Kanye West released a new "song" called "Heil Hitler" last Thursday, in which the antisemitic musician continues to spread his vile ideology. We won't get into all the small details here, but the disgusting creation praises the Nazi tyrant, includes the phrase "All my niggas Nazis, nigga, heil Hitler," and even contains a sample of part of Hitler's speech from 1936.
Beyond that, the single's cover features an illustration strongly resembling the Nazi swastika. Horrifying, but the truth is it's hard to raise an eyebrow at the antics of the 47-year-old West, who lost it long ago and seems increasingly disconnected from reality.
But it doesn't end there, as an accusing finger must also be pointed at other parties who may not openly support West, but certainly continue to grant him disturbing freedom of action.
About three days after "Heil Hitler" was released, most leading social networks, streaming and music platforms, including YouTube, Spotify, and SoundCloud, are doing their best to eradicate the song from their servers – and that's obviously exactly what should be done.
However, and it's hard to be surprised, the social network X (formerly Twitter), which Elon Musk owns, has not yet removed the abhorrent creation, as well as the various posts and reposts by West and his associates discussing it.
We urge all universities and students' unions to refrain from playing Kanye West at summer balls, SU bars, or any official events. There should be no space for hate on campus in word, in action, or in music. pic.twitter.com/Y6ixDTOiL0

It's unlikely that it will happen. As of the time of writing these lines, the "Heil Hitler" clip has already gathered more than 7.7 million views on X, while another post among many that West has shared in recent days, showing social media star and alleged misogynistic criminal in his own right, Andrew Tate, playing "Heil Hitler" in his car, has garnered 3.8 million views (West's response to the video was "Praise God"). Horrifying.
"Heil Hitler" claims to be the third single from "Cuck," West's 12th studio album, whose release date has not yet been announced. The two previous singles from it, "WW3" and "Cousins," deal with Nazism (though less than the new song) and incest, and were also heavily criticized.
