    "Antisemitic song" is rather understating things...

    source
    • eureka@aussie.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      On the other hand, I enjoy finally seeing a correct use of the word “antisemitic” by ABC News.

    If only he could be denied entry back…

    Dude does anything for a spotlight so even this hitting news is a positive validating his relevancy

      I have never been a fan but I feel like it’s a lot deeper than just craving attention. The dude has serious unchecked mental problems.

      “Source”: My best friend has bipolar and we lived together during many episodes - the similarity is uncanny, minus the bigoted stuff

        He was diagnosed with bipolar but has recently said he was misdiagnosed and instead has been rediagnosed with autism.

        A grain of salt, but there appears to be something under the salt nonetheless.

    Hooray for an actually correct understanding of what Anti-Semitism is!

  • eureka@aussie.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Hey OP, I noticed at the bottom of the article it credits that it’s a republishing of the original article by ABC. Always good to link upstream if you notice, for example the upstream article might notice a mistake and correct it.

    • Zagorath@aussie.zone ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Yeah I agree. Using the upstream source also helps keep the canonical URL so cross-posts and reposts can automatically be detected to show users where conversations about the topic may have already happened.

    Completely separate from the anti-Semitism, the song itself is pretty awful. How can someone with so many bangers fall so far.

      Par for the course

      The mf has no fucking bangers if he was reduced to forcing games to play it in the background through non diagetic sound.

        Not true, Kanye’s back catalogue is amazing. Anything before Yeezus was gold. It’s been hit and miss since then.

        music in the background through non diagetic sound.

        I had to look it up but it seems to me you are simply referring to background music.

    If you call an album Ballocaust , you might need to expect a little controversy at least.

    You mean yet another antisemitic stuff from this person…i lost count of the thigs he did so far.

    I never knew you can get denied entry for being a bigot.

    source
    • But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Canadian here, since we have similar laws. You have to be a real extreme bigot to be banned entry on that alone. I mean you have to be the type of idiot who would publicly declare himself a Nazi and a racist, like in a song or something.

      Americans are always uncomfortable with Canadian hate speech laws. But 99% of us don’t ever have to worry about them, because 99% of us aren’t running around calling ourselves nazis and asking for the extermination of an ethnic minority.

        also in a time like this where anyone can be called an anti-semite just for criticizing israel, western countries are actually touchy/. he might have better luck in a asian country.

    Sweet. Hopefully this means we will deny Musk and Trump and all the rest of them too

    source
    • princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Unfortunately, turning away Trump would have far greater diplomatic repercussions that I just don’t see Albanese risking. Trump could pull America’s embassy stuff, or enact further tariffs or sanctions. If Albanese wasn’t ready to condemn (or at least not congratulate) the Iran strikes then he’s not going to be ready to deny Trump entry while he’s head of state.

      Musk, on the other hand, well if we denied Kanye entry then we better fluffing deny him too. It’s not like it wouldn’t clearly be a well supported move considering we’ve had one of the greatest drops in Tesla sales YoY globally.
