Musk finally took action after three days of vile and erratic posts by the rapper

Kanye West has deactivated his Twitter following days of racist, misogynistic, and anti-Semitic posts with the website’s owner, Elon Musk stating that his account would be hidden from view for most users.

After days of posting that was widely reviled as racist, sexist, misogynistic, and ignorant by celebs and other social media users alike, the rapper, 47, thanked Elon Musk for “allowing me to vent” on Sunday night before announcing he was “logging out” of Twitter.

His offensive erratic behavior was allowed to continue for three days, during which time he posted statements such as “I love Hitler,” and “I’m a Nazi,” as well as claiming “I have dominion over my wife,” in a post referring to Bianca Censori appearing fully nude on the Grammys red carpet.

In a post following West’s announcement that he was “logging out”, Elon Musk, the billionaire owner of X, formerly Twitter, said: “Given what he has posted, his account is now classified as NSFW [not safe for work]. You should not be seeing that anymore.”

The erratic and incessant posting, much of it deeply offensive, has caused people to fear for the mental stability of the music star. But on Sunday he uploaded a video claiming he was sound of mind, despite a triad of Tweets taking aim at his old rival Taylor Swift during Sunday’s Super Bowl game.

“I know you’re all thinking I’m going something through right now and I’ve got bags under my eyes and s***,” a groggy West told his followers.

He added, “I wouldn’t want nobody to like, do an intervention on me – that’s why I wanted to put this video up cause you’re all thinking, ‘Ye really going it through something right now. Somebody need to go get them or go take his Twitter and stuff like that’.”

He added that he would not apologize for or take back any of his tweets, saying: “I got my ideas out; that’s all that happened and that was very freeing for me – and it was worth everything, it was worth everything to do that.

“But I’m just telling you calmly that I am in a good space – I’m really in a positive space, it’s cathartic.”

Meanwhile, Milo Yiannopoulos, the owner of the talent management company that represents Kanye West, said his client was taking an indefinite break from X, according to the Hollywood Reporter. “Ye [West] has deactivated his X account for the time being,’ Yiannopoulos said on X/Twitter Sunday evening.”

Jonathan Greenblatt, the chief executive of the Anti-Defamation League, blasted West’s “dangerous behaviour,” the New York Times reports, calling his posts “a flagrant and unequivocal display of hate.”
