Kanye's net worth is somewhere over a billion. He is not the half-witted nut case the US media want us to believe.

No more than any other billionaire anyway.

So Parler would be a good place to learn the new patois, not that I use it but to understand.

Agreed. My judgement of his intelligence was based on his three-hour interview not his bank account but my wording does make it seem that way.

It does if you've made that money.
Dumb people get conned out of their earnings pretty quickly, see almost every other musician.

Have you ever heard about the insane things they did to him? They went full MK Ultra on him.
He's a force of nature to survive that with a shard of his sanity. This is worth seeing.

BPD mothers usually have an overly close relationship with their sons without proper boundaries.
He was groomed to be a constant support and companion for someone who isn't there anymore.
The unnecessary surgery wasn't the only issue with that situation.
This does make it seem like the woke wound him up to be an unthinking warrior repeating their mantras but when that caused him to take the award off of Taylor Smith he got such a backlash from the same people for actually doing what they preached it broke the spell.

There is a huge market and desire for a good social media platform, which isn't manipulated.
Will Kanye succeed where Trump failed?
I have little confidence that a centralized platform can fill this market need. Decentralized all the things!

I had a Parler account a while back and they censored dissenting views also. I agree that decentralization is the way.

There is already decentralized...
Decentralized is hard. Xmpp/jabber exist. Gnu social exists. Email exists.
But most people don't want decentralized. They want someone else to do anything hard for them. In fact you can even tell them that you'll do it for them, but you'll be the one who owns the pecker or twat pic they privately send to someone else and you are gonna scam everything looking for keywords to sell to marketing companies, and they'll happily acquiesce...

Buying a social media platform, to speak the about those you're not supposed to speak about.

I'm betting he got it for somewhat less than Elon is paying for Twitter.

Ahhh so the optics to the layman (or what the media will tell the layman) are that conservatives will embrace him because they're anti-semites despite being the party that licks Israel's asshole the most at every opportunity?
I thought they were going to use his very planned outbursts to push through hate speech legislation (they still might). This dude's a snake and he comes from the serpents den.
