunday - more than just an ode to Chick Fil A & lemonade, this is how he wants to live every day, 5. On God - insight into old Kanye, Jeremiah 29:11, Ye didn't die because God has plans for him, and all things work for good Romans 8:28,
6. Everything We Need - my favorite track, favorite lyric "Baby let's put this back on the tree cause we have everything we need." A godly man leads his fam, and it's about contentment, 7. Water - a prayerful cry out to God, favorite lyrics "clean the music", He did. Matt. 12:34,

1) Columbus Day 2018 is half time at the 2018 Mid-Term Bowl. The score is GOP 17 and Democrats 16. Let’s recap the first half.

2) Going into the game the Democrats were riding their #BlueWave of enthusiasm. They were so confident America was tired of all the lies and sordid behavior of Coach Trump that the Democrats could win the game easily.
3) They laughed at their good fortune every time a GOP player would pledge to work closely with their coach; such easy pickings.

So, let me do a bit of story time on @KanyeWest, since he thinks he's out of The Sunken Place. And I can't thank @JordanPeele enough for his metaphor.
*stirs tea in teacup*.
I have a confession. The only reason why I am not mad at @KanyeWest right now is because I have held a petty grudge against him for many years because he had a mother with a Ph.D. who taught Literature at Chicago State University, yet he named his first album, "College Dropout."
I did not mean to hold the grudge that long; but it just continued because of everything I would feel every single time I saw that album and thought about not only his Mother but everything at Chicago State University, home of the Gwendolyn Brooks Black Writer's Conference.
