The fact of the matter is, no matter how much vitriolic hate West gets – and oh yes, he’s getting it – he has actively changed culture. Just by speaking up boldly and bravely in the face of Hollywood’s thought police, he’s secured his icon status.
Icons shift thinking. Icons go against the grain. Icons challenge views and speak frankly, even if they are the only ones doing so.
The fact that West has come out shows that it’s OK not to vote Democratic. He’s a hardworking black man who realizes personal freedom doesn’t come from the left’s stranglehold.

“Yeah black women supporting Trump are lunatics. Good leftist talking point. Racist and misogynistic,”
No, but Scientologists are lunatics. And she’s one of them - but I’ll give her a life time pass as I said I would.
Being as you didn’t mention Scientology, my comment stands as posted.

Does he still like fish sticks?
BfL...thanks.
Dumb ass is thinking lunacy always means Scientology
Nice to see you show your vitriol and ignorance on the news form as well as the Religion Forum
Your hatred for blacks,
Christians and Jews shows you are an equal opportunity racist and religious bigot
You’re dismissed
“Dumb ass is thinking lunacy always means Scientology”
Syncro thinks Scientology is rational. Got it.
“Your hatred for blacks,
Christians and Jews shows you are an equal opportunity racist and religious bigot”
I don’t hate any of the three. But you think Scientology is rational.
“You’re dismissed”
You’re a moron and a liar. But that’s to be expected from someone who thinks Scientology is rational.
