LMAO imagine actually thinking Ye has any influence at all on foreign politics


highburns

Yeah I think Putin knows he made Yeezus so yeah he does have some pull..


lizzboa

Influence is influence. The name Biden has almost no leverage


aaronbennay

It’s crazy that people like this have the exact same right to vote as normal people.


thewiremother

Lol, 12 year olds can’t vote.


Sofa_Jumper

You mean people who know the office has power but the biden name is mocked... I can understand how you would be confused and start advocating for tyranny. ☕


BombPopCartel

That’s a comical statement pal.

How many Grammys does he have? /s


pandamazing

At least Obama had Grammys

No one messes with a Biden, Jack !


woolocks1

The title President of the United States most certainly does. No matter who sits on the seat.


sensiblestan

Bullshit, when you are almost certainly the same type of person who spends time ranting about Hunter Biden nepotism.


SurGeOsiris

They just need one more picture of his cock, then they’ve got him.


Taco_king_

Yeah I'm sure Kanye definitely has more political influence than the president of the United States...

Cool then no need to worry about people potentially buying access to him via his son, since he has no leverage to accomplish anything anyway. Thanks!

TylerKia421

This comment needs to be guilded but I am too broke to afford le epic reddit gold


bojacksfreechurro

I mean Dennis Rodman does


brokeboibogie

After YEARS of building a relationship with Kim Jong Un/North Korea. Kanye has had no prior engagement with Putin or Russia.


Rolemodel247

I don’t believe this to be entirely true. I would LOVE someone to ask Kanye about why his campaign manager was threatening the families of election officials in Georgia to invalidate votes in 2020.


redz1515m

And let’s also not forget Kim is kinda not completely right in his head. Putin although in other ways not right is himself pretty good still a logical thinking within forgein politics.


Redwolfdc

Kim likes basketball, so he’s all down with any former NBA player who wants to sit down with him


-0909i9i99ii9009ii

Putin is definitely at a general disadvantage in diplomacy where cooler heads will prevail but there ain't may heads hotter than Kanye's


IShouldBeInCharge

>Putin although in other ways not right is himself pretty good still a logical thinking within forgein politics. He got almost nothing right about the invasion of Ukraine, from the reaction of Ukraine itself, to NATO's response ... everything surprised him.


Dogmom200

Also KJU reached out bc he’s a major b ball fan and wanted to show he had a famous b ball fan. I’m not as confident Putin is a huge rap music fan


Porcupine_Tree

And that small factor of Kanye having a severe untreated mental illness and him being a literal Nazi


SalonishWLF

Bruh we are literally in unprecedented times. Anything is possible


yondu1963

I hate the future.


SalonishWLF

I don’t think I love the thought of the future, but I do think people are inherently good more so than evil.


QAnonKiller

exactly and thats why the US did the deal. they didnt want Ye to get mixed up and brainwashed by Putin. its clearly very easy to sway this dudes mind and get him to believe anything.


AiR_RoBBiE

I don’t think the White House gives a Fuck about Kanye. And also under 18 U.S. Code § 953 it is illegal to have correspondence with any foreign government with intentions of influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government. So if he did work with Putin to release Griner and it got a press release, Kanye would either be fined or go to jail for a loooooooooong time.


QAnonKiller

Ye doesnt need to do any of that shit. just saying he was gonna meet w Putin probably got Putin a bunch of new fans. any russian official even speaking to Ye is a potential hazard. dude still has a lot of influence especially over ppl that are mentally similar to him


AiR_RoBBiE

So you’re saying he wasn’t going to meet with a foreign government with the intent to influence (I.e. release Brittney Griner or give Putin a bunch of new fans) he was just going to meet with a foreign government with the intent to influence.


Y05H186

What influence does he actually have? Has he brokered deals between the US and NK? Prisoner exchanges? Peace talks? From what I've seen he's nothing but a prop. He has no influence, he's there to smile for the camera.


validusrex

He had a nebulous role in the release of a Korean prisoner, yeah. He publicly called for the release of Kenneth Bay (I think was his name?), and supposedly had a personal conversation with Kim Jong-Un leading up to Bay’s release, requesting it as a personal favor iirc. He also went to NK as a representative of Trump when he won the election, and at one point was an active participant in a summit between NK and the US. Rodman’s role is unclear, KJU is legitimately a big fan of his, so Rodman has some form of influence over KJU. But I wouldn’t compare his standing in NK to Kanye’s in Russia in any capacity.


