Morgan Spector stunned by Kanye West’s anti-Semitic tweet
Morgan Spector was shocked to hear about Kanye West’s unheard of anti-Semitic tyranda in which he promised to “go to death con 3 ON THE JEWISH PEOPLE.”
“What the hell is he talking about,” the “Gilded Age” actor, 42, exclaimed to Page Six after hearing about the tweet from Saturday night being removed.
Defcon on Jews? What does that mean? ”Spector, who is Jewish, asked Page Six at the PaleyFest NY party on Sunday afternoon.
After filling in the details, the star of The Plot Against America simply said, “Dude.”
“I think anti-Semitism in this country is both real and violent, and always present as part of the neo-Nazi ideology, white supremacy, it never disappears,” he added.
Spector also noted that rapper “Gold Digger” had “smarts” and “an instinct for the drama of bulls.”
“You will pay attention to me. For two days we will only talk about me, ”he said. – You know she has this gift. I don’t even know who knows what they really believe?
“I don’t know him personally at all, but I think a lot of what he does is just,” Look at me. Never stop looking at me, ”and I think the best thing we can do is just keep it quiet.
The “Motherland” graduate noted that the important question was whether the tweet was “immediately mocked” or applauded.
“You see these mass killings and these various manifestos … it’s crazy,” continued Spector. “It’s always been crazy and always been stupid, and just because it’s crazy and stupid doesn’t mean you can’t be killed. It’s unfortunate. “
Spector was not the only celebrity to express disgust at the rapper’s tweet. John Legend, Jamie Lee Curtis, Sarah Silverman, and Josh Gad have expressed their disgust.
“The holiest day in Judaism” [Yom Kippur] was last week. Words matter. The threat to the Jewish people once ended with genocide, “Curtis, 63, wrote on Twitter. “Your words hurt and incite violence. You are the father. Please stop.”
After his shocking threat and the reactions that followed, Instagram placed restrictions on his account.
Spector attended the “The Gilded Age” event at the Paley Center with cast members Cynthia Nixon, Christine Baranski, Louisa Jacobson Gummer, Denée Benton, Morgan Spector and Carrie Coon.
