We really do love to see it, don’t we folks? Every sad sack of shit out there is trying to get their hooks into him. Several podcasts with limited markets have instantly gained national attention. Hacks like Cuomo and Piers are attempting to claw back their purchase by having him on to rant and rave. The pièce de résistance has to be Candice Owens getting him to buy her husbands failed and nearly bankrupt media platform. That one was a Michael Jordan level grift.

In light of this shit, one thing that makes me question my heir to the Trump throne prophecy is Ye’s ability to get totally taken to the cleaners. Don was no stranger when it came to letting the media use him to get ratings. However Don ALWAYS made sure he got his beak wet. Ye’s eyes are never on the $$ prize because he is truly insane. Once you think god is talking to you you’re on borrowed time. I hope I am wrong but this is starting to feel more like Charley Sheen 2011 and less like Trump 2016. Regardless I am totally dialed in.

    With this bit though I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just claimed to be the case in order for them to try and give it more publicity.

        Yeah Candice Owens has certainly earned the benefit of doubt. 🙄

          303abuser how is claiming that she’s pretending Ye will buy her husband’s app to help give it more publicity giving her “the benefit of doubt” ?

          They could have all, Ye included, just come up with a scheme to do that based on how much Musk supposedly buying Twitter has put Twitter in the news.

          Heck, she and her husband might even have paid Ye to say that he’s buying it in return for the advertising it will generate.

            In line with her being a compulsive liar, sure, but it’s extremely likely and within her character to take advantage of a dumb person with mental issues. Plus, no one with any sense is paying anything for parler, it’s worth nothing.

                Which adds plausibility to the idea that it’s all a publicity stunt.

                I know Ye’s a bit erratic, but I’d be surprised if even he was daft enough to fully shell out for it.

                  This is Kanye West we are talking about, not Elon Musk or Donald Trump. What does Kanye have to gain by helping Candice Owens? He wants to own this thing because it allows him to go around crying that people aren’t referring to him as media magnate or tech mogul. It is all about him being lauded as a genius, and acting as a front man for some far right grifters does not help in that regards.

                  Also, I absolutely think that Kanye believes that he will be able to rally millions upon millions of supporters if he can get his word out. He keeps saying it in these disastrous interviews. He is beyond deluded and hasn’t a clue that 50% of his fan base are the Rhouses of the world; people who will NEVER be lining up in the infantry for the DC/Hollywood take over of the Ye Imperium.

                      What Zack said. He’s mentally ill, the Charlie Sheen comparison is bang on.

                      If they make him some kind of honorary CEO while gifting him shares it might.

                      I’m not saying it’s impossible that he will buy it btw, but considering this comes after the Twitter debacle you can’t rule out it being a copycat publicity stunt.

                      Also, if I recall you have been highly sceptical that Musk has genuinely intended to buy Twitter? In which case it seems confusing that you can’t also entertain the idea that Ye is also pretending.

                            I don’t think it is the case here because pretending to buy Twitter is exactly the type of thing Elon Musk would do. Elon is always thinking about the Tesla quarterly earnings report. He perpetually creates stunts to keep his sham stock price up. That isn’t at all Kanye’s bag. The dude is absolutely atrocious with money and basically takes it for granted. Remember when he was swimming in debt and Kim agreed to create that point and click iPhone game so she could pay it off? He is not focused on $$ at all, which will be a huge part of his collapse.

                            Also, lets just say he is actually a willing catspaw for Candase Owens and George Farmer. How much could Kanye really expect to get paid for that? Mid 6 figures at most, imo. He thinks that kinda pay day is beneath him, and he doesn’t currently need that kind of money. That is a Trump grift plan and simple.

                                Well yeah, and Ye had been talking a fair bit with Elon recently so might be trying to copy him.

                                And Ye is the kind of person who perpetually creates stunts to keep his name in the headlines…

                                Maybe not if he thinks it’ll give him more influence? He greatly admired and respected Virgil Abloh when he became Head Men’s Artistic Director at Louis Vuitton, because Ye saw it as a rare example of a black person gaining significant power and influence as a creator and Ye wants there to be more similar examples in the world of business (and that’s despite it not being as if Abloh had actually bought LVMH). So Ye might be willing to accept a similar kind of directorial offer if it was made to him at Parler.

                                The clout and ability to shape the company and be a black role model in tech could clearly be attractive for Ye alone, even if any pay might be relatively insignificant to him. And as I say, the pay could also be in share options as well, which could be something Ye could delude himself in to thinking he could eventually make worth something.

                                      Is there no finer sight on the internet than Hugo arguing the meat and bones of his hypothetical conspiracy theory about what “YE” may or may not be doing with a social media platform built for zombies? What an utter, utter spastitruncheon.

                                        Piers Morgan. The parasite’s parasite. He’d interview his dying mother if it meant ratings/relevance for him. Basically, anyone who is a fan of that wanker deserves AIDS all over their face and in their food.

                                                Piers is such an unctuous worm. I watched the clips he’s dangled and its all the same blah blah blah from Kanye, but with Piers atrocious interviewing skills as an added bonus. Kanye sitting there grinning ear to ear after literally calling himself a genius, and Piers goes “oooh thats right big of you mate. Well done, proper like”. Shut the fuck up. Not shocked to hear he is close with that grasping tub of goo Corden. Cuomo was infinitely better at handling old Ye, and he is a complete cretin himself.