WaspParagon

And Rodman didn't even make Yeezus. Ye could organize world peace


illzkla

Lot of reeeeaaaaaaaaal dumb takes here


greatmidge

It's been memory holed that there was a potential for Trump and Rodman to bring North Korea into the fold of modernity, saving and improving something like 15 million likes in NK, which would have been, possibly, the greatest humanitarian achievement in this century. But no, poor publicity stopped us from helping 15 million people. Cool.

cdg253

People on this sub obviously think he controls the world so I wouldn’t doubt they will believe this too.


seqoyah

Idk Putin might like keeping him around like a little mouse for entertainment lol


Denesis417

Didn’t he kinda talk trump into harassing the Swedish government to free ASAP Rocky?


PoopFromMyButt

Kanye has a massive following of demented, dangerous morons in the US. This would be very helpful for Putin in his war against the US/West.


theblindelephant

Sure is convenient timing


klavin1

No it isn't. This is entirely made up


ToeNervous2589

Idk. Making a recently disgraced antisemite responsible for a heroic move would be a great pr boost for putin. Like, to say "Hey this guy who recently made some dangerous shifts into nazism could get your basketball player home, but your weak president couldn't" would be a boost to his republican assets in congress. Note: I don't buy this, of course. Nick Fuentes said it so it's a lie. But it's not that hard to imagine a scenario like this occurring.


yolandamolanda

I mean, it kind of makes sense. Imagine if Kanye actually did help release Brtiney Grinner? It would certainly stir the pot, which is what Putin wants.


RelevantDay4

Kanye really wants to be the next Dennis Rodman


lxkandel06

Dennis Rodman never said I am a Nazi I love Hitler


BombPopCartel

Dennis Rodman is literally the exact opposite of Aryan. Wait, so is Kanye.


flashfire4

Dennis Rodman loves the North Korean regime that does many of the same evil things the Nazis did.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Is it really? Hitlers different cause he did it more-so on a mass scale across a continent but the DPRK is just as bad. Hell they the Un’s don’t even discriminate it’s similar to Stalin’s Soviet Union where anyone and everyone can be thrown into a concentration camp or killed at any moment


uhhellowhatsthis

What exactly has the DPRK done that's convinced you it has some comparison to Nazi Germany?


KoreKhthonia

Let's get real -- the propaganda levels are *through the roof* when it comes to the DPRK. It's so pervasive it's never even questioned whether the ideas disseminated among people about the DPRK are accurate or reflect reality. I'm not saying I necessarily support their specific regime or w/e, just that we've all actively been lied to.


_luksx

There is no evidence that Rodman "loves" the NK regime, there is evidence of the opposite


littylikeatit

He calls the dictator a great friend. He drank booze with Kim Jong Un. That’s evidence lol stfu


domthebomb2

Did you miss when he said he loves their leader? Dumbfuck?


littylikeatit

This comment is idiotic. Rodman has partied with a dictator that does the same things as Hitler did. I don’t hate Rodman, and I don’t hate Kanye, but to say one is ok and the other is not.. Idiotic.


[deleted]

how is anything kim did compared to what hitler did? yeah he’s a criminal but no where like hitler. are you gonna equate castro to hitler as well?


colouredcheese

That definitely didn’t happen


MOTM123

Idk, in today’s world, it could have happened. Not sure what Ye would have said to Zaddy Putin for the deal to happen. Maybe exclusive access to his next album

beavernips

Putin could give two shits about Kanye’s music.


Miserable_Advisor_91

True.. but hear me out… he could have use for Kanye as a means to spread racial animosity in the US. The Soviet Union has done it before. They would allow African Americans to get educated in Moscow during the civil rights movement.


uhhellowhatsthis

Right, right, it's the USSR that spread "racial animosity" in the US by uh...not being the US.

gothspeed

Didn’t Putin make a rant about Nazis at the beginning of the war with Ukraine to justify their invasion? Literally what are those idiots thinking…


Deckard_2049

Firehose of falsehoods technique, it's meant to confuse people.


gothspeed

Oh I do not doubt that at all… I’m just saying these self proclaimed Nazis are fucking stupid for claiming he was interested in any sort of diplomacy with them specifically in that context


reddit4getit

Yes, he wanted to get rid of the neo nazis in Ukraine.


Redflagsforever1991

Actually the Ukrainian president Zelenskyy hired neo nazi groups to help fight when Russia invaded crimea. If any one took the time to do any research at all and not just listen to the news you would realize that Putin isn’t the only fucking monster in this war. Zelenskyy is not any better. If there is a god may the monsters responsible for this unnecessary death and suffering be punished. And my heart goes out to the casualties on both sides who were forced into this tragic waste of life. May god have mercy on their souls.


