Rapper Kanye West tweeted today (Sunday) a response to being blocked on Instagram – and his Twitter account was also blocked. The Instagram block came a day after he shared a screenshot of a text conversation with rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, which allegedly accused him of being controlled by Jews. On Twitter, West, who changed his name to “ye”, tweeted: “I can’t be anti-Semitic because blacks are also Jews. You tried to play with me and hide in the dark anyone who opposes your agenda.”
In the post that got him blocked on Instagram, West wrote that he would use Combs as “an example to show the Jews who said that to call me, that no one can threaten or influence me.” Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, announced that the rapper had violated company rules and policies, and that content from his pages had been removed. A spokesperson for the company did not elaborate on which publications were involved.
