Kanye West: 'Fake News' Is Like 'Torture Porn' For Losers
breitbart.com ^ | May 1, 2018

Worldwide cultural influencer and rap superstar Kanye West set himself free in a TMZ interview on Tuesday, saving his most scathing rebukes for the media.

“When they refer to fake news because it can be skewed and stuff, it is like the media and the liberals and the echo chamber and all that is having the most sore loss of all time,” West said in a wide-ranging talk with TMZ founder and host Harvey Levin.

The Grammy-winner said the media had become toxic especially when talking about President Donald Trump.

“It’s like torture porn,” Kanye West said. “We are going to keep showing you negative, negative, negative, negative, negative, when — these are human beings,” he said.

West appeared frustrated that the media was taking him out of context and attacking him for coming out and wearing one of Trump’s Make America Great Again campaign hats.

“Don’t try to ‘whacko-Jacko’ me for saying that, because that’s what the media is trying to do, they’re attacking me with these smoke screens that I am not going to fall for,” West said.

West took to Twitter on Tuesday to tweet a segment from his TMZ interview in which he declared how we will no longer be “controlled by the media.”

He actually used the word “liberals” in a derogatory way.

God certainly does work through the strangest folks.

But I’m willing to forget what an idiot he was if he keeps talking great like this.

There should be some polling done to see if his comments have made any of his fans reconsider some of their positions on issues.

Sooner or later, people are going to wonder why “liberals” are some of the least liberal people on the planet.

“Liberal” is losing because it can NOT be liberal. It can only pretend to be liberal. Real liberality looks back to God, and doesn’t posit a class struggle. Faux liberality is worse even than Robin Hood. It’ll rob from the poor too, because that keeps them where their votes for the racket come from.

“Candace Owens”

She is great. I hope she gets a bigger platform. Maybe her own show on Fox News.

Maybe his “mother” in law is having an influence. Not Kris, the other mother.

Kanye West is helping to expose the intolerance and irrationality of “Progressivism”.

I believe the "other" mother in law is busy planning "her" marriage to a 21 year old transgender "lady".

Looks like this guy has been bottling up these sentiments for quite some time.

He’s really getting stuff off his chest. That’s great!

The way I read Kanye is that the harder liberals attack him the further away from the left they push him.

Today, ‘liberal’ doesn’t mean what is used to, like ‘gay’ doesn’t.

‘Liberal’ now means progressive, which means social Marxist, anti-Constitutional, anti-God and anti-liberty.

The left views blocks as pets or amusing zoo animals and when blacks don’t obediently act the part Libs get infuriated.

The Kanye imbroglio is showing this.

Cuomo(?) on CNN

Prof hill (para)

“Kanye needs to be under control...”

NAACP president (para)

“Kanye is betraying the very art form that created him...”

“Kanye is betraying his fans who made him what he is...”
