Eh just like Donald trump stoked the flames of white supremacist violence with his rhetoric, Kanye and Kyrie Irving being visibly antisemitic definitely can contribute to flare ups of violence against Jewish people. Also let’s not forget that the antisemitic shooting that happened here a few years ago wasn’t done by the demographic you’re alluding to.

That was Black Hebrew Israelites which are their own form of insane.

Right and Kanye and Kyrie Irving are parroting a lot of their talking points so please don’t minimize the power they have with their platforms.

I'm just saying they devote 1/3 to Kanye and mention qanon, oath keepers, 3 percenters, etc. a total of 0 times.

Okay but much of the rhetoric that’s being pushed right now is tied to language often used by groups like the Black Hebrew Israelites and Nation of Islam which aren’t even in the same Universe ideologically as the groups you mention.

Are there any visible 3 per centers, qanon, etc with platforms equivalent to Kanye that are saying antisemitic things right now?
