I support Kanye West.
I donāt care if this is āout of characterā for a leftist to support a multi-millionaire who has openly flirted with fascism but thereās a much bigger issue here regarding Kanye West and the tremendous amount of scrutiny heās received in the media for years.
Kanye is autistic. He was late-diagnosed at age 47 last year after having been previously misdiagnosed as bipolar. Anyone whoās familiar with his behaviours can clearly tell heās autistic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH3gc09kjQEIām autistic as well. I canāt live alone. I dropped out of college at age 20. Iāve never worked a real job. I currently live with my mother who is ableist as fuck. When she gets too old and becomes disabled herself I will move in with my allistic sister so I donāt have to be my motherās caregiver. All my life Iāve experienced nothing but hate for my autistic traits and inability to live up to allistic social norms. I donāt recognize social hierarchy and have a strong sense of Justice which innately threatens capitalism.
The reason Kanye is important to me is because him being maligned and cancelled is an autistic civil rights issue. He made a song about Hitler, so what? The Alchemist made an album entirely made up of Zionist samples called āIsraeli Saladā and never got cancelled for it despite Zionism being identical to Nazism. Him being a billionaire doesnāt bother me at all because 80% of autistic people are unemployed. Kanye needs to be supported for one very good reason: Autistic people can only win equality and acceptance when weāre allowed to unmask without consequences. Kanye being cancelled and hated BECAUSE of his autistic traits like being outspoken and not recognizing social hierarchy sets back the progress of the autism acceptance movement by decades. Autistic people deserve the right to unmask and live as our authentic selves regardless of how much it triggers allistics. We arenāt responsible for allistic feelings or accommodating allistics by masking. Masking is psychological torture and the main reason the primary cause of death for autistic people is SUICIDE.
We have a moral duty to support autistic people even if theyāre autistic people we donāt like. When you attack a famous autistic for unmasking youāre attacking ALL of us. Also stream Bully in order to pay Kanye reparations for eugenics (something every autistic person deserves).