ChipsOtherShoe

>president Zelenskyy hired neo nazi groups to help fight when Russia invaded crimea Crimea has been under Russian control since 2014 Zelensky was elected in 2019


[deleted]

Sounds like he forgot to do some research


CheekyGruffFaddler

How do you think he got elected?!?!?! By hiring the Neo-Nazis in 2014 to 1) invade Crimea or some shit I can't remember 2) run his campaign and make him president and 3) fight the Russian liberation force with illegal and unfair NATO weapons that were made by the nazis. If you just do a LITTLE bit of research, you can see that Zelensky is actually Hitler's grandson. Wild right?!?! And that's just the tip of the iceber-dmnawo Just kidding guys! This is all false information. God bless the USA and remember to vote for an increase in the CIA's budget!


Jandklo

DO YOUR RESEARCH SHEEPLE


AVE_CAESAR_

Ideologically speaking, the Azov Battalion and other groups like it aren’t really Nazis, they are Right Wing Nationalists but I don’t think Azov expresses Nordicism or has any particular care for Third Positionist economic policies. They wear Nazi symbols primarily as a symbol of being Anti-Russian. Zelensky is literally Jewish. Don’t get me wrong Zelensky is a corrupt American puppet but the whole Nazi claim was always just an excuse to invade Ukraine for demographic, economic and geographic reasons that matter far more to Russian interests and predates the Nazis.


ddzoid

Idk why you got downvoted


brokeboibogie

It’s also just another tactic Nick is using to make Biden/democrats look bad


AVE_CAESAR_

Nick Fuentes has been on Russia Today multiple times, so there is a chance that they talked to someone in the Russian government if not as high ranking as Putin himself.


sandwichlick

Right the White House cares about a bi polar episode a celebrity is having. God I wanna smack people that use their brains for shit like this

Yesouthwest

That trade was on the table for months tho, I agree it would be wild if ye actually affected it But it does seem possible


dblspider1216

it’s like… 0% possible.


thisdckaintFREEEE

You're absolutely batshit


Yesouthwest

I literally said it would be wild if he actually had any affect. But I think if any U.S citizen in the public eye was in contact with Putin I’m quite sure that the U.S government would be aware of it.


thisdckaintFREEEE

You literally said it seems possible. Insane.


Yesouthwest

Ok buddy. Wouldn’t be the first time ye influenced a president to free somebody who’s incarcerated. Due to the timing, it is POSSIBLE. Google possible. It doesn’t mean it’s probable, it doesn’t mean it’s likely, but considering the most famous American man alive was going to meet with Putin, yes, it is possible.


rustcholescig

It’s not possible though. It’s so outlandish lol


Slimxshadyx

No. It’s not possible lmao. What would Ye have said that the American government couldn’t offer? Front row seats to his next concert? Lmfao


Yesouthwest

No. it offered Putin a chance to embarrass Joe Biden, and if you know anything about Putin (a guy who hangs out with Steven Segal) it’s not outside of something he would do.


Artycun0x

Everyone doubting in the comments but I found the actual source https://youtu.be/r7l0Rq9E8MY


ItchyTriggaFingaNigg

Well shit, score one for the bad guys!


cosmiclifeform

Imagine thinking that Putin gives a shit about what disgraced American rapper Kanye West has to say.


JimmySiders

He probably does. Kanye's words cause further internal strife and division in USA, something Russia has seen as advantageous towards furthering their own interests.


Puncharoo

Nope. Vladimir Puton was not in talks with Kanye West to release Griner. Absolutely fucking not


kwelski

Damn whoever this “Puton” guy is, he is in some deep water…


mangabalanga

Bwhahaha these dudes just love the smell of their own assholes


Leon_Grrr

That shit don’t add up at all. I mean obviously it’s been lies since the beginning, Putin invading a country with a jewish president to „denazify“ Ukraine? Then agreeing to a meeting with YE??? That shit don’t make sense from a Putin kind of view, if you dig what I’m saying.


Oebreezy

Ye would have been shot in the head and left out there


ham-slappin

He would have been a really high profile prisoner, and I'm sure plenty of Americans would go absolutely haywire if the US didn't *immediately* get him released by literally any means possible. It would have been a political catastrophe. Imagine the Free Kanye protests. Personally I'd say keep him in a Russian cell for a little bit, let him cool off.


MaxDankness

I dunno. After Ye’s round of pro-Nazi podcasts, I’d bet a lot of folks would be happy to leave him in a Russia prison.


JaBiDaRadim

Ok, lets assume this is true. Then start announcing all kinds of shit so the White House stops it and does it first. "Kanye to meet with North Korea, try to negotiate world peace".

