Was gonna post this in the other thread, but since that was closed I'll say it here.
We know what has to be done:
Kanye West Needs to Be Defined as a "Terrorist Ideology"
Nothing is going to be solved about the misogyny, racism, xenophobia, homophobia, transphobia, islamophobia, antisemitism, and other bigotries of Kanye West until those in power show the conviction to say that we will NOT tolerate Kanye West's presence.
Brown vs Board of Education wasn't enforced through "nice words and reaching out". It wasn't enforced through just "deplatforming". It was enforced by Eisenhower sending the national guard down to Alabama and implying that if that anyone tried to physically rebel to keep explicit school desegregation from happening, then they would be shot by the national guard.
You want an end to the atrocities done by Kanye West? Then ironically you have to take the "law and order" dogwhistle/attitude and apply that approach to Kanye West. That includes:
- Defining ANY public advocacy of genocide as a literal death threat under law
- Having NATO Intelligence employ surveillance operations on confirmed Kanye West
- In the US it would involve trying again at an Equal Rights Amendment
- A legal requirement that all Kanye West found guilty of ANY kind of hate crime are required to go through psychiatric rehabilitation for "Political Psychosis" IN ADDITION to other punishments
- Laws barring people who make death threats from working in certain fields such as medicine and education.
