I was very wrong about Kanye's revolutionary potential.

Horrifically, disastrously wrong.

    I was very wrong about Kanye’s revolutionary potential.

    not to rub salt in the wound, but what made you think a billionaire rapper with a sweatshop shoe brand and a history of Nationalist lyrics (Jesus Walks) and Antisemitic lyrics (St. Pablo) had "revolutionary potential?"

        Kayne has a really uh, unique shtick nowadays in which he will be like "White supremacy good" and then deflect pushback like "hey I have a unique perspective as a black man and you're doing a cultural erasure on me"

          I would like to point out that this maneuver is and has been known as the "Uncle Ruckus".

          He won't even say that. He'll shout incoherently for about twelve seconds and then storm out with a hand full of cookies.