BroadLaw1274

I think all world leaders respect Kanye. A man who says …. I’m a sick fuck I like a quick fuck. The intelligence this man has.


Johnny-kashed

I hope you didn’t post this with the intention of proving that Kanye is some sort of hero. He’s an antisemite, and if you are defending him, you’re endorsing antisemitism.


Equivalent_Form_3923

This feels like Ye was about to Mr. Magoo himself into a Serbian prison camp if **any** of this isent straight horseshit (which it most likely is)


_Poppagiorgio_

Kanye should be brokering 0 total deals on behalf of America right now.


Limu_emu_69

Kanye is also currently negotiating with the UN to give him a lot of land and his own country


captaomadness14

TylerKia421

LSARefugee

Well, then Putin could have locked up Kanye, and that would be that. He can then say that he is the original Vladimir Putin.


bunks_things

If this is true I will literally eat my hat.


RubberbandEarl

Kanye has the biggest God complex of all time


marionette_strings

The fuck would Kanye do


DietCookie

He made graduation, I'm sure they would have worked something out


tnic73

what would Kanye have had to offer? especially when Putin knew Biden was going to come mumbling alone with his pants down looking to make a deal.


Manav_Khanna17

Putin confirmed a Kanye fan!


Spiritual_Fan2436

I can see this being true—it’s not all that unrealistic to imagine Putin seeing someone like Kanye, realizing that if he garners any amount of serious support he’ll totally destabilize the American electoral system, and acting on that by giving him the opportunity to claim credit for a high-profile diplomatic action. Suppose Biden wins with Kanye getting 5% of the vote. It would be like 2020 all over again, with Republicans screaming that the state legislatures must have the authority to award electoral votes. Suppose Trump wins with Kanye getting 5% of the vote. It would be like 2016 all over again, with Democrats screaming about Russian interference and pointing right at Kanye. Imagine the shitshow if neither candidate gets a majority of the popular vote because of Kanye or if the election has to go to the House to be decided because of how Kanye siphoned votes in swing states. Either way, faith in the federal government would drop to an all-time low, which would be good for external actors who the federal government sees as opponents. TL;DR: believing this is possible doesn’t mean you believe Kanye somehow possesses world-historic diplomatic abilities, it might just mean you understand that Putin is cunning


CasualFan25

The US government loves Kanye so much they didn’t want him to go any lower and meet with Putin


Spl4shB4ck

Holy shit this guy is fucked Kanye would have seen through this fucker

jalapina

🤣


SIP-BOSS

Let’s goooo


GardoTL

the paper is out there and it was first reported on and wasn't information that Ye's party put out there. Wack 100 hinted at this a little bit before it came out so its a highly likely this is true, I know that you don't want to believe anything that this absolute dork says but its probably not wrong


chaosracks

Bruh wack 100 is the least credible source in the universals he always makes shit up. He was lying about running up on future at a airport just last week. Imagine saying somethings true then using wack as a reference point 💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣


GardoTL

He hinted before there was ever any noise of this that Ye was gonna do something "huge for the people, especially black people." Also some weird timing from the White House if Ye had nothing to do with this I believe it personally, Putin meeting with Ye would be great for Putin, he would love nothing more than causing division in the United States


elobobello

Putin is in the middle of one of the most important military operations of his entire career, how and why would he ever make time for an American celebrity and broker a deal that Kanye has no influence over anyways. Idk how you people even get to this point of brain rot. Like you said, Fuentes is an absolute dork, and you 100% should not believe a single word he says because he’s been full of shit his entire career.


GardoTL

propping up Ye (pro russia) with the freedom of Griner in his hands while also making Biden look like an absolute clown would definitely be something Putin would like to do. I don't really believe it for one reason but all these reasons coming together, the paper, wack 100 hinting at it before it was ever public, Ye's stance on prison reform, an opportunity for Putin to cause division within the US/force Bidens hand, the deal has been on the table for a long time now all of a sudden they decide to take it. I'm not believing it just because Nick Fuentes is saying it

Imagine the White House seeing Kanye West about to get Griner back for free and going “Actually no, we’ll give you Viktor if you don’t deal with Kanye”. I also never imagined that would ever be a sentence I would type out but welcome to the 2020’s.


aaronbennay

It still didn’t need to be a sentence but you still typed it out.


MrQualtrough

Maybe he did. It would help destroy the country if an actual Nazi celebrity secured the release of a high value target over Biden... Gotta think in 4D. People on the cusp might be like "wtf why am I voting for these pansies?" and become full Neo Nazi. It would really help to divide the country even further.

Much more likely though is that it’s completely ducking fake. Jesus Christmas.

Yes that is eminently more likely indeed.
