Well, he did address people who would be free from prisons, and such people, presumably, would be those for which the thirteenth amendment makes an exception to the ban on slavery. It wouldn't be a novel argument that the prison system in America, because of the way it falls disproportionately upon blacks and leads to a lifetime of sevitude through continual imprisonment, is a form of slavery (specifically excluded from the thirteenth amendment). I've heard that argument before.

Wasn't there a music award presentation where KW took the prize from the winner and handed it to someone else? About which President Obama was quoted as saying, "The man's a jackass!".

Wasn’t that the “Imma let you finish” embarrassment with Taylor Swift and Beyoncé?

Below is his tweet.

this represents good and America becoming whole again.  We will no longer outsource to other countries. We build factories here in America and create jobs.  We will provide jobs for all who are free from prisons as we abolish the 13th amendment. Message sent with love

Talentless moron AND a fuckwit.

We knew it.


The republicunts will be happy.  An Uncle Tom they can pretend to like.

I've heard this, too.

I am pretty sure getting rid of the 13th amendment isn't the solution, however.

One thing for certain that needs to be done is de-privatizing prisons.

I'm sure not all prisoners are treated like slaves. they should just do that more.

That's a disrespectful thing to say about our future president. Kanye 2024
I ask that out of respect, when talking about future president Kanye West, you all refer to him as 'future president Kanye West' from now on.

If future president Kanye West wants to own a few slaves, I think he's earned it.

He's just Ye now. 

I had been wondering how America would get a worse president than Trump, now I think we have a contender.
