RESTRICTED

Kanye West Restricted on Instagram After Post Saying Jewish People Control Diddy

The rapper’s post came on the heels of an interview with Tucker Carlson where he compared himself to Alex Jones.

Kanye West’s tumultuous week began with backlash over a “White Lives Matter” shirt and culminated with Instagram restricting his account after he made anti-Semitic posts. West posted a screenshot of his text conversation with Sean “Diddy” Combs, where he insinuated Combs was being controlled by Jewish people. The American Jewish Committee, an anti-hate group, called out West for his “dangerous” comments, including in his rant during an interview with Tucker Carlson where he likened himself to far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. A Meta spokesperson said Instagram deleted posts from his page and restricted his account, although they didn’t specify which specific posts broke their rules. West took to Twitter to post a photo of him with Mark Zuckerberg, saying “Look at this Mark… How you gone kick me off instagram.”
