Howard Stern compares Kanye West to Hitler through anti-Semitic commentaries

Howard Stern attacked Kanye West after the designer doubled up on his anti-Semitic remarks by saying he “absolutely did not” apologize for doing them.

“You have to hear what it is, that guy is in you,” said the host of the radio show during his SiriusXM Show on Wednesday. “Kanye was funny and crazy. He’s like Hitler now.

“I’m really tired of people justifying his behavior by saying,” Well, he’s just mentally ill. “

Stern – who grew up as a Jew – also criticized the West’s claims that “Jewish media” had stopped reporting him, saying, “If a newspaper article does not indicate that you are some sort of designer or genius, it may not be because they are Jewish, but maybe because they just don’t think about who the hell you are or what you do.

West, 45, fell into the hot water last week when he swore there would be “con 3 deaths on JEWISH PEOPLE” in a deleted tweet.

Asked about his disturbing post in conversation with Piers Morgan, rapper “Heartless” revealed that he knew his comments were racist – yet continued to support them.

“Do you regret saying that?” Morgan, 57, asked to which the rapper joked: “No. Absolutely not.”

The British broadcaster went on to say that West “should” apologize for his racist remarks that were “as racist as everything you say, what you went through and any pain you experienced.” However, West made no objection and instead argued “why” said it.

“I fought fire with fire. I’m not here to bathe. He’s a different type of freedom fighter, ”he argued.

While some have cited West’s obvious mental health issues as reasons to dismiss the rapper, Stern – and other media moguls – refuse to let Ye’s comments go away.

This view was echoed by media director Ari Emanuel, who said that West’s mental health problems did not give him a ticket to spread anti-Semitism.

“Some of West’s behavior has been dismissed over time, citing mental illness given that he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after hospitalization in 2016 ”- CEO Endeavor wrote in an article for the Financial Times on Wednesday. “However, mental illness is not an excuse for racism, hatred or anti-Semitism.”

Emanuel, who is a Jew, continued: “Millions of people suffering from mental illness do not perpetuate hateful ideologies. Others dismiss his comments as mere words, but hateful words too easily become hateful acts. “

He then called on companies – which have yet to break ties with the rapper – to stop selling all Yeezy products and streaming West’s music, in an effort to stop the spread of hate “no matter how much money is at stake.”

Several other celebrities such as John Legend, Jamie Lee Curtis and Morgan Spector have spoken out against the rapper who is reportedly in the middle of a psychiatric episode.

West’s media tirade began earlier this month when the rapper decided to make his models wear the “White Lives Matter” T-shirts during Paris Fashion Week.
