Kanye and Candace: The Redpilling of Black America and The Rise of Free Thinking
IWB ^ | Bob Shanahan

“Kanye West On Red-Pill Rampage,” read the first half of ZeroHedge’s Monday headline on Kanye’s recent twitterstorm endorsing Candace Owens and referencing Scott Adams. The Left is melting down over this pop culture icon becoming, as the kids say, woke.

I used to think Kanye West was a blithering idiot, or as President Obama called him, “a jackass.” However, over the years I have realized his musical genius, pop culture relevance, and openness to new ideas and concepts. Despite his decision to marry Kim Kardashian, he is showing his intellectual side in sparking a dialogue on free thinking and being black in America. Though this might all be a big publicity stunt, Kanye, who met Donald Trump in 2016 after becoming president and touting his praises, appears to have taken the red pill.

On Saturday morning, West tweeted out: “I love the way Candace Owens thinks,” after Owens spoke at a Turning Point USA event at UCLA on Friday. This united the Left in its elevated level of outrage over Kanye daring to stray from their diseased groupthink. They cannot stand a pop culture icon endorsing someone they see as “alt-right.” Turning Point is “a youth organization that promotes the principles of fiscal responsibility, free markets, and limited government.”

It’s cool to be a revolutionary instead of a sheep. Kanye is just way ahead

I’m sure Kanye has taken lots of pills of many colors.
Also pretty sure that your trashy clickbait blog isn’t
in a position to tell anyone about it.

Who knows? Maybe Kanye and his step-father-in-law, Bruce Jender—the Trump-supporting, Adam’s-apple-shaving Republican—have had a few talks about the Republican party and the fact that not everyone has to think like a democrap.

Kanye is a lot like Morrissey, there’s something for everybody to be offended by.

I’m very skeptical and leery of some of these “woke” celebrities.

I’m expecting that, any minute, Roseanne and Kanye will come out and say, “just kidding!”.

“Kanye West On Red-Pill Rampage”

Takes courage ... liberals are big on revenge... they WILL 'reach out' to hurt Kanye. He's in my prayers.
