Kanye West calls for reintroduction of slavery

[Aegon]

I think future president Kanye is a very talented producer. But as far as I can tell, he's not very well-educated in pretty much anything else.

The dumb ass should stick to rap and stay out of politics.

Why is it that whenever someone disagrees with a celebrity's political opinion they say: "They should stick to [x] and stay out of politics." It's like a script. Conservatives do it until a celebrity supports them and vice versa.

They're American citizens. They should be involved in politics, like all of us should.

Am I getting KW wrong? I think he wants slavery, but limited to prisons.

No, he's making the known argument that the prison loophole in the 13th amendment led to essentially a second era of enslavement of African-Americans. This happened in the South for decades post-Reconstruction, and black people are still targeted for drug crimes at disproportionate rates. What's stupid is: the Republicans are the ones perpetuating it. So he has no idea what the hell he's saying.
