Now one thing is certain, being Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) is indeed not easy. How shall one find himself amidst a thousand controversies within days is beyond imaginable to me.<\/p>\n<p>Ye has been under the public radar for a couple of days now, though this is not the first time the rapper has been under public scrutiny for making controversial statements. One of his most famous controversies stems from back in 2009 when he disrupted Taylor Swift&#8217;s acceptance speech for Video of the Year at the 2009 MTV VMAs. He also has been previously suspended from Instagram for 24 hours after using a racial slur in reference to comedian Trevor Noah.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65573\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-65573\" style=\"width: 456px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload_inited  wp-image-65573\" src=\"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/images\/2020\/06\/taylor_swift_receives_video_of_the_year_award_onstage_during_the_2019_mtv_video_music_awards_-_getty_-_h_2019__0-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"MTV\" width=\"456\" height=\"257\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-65573\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Taylor Swift<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Presently, Ye has been locked out of his Twitter and Instagram accounts after posting anti-Semitic messages. Days before that he drew widespread criticism for wearing a &#8220;white lives matter&#8221; T-shirt during Paris Fashion Week (PFW). Well, this is not where it stops. Ye also made a distasteful comment on the portrayal of overweight individuals in media as &#8220;demonic&#8221; and even publicly slammed Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber amidst the PWF controversy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lizzo Vs. Ye&#8217;s distasteful comment on obesity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During an interview with <em>Fox News<\/em> which was uploaded on 6th October on You Tube, the rapper made an absurd comment on obesity in America and targeted the singer Lizzo.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When Lizzo loses 10 pounds and announces it, the bots\u2026on Instagram, they attack her for losing weight because the media wants to put out a perception that being overweight is the new goal,\u201d said Ye. \u201cWhen it\u2019s actually unhealthy. Let\u2019s get aside from the fact whether it\u2019s fashion and &#8216;vogue&#8217;<em>,<\/em> which it\u2019s not, or if someone thinks it\u2019s attractive, to each his own.

Where do we draw the line between freedom of free speech and the civil manner of leading a conversation without hurting the sentiments of the masses?

So, is the world a better place if we stop people like Ye from expressing their opinions? Can, we ever get rid of biases that are ingrained in the hearts and minds of people, and is the best way of stopping them is to shun their opinions or not to respond to them?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>What are your thoughts on Kanye&#8217;s actions?<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kanye West under the radar for his anti-Semitic comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":25064,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63,39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity","category-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=24687"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24687\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/25064"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=24687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=24687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.somethinghaute.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=24687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
