Kanye West Wins ‘Antisemite Of The Year’ Title After Amassing Numerous Votes
A couple of months ago, American entertainment polymath received backlash for his antisemitic statement.
Kanye West has been ‘voted’ the “Antisemite Of The Year” by the American non-profit watchdog group StopAntisemitism.org.
The group made the announcement in a video congratulating Ye for “propagating the most Jew hatred in 2022.”

The video clip cited examples of Kanye West’s offences including the infamous “death con 3” tweet that led to his first Twitter suspension, and highlighted interviews as examples of Ye “referencing antisemitic tropes of Jewish greed and obsessions of money.”
StopAntisemitism.org also used a publicly shared text conversation with P.Diddy as proof of West “falsely insinuating Jews control Hollywood and the media.”

The non-profit organization wrote in a video shared to Twitter on Sunday (December 11, 2022), in which it recapped West‘s hateful remarks throughout the past few months.
The organization wrote: “Congratulations to Kanye West, disgraced rapper and fashion mogul, for being voted the 2022 Antisemite of the Year, Mazel Tov* Kanye West, for propagating the most Jew hatred in 2022 and winning this year’s dishonor.”

StopAntisemitism’s Executive Director Liora Rez also gave a statement to the effect, she said:
“Kanye uses his celebrity platform to push dangerous antisemitic tropes about Jews and power, and he refuses to stop.
His continuous onslaught of bigoted statements has resulted in horrific antisemitic acts perpetrated by white supremacists, Black Hebrew Israelites, and other fringe groups looking to cause Jews harm.”
Ye, who has been criticized for weeks over his repeated antisemitic remarks, recently doubled down on his love of the bigoted German mass murderer Adolf Hitler during an interview with Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes in Los Angeles.
